1863000774Providence: Sidney S. Rider 1863. In fragile condition. An 1863 reprint of the 1652 book. Originally printed in London February 1652. Complete Title is: "Experiments of Spiritual Life & Health and their Preservatives in which the weakest child of God may get assurance of his spiritual life and blessednesse and the strongest may find proportionable discoveries of his Christian growth and the means of it. By Roger Williams of Providence in New England." The title page is a reproduction from 1652. This 1863 reproduction is faithful to the original with the typeface of the period substituting the letter "F" for "S" and using what is now less conventional spelling. This was a limited edition reprinting of 500 copies. Roger Williams 1603-1683 was a religious reformer maverick and perhaps the first supporter of Native American rights. He is also credited as being the first in the American colonies to attempt to prohibit slavery. Williams was one of the founders of Providence Plantations in 1636 now known as the state of Rhode Island. Williams emigrated from England to Boston Massachusetts in 1631. After fleeing the Puritan Colony among many religious issues he also disapproved of the Puritans not buying the land in Plymouth from the Native Americans Williams purchased land from the Native American tribes to found the colony of Providence Plantations. Williams is of course well known for promulgating the concept of separation of church and state. He was also the founder of the American Baptist Church. The introduction in this volume is attributed to F.W. believed to be Francis Wayland and dated Providence Rhode Island December 1st 1832. Francis Wayland 1796 - 1865 was president of Brown University in Providence Rhode Island when he wrote this introduction. He served as president of Brown for almost 30 years. He was a Baptist minister and after he resigned the presidency of Brown he was pastor of the First Baptist Church in America also located in Providence. In 1835 town meeting members voted to rename East Sudbury Massachusetts "Wayland" in honor of Francis Wayland. In 1851 Francis Wayland donated money to the town to establish a public library one of the first free public libraries in the United States.

41947Selkirk: The Scottish Chronicle Press 1934. The Consecration of Samuel Seabury at Aberdeen on November 14 1784 and how through Suffering the dispossessed and shattered Church of Scotland made good and proved her fealty to Evangelic Truth and Apostolic Order. Pp.26/3list of the clergie in the dioces of Aberdeen at the Revolution 1688 black & white portrait frontispiece 2 further plates slight toning to pages. Red card covers creasing to lower front and rear corners spine rubbed and sunned. A scarce item. G. " A crucial date for members of the Episcopal Church in the United States of America is the consecration of the first Bishop of the Anglican Communion in the United States. During the colonial era there had been no Anglican bishops in the New World; and persons seeking to be ordained as clergy had had to travel to England for the purpose. After the achievement of American independence it was important for the Church in the United States to have its own bishops and an assembly of Connecticut clergy chose Samuel Seabury to go to England and there seek to be consecrated as a bishop. However the English bishops were forbidden by law to consecrate anyone who would not take an oath of allegiance to the British Crown. He accordingly turned to the Episcopal Church of Scotland which had no connection with the government having originated around 1690 with the non-Jurors: those Anglicans who having sworn allegiance to James Stuart would not during his lifetime swear allegiance to William of Orange and who were accordingly all but outlawed under the new dynasty and was accordingly free to consecrate him without political complications. In Aberdeen 14 November 1784 Samuel Seabury was consecrated to the Episcopate by the Bishop and the Bishop Coadjutor of Aberdeen and the Bishop of Ross and Caithness. He thus became part of the unbroken chain of bishops that links the Church today with the Church of the Apostles. In return he promised them that he would do his best to persuade the American Church to use as its Prayer of Consecration blessing of the bread and wine at the Lord's Supper the Scottish prayer taken largely unchanged from the 1549 Prayer Book rather than the much shorter one in use in England. The aforesaid prayer adopted by the American Church with a few modifications has been widely regarded as one of the greatest treasures of the Church in this country." justusanglican.
