     "The old Book of Sermons from which I copied the above just as it
     was written, was found in the attic of my great, great,
     grandmother's home, Martha Egerton who married William Henry Brown.
     Martha Brown was granddaughter of John and Elizabeth Egerton and
     was daughter of their youngest child, Wilmot Egerton and his wife
     Ann Judkins. The old Book of Sermons is now in my possession, and
     came from the old Brown home in Macon, Warren Co., N.C. The back of
     the book is gone and some pages are missing, but the writing in it
     is very plain."
