Of him we m ight say what W hittier wrote of another champion of righteousness; The world redeemed from superstition’s sway Js breathing free for thy sake to-day.

He was not trained in a theological school ami did not belong to the j.rlstly party or wear the union label, so that when he began to preach an officious priest tried to stop him.
