  • Conversion and Revolution in New England Throughout the Fall Of
    Introduction: Conversion and Revolution in New England Throughout the Fall of 1765, Stephen Johnson, the pastor of the church in Lyme, Connecticut, excoriated Britain’s Parliament for the Stamp Act and recent trade regulations. Such “evils” imposed on “two millions of free people,” he warned in a series of newspaper editorials, threatened to “destroy the good affections and confidence” between Parliament, King, and America.1 In December, he preached a fast-day sermon (an occasion called by the colony for corporate lamentation) that elucidated the meaning of disrupted “affections.” The “present crisis,” he admitted, was “perplexing and exercising” because it compelled American colonists to make a choice between loyalty to Britain and their “great, provincial, continental, or national purposes.” He put it boldly: “if there be left to the colonies but this single, this dreadful alternative,--slavery or independency,--they will not want time to deliberate which to choose.” Johnson reiterated the need for moral deliberation. As he argued in his newspaper pieces, the “liberty of free inquiry is one of the first and most fundamental [liberties] of a free people.” New Englanders ought to be prepared to determine their political allegiances. Johnson repeated his provocation as a simple question: “what shall we do?”2 This question implied more than the possibility of resistance to parliamentary regulation. It hinted at independence from the British empire. Johnson asked his parishioners, the people of Connecticut, and all Americans to imagine a complete transformation of political loyalties, a renunciation of their status as subjects of the English monarchy. He contended that they had the moral capacity to change their allegiances.

  • Declension in a Bible Commonwealth
    Declension in a Bible Commonwealth BY PERRY MILLER I. VEN a Puritan society, even a people chosen of God, if E they undertake to settle a wilderness, will meet with hardship and sometimes with disaster. Leaders will die, since men cannot live forever; winds and earthquakes strike equally the chosen and the unchosen; caterpillars will con- sume the grain of the righteous unless God contrive a very exceptional providence to divert them, while saints no less than other men must run the hazard of pestilence, drought, the measles, or shipwreck. When such afiüictions overtake a community of the unregenerate, they know not what to do. They put the blame upon second causes or upon blind chance; they have no way to overcome the evil and must either endure or perish. But a holy commonwealth of Puri- tan saints is fully equipped with a method for meeting emergency. At the first fiick of the lash, the whole body politic assembles for a ceremony of public humiliation and communal repentance, wherein the people take the responsi- bility for the disaster upon themselves, asserting that the fault is entirely theirs and that God has punished them justly and necessarily for their sins. Thereupon the way for ac- complishing their relief becomes obvious : they must resolve to mend their ways and beseech the Lord to look with favor upon their reformation. Whole days should be officially set apart for these observances, called in New England "days of humiliation" or "fast days," to be observed not with complete fasting—^that extremity was Popish superstition— 38 AMERICAN ANTIQUARIAN SOCIETY [April, but with abstinence from all but the essentials of life, even, according to one instruction, from the pleasures of marriage.

To understand the part played by the ministers one must first forget the populous, industrial state of the twentieth century with its large cities, good roads, auto- mobiles, radios, and daily press, and turn back one hundred and sixty years to a Connecticut of about seventy towns and villages ranging in population from two or three hundred to five, six, or seven thousand, a large number having less than fifteen hundred inhabitants. Its people were for the most part farmers, its roads were poor, books were hard to obtain, and newspapers were small and published weekly in three or four towns only.

With some changes, these form the earlier and the concluding portions of this volume. With letters and other memoranda of our father and mother the record is continued to the end. It is seldom that two lives pass on in such an unbroken course together for so many years ; for, though many changes came, their home remained the centre still for all the scattered family. By a succession of circumstances or perhaps by a special adaptation in themselves, ithad also been the home, from first to last, of more than two hundred persons in many varieties of relations, and for periods of months or years, — for such they wished to make it to all who entered its doors.
