The Lord's Day From Neither Catholics nor Pagans An Answer to Seventh-Day Adventism on this Subject
This book is a mine of historical facts touching all sides of the Lord's Day observance from the apostles till the end of the fourth century. The testimony of all the early Fathers is given. High Catholic authorities are quoted locating the change of the day with the apostles, not centuries later. Personal letters are given from five great universities denying that the pagan Romans ever paid any religious regard to Sunday. Constantine's Sunday law is examined.

About the Author

D.M. (Dudley Marvin) Canright (1840–1919) was a pastor in the Seventh-day Adventist Church for 22 years, who later left the church and became one of its severest critics. He joined the church in 1859, at the age of 19, and rose through the ministry to a position of prominence on the General Conference, as an elected officer to General Conference Executive Committee the highest governing body of the Seventh-Day Adventist Church when the General Conference is not in Session. Among his other accomplishments Canright is responsible instituting their tithing system which continues on in the institution today.
As a close and personal friend of the Church’s Prophet (Ellen G. White) and many of its founders and early leaders ("Pioneers"), D.M. Canright enjoyed a privileged inside view of how the Seventh-Day Adventist Church evolved and it operated.
