A Good, complete and untrimmed copy. "Despite the fact that he was an unusually successful preacher.[Griswold] was expelled in 1797 by the Litchfield South Ministerial Association, ostensibly on doctrinal grounds, although it was generally believed that his political heresies were more responsible for the action" (DAB).
