Works by John Bolles still extant:—
A copy of each of the following books, with exception of the eighth, is owned by H. Eugene Bolles of Boston.
1. “Application to the General Court holden in New Haven—1728.” A portion of the ending sentence in above pamphlet is as follows:—
“But we, on our parts, have had the witness of a good conscience towards God in all our sufferings and loss of all these things” (having recounted their persecutions) “and do make it our care to live inoffensively towards all men, except in the case of Daniel, Chap. 6, verse 5.”
2. “Good News from a Far Country.” This is an argument to prove that the Civil Government “have no authority from God to judge in cases of Conscience.”
3. “Answer to An Election Sermon preached by Nathaniel Eels.”
The last two published in one volume at Newport, 1749.
4. “To Worship God in Spirit and In Truth.”
An Answer to same was published by Jacob Johnson (pastor of a church in Groton, Conn.).
5. “Reply to Jacob Johnson, by John Bolles.”
