Help with a book - didn't know where to post this.

Hi All,

I just got an antique book - published 1845

It is called - A Collection of Psalms and Hymns for the use of universalist societies and families - by Hosea Ballou, 2d. It is the 16th Edition. Published in Boston by Benjamin B. Mussey 1845

I haven't been able to find out any information on this book online and any help would be much appreciated...

Just trying to find out some add'l information.

Thanks in advance.

In Universalist history, the most well-known member of the Ballou family is Hosea Ballou (1771-1852), the great evangelist and theologian of Univer­salism. Others notable in denominational history are Hosea Ballou 2d (1796-1861), Universalist minister, historian, and president of Tufts University ; and Adin Ballou (1803-1890), Universalist (later Unitarian) minister, reform­er, and founder of the utopian community at Hopedale , Massachusetts .
