About 100 years ago the Union church
Of Weymouth and Braintree was Or
ganized. It was an oifshoot Of the old
North church Of Weymouth and q ques-
ton arose as to whether the new church
should adhere to the Trinitarian belief
Of the mother church Or embrace me
new Unitarian doctrine.
After considerable controversy, the
Unitarian idea prevailed, and the Rev.
Janos Perkins was installed 40 pastor.
Al a sort of compromise, however, u
was agreed that Mr.. Perkins should oc-
casionalIy exchange pulpits with either
Mr.. whitney Of Quincy or Mfr. Lincoln
Of bingham, both Unitarians. This Mr..
Perkins did for while, perhaps much
against his viii, but the practice soon
| fen into innocuous' desuetude.
Among the wealthy men of the town
was Capt. James White, who, although
liberal contributor to the financial end
/ OF the church, WAS not remarkable Tor
his piety. Capt White thought he was
called upon to see the agreement CARRIED
out. He was not always choice IN bis
language, and, although his English was
correct, it was at times somewhat Wig
orous.
1 One day he called upon Mr.. Perkins
and d conversation something like the
/ following took place:
@Mr. Perkins, you agreed when yoll
came here to exchange occasionally with
Mr.. Whitney or Mr.. Lincoln, didn't
\ you Z"
aYes, believe there was some under
standing of that kind
well, Mr.. Perkins, you don't Do i
nov"
@No, Capt White. am afraid Mr
Whitney and Mr. Lincoln do not prcacl
the gospel.
eDonst you think the people Of Quinc,
and bingham have the gospel breaches
4 10 them
4 can't say that do, Capt. White
Then why in don't yon so owe
