Synopsis

This book is a collection of documents related to the dispute between the Hollis Street Church and its former minister, John Pierpont, in 1841. The documents include Pierpont's remonstrance against the decision of the Ex-Parte Council to defrock him, his offer of a mutual council to resolve the issue, and the committee's reply to that offer. The book also includes Pierpont's rebuttal to the committee's offer. This collection provides unique insight into the inner workings of a major American church in the 19th century.
