The Tennessean: A Novel, Founded on Facts (Classic Reprint)
England. They were part of the persecute! dissenters, who sought an as}lum in Qthe wilds of America of tiiose enterprising few, who landed atP lymouth, in sixteen hundred and twenty. JM ygreat-grandfather, by the fathers side, came over jtthe time I have mentioned. His name was Burlin--ton, though v%e now spell it Burlington. He professed Mhe presbyterian i-eligion, but it appears, fiom some of -fhis papers whicli are now before me, that he was by no means rigid. I find that he opposed those severe rules Jwliich were drawn up for the government of the newly lornied church, which tiiey styled The Dominion. jT hey enforced their laws without mercy, and without ,; lecency. None could be admitted as freeinen, jurymen, t)r magistrates, but members of the church. In sliort, .:)o office could be lield by any man in the dominion, who ;j vas not a member of the church. A number of these papers appear to have been a correspondence between ;his gentleman and his more zealous brethren. To itransciihe them all, would take up too much time, and answer no purpose, as all tlioe who are acquainted with the history of the times of which 1speak, must know too much of these lamentable truths. As a sample of tliose pious bigots, Jwill, however, copy one letter.(Typographical errors above are due to OCR software and don't occur in the book.)About the Publisher Forgotten Books is a publisher of historical writings, such as: Philosophy, Classics, Science, Religion, History, Folklore and Mythology.Forgotten Books' Classic Reprint Series utilizes the latest technology to regenerate facsimiles of historically important writings.
