A. writer in the American Historical
Record for November, says that gown
and bands were generally worn until
this century, by Presbyterian and Con-
gregational ministers. A bas-relief on
the tomb of Rev. Nathan Bassett, a
Congregational preacher at Charles
ton, s. G., who died i'm 1888, represents
him i'm gown and bands. There IL a
similar representation on the tomb
stone of the Rev. Francis Worcester
of the same denomination, who died
in Hollis, New Hampshire, in l7S3.
Wolsey and Whitfield both preached
in full clerical dress. DIR. Claiming,
the Unitarian, is said TO have done SO.
The Lutheran church still hangs to the
gown, probably because Luther is said
10 have introduced it in the pulpit. Be
fore his time, 1t was academical rather
than clerical.
