Letter to the Editor on Nonconformist Memorial and Act of Uniformity
A reader rebuts a Saturday Review piece, defending the Nonconformist Memorial and challenging claims about the Act of Uniformity. The letter asserts ejected ministers suffered greatly, defends Congregationalists' catholicity, and disputes who authored the act, noting Convocation and Clarendon influence and the 1660 Restoration. It argues modern Congregationalists trace closer doctrine to old Presbyterians and honors the ejected 1662.
