Table of contents: title: The following pages contain a short exposition off Catholic doctrine, and Catholic practice, with the chief authorities and principles on which that doctrine and practice are founded. To the well-informed it can offer nothing with which they are not already acquainted ; but it is hoped that it may prove useful to two classes of persons ; to the young who are preparing themselves for their first communion, and to the more aged, who have been suffered to :grow up to manhood without a competent knowledge of their religion.; title: The writer has made use of the catechetical method of question and answer, not with any intention of composing a regular form of catechism, but for the sake of the running commentary with which such questions and answers may be accompanied, the best and readiest way of comprising within a small compass a great variety of subjects. The reader, therefore, will look on many of those questions merely as pegs to hang the notes upon without further preparation or introduction.
