Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from A History of the Baptists in New England The plan of this history was adopted in order that I might meet the requirements of the task assigned me. Regretfully I have been compelled, for lack of space, to omit much that ought to find a place in a history of the Baptists of New England. Yet I trust it will be found that, even in this brief review of a long and eventful period, the prominent facts have been clearly and faithfully presented. Concerning the earlier history of the Baptists of New England, Rev. Isaac Backus´ "History of New England with Particular Reference to the Denomination of Christians called Baptists," published a hundred years ago, has been to me, as to others, a treasure house of interesting and trustworthy facts. For his painstaking investigations, as well as for his personal worth and services, Mr. Backus should forever be held in honor by the Baptists of New England. Dr. David Benedict, in his "General History of the Baptist Denomination in America," published in 1813, devoted attention to a wider field than the Middleboro pastor, and so far as New England is concerned added little to what Mr. Backus had already done. Valuable material for the earlier period I have also derived from Dr. R. A. Guild´s "Chaplain Smith and the Baptists," with its numerous extracts from the diary of Rev. Hezekiah Smith of Haverhill, Mass., published by the American Baptist Publication Society in 1885; also from the "Diary of John Comer," published by the American Baptist Publication Society in 1893.
