O knihe
Excerpt from Memoirs of George Whitehead, a Minister of the Gospel in the Society of Friends, Vol. 1 of 2: Being the Substance of the Account of His Life, Written by Himself, and Published After His Decease, in the Year 1725, Under the Title of "His Christian Progress"
It has' been the lot of few persons to occupy an active sphere for so long a period of time as was the case with George Whitehead. He was born in the reign of Charles I. Under the Commonwealth, and in the reign of Charles II. He suffered many severe persecutions. He visited several times the court of Charles, to plead with him on behalf of the cause of religious liberty. These efforts were continued during the short reign of James II. And during the reign of William and Mary, when a brighter day dawned on the civil and religious liberties of England, he exerted himself, by personal and written representations, to obtain for the Society the free exercise of religious worship, the liberation of the members who, chie¿y for cc clesiastical demands, were still suffering cruel imprisonments, and the admission of the afiir mation of Friends instead of an oath in all civil cases.
