There is nothing new under the sun;
says an exchange; not even the Holy
Rollers" A small band of fanatics
known as the Holy Rollers had a
brief career in 1873, in the town OF
Hardwick, VT Their leader whose
name was Bridgeman, having had his
mind discomposed by frequent at
tendance at prayer meetings in the
neghborhood, professed to be inspired
from on high and was not long in en-
listing several followers The exer-
cises at the meetings of these fanatics
consisted of the most ludicrous and
foolish performances, such as fright
full yelling, barking in imitation Of
dogs and foxes, mimicry OF cuckoos
and other birds, jumping, swinging the
arms and rolling on the floor and
from the last circumstances they
were called Holy Rollers. Their
leader declared that they must not
shave, and they suffered their boards
to grow for several months, when it
was revealed to another Of their num-
Der that they must all shave, and it
was done.
\ These fanatics were countenanced
and encouraged by large numbers Of
the inhabitants of Hardwick and the
nelghboring towns. The pastor of
the Congregationalist church, Rev.
Chester, preached a vigorous sermon
against these absurdities, which was
published and widely circulated in
1888. Some Of their number were
imprisoned for disturbance Of relig-
ious worship and these fanatics were
dispersed.
These facts are set forth in much
fuller detail in Thompson's History
or Vermont published in 1S41. The
author was a clergyman of the Epis-
copal Church and professor Of natural
history in the University Of Vermont
and his narrative may be accepted as
a proof that in the modern Holy
Rollers history has only repeated 1t. |

Is simply ridiculous how easily some

claimed that Nixon had taken away
his powder patents as well as large

a controlling interest, and who, by
representing that he was without
financial means, secured from hin
