= Puritan parsons excOmmunicat-
ed Mistress Anne hutchinson, emptied
upon her head the phials Of their
wrath. cursed her in the name Of the
Great Jehovah" and cast her out, as
they thought and purposed, from the
compassion Of man and the mercy OF
God.
The parsons did not know that they
were accommodating themselves and
calling down upon their own heads the
eXecra tiOns Of the ages.
Anne Hutchinson, the daughter OF a
London clergyman, came TO Boston
with her husband in 1884, at which time

So Anne HUtchinsOn's meeting was

was hauled up before the court which,
after a mock trial. passed upon the
offender the following sentence Of ex-

you in the name of Jesus Christ and OF
