This is probably the original version/first edition of Henry Groves, 'Darbyism: Its Rise, Progress, and Development'. It is cited in a press article on 'Plymouthism' in 1869 as 'Mr Groves pamphlet, entitled, "Exclusive Brethren"' (see 'The Orcadian', 24 July 1869, British Newspaper Archive). Besides a new title, the tone of the later version is rather softer, as indicated in the preface to the second edition.

'The Orcadian' may have been right in attributing this pamphlet to Henry Groves but the Preface to the earliest edition of Henry Groves,'Darbyism: its rise and development and a review of "the Bethesda Question" '[accessible at https://books.google.com/books?pg=PP8&dq=Darbyism+its+rise+and+progress&id=zCrJ9MhkCsQC ] is dated 27 December 1866 and looks significantly different from this pamphlet.
