Pastor of the First Baptist Church, Providence, R. I.
Cloth, 12mo., 115 pages. Price $1.00 net.
Uniform with “Mary Dyer.”
An account of the visit of Dr. John Clarke, Obadiah Holmes and John Crandall, members of the Baptist Church in Newport, R. I., to William Witter of Swampscott, Mass., in July, 1651: its innocent purpose and its painful consequences.
“Dr. King’s pungent and conclusive essay is a timely contribution. He adduces competent evidence refuting the gratuitous insinuations of Palfrey and Dexter, who charged the Rhode Islanders in question with sinister political motives and excused their alleged maltreatment on that ground. Citations from original documents, with a bibliography, put the reader in position to verify the allegations of the author.”—The Watchman.
