Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The History of the Pilgrims, or a Grandfather's Story of the First Settlers of New England
Mr. Allerton. It is not strange that you should never have heard much about the Pro testants, for they are not often called by that name. And yet we are Protestants ourselves. There are several kinds of Protestants. There are the Episcopalians, the Presbyterians, the Congregationalists, the Baptists, the Methodists, and some others, who are all Protestants. Those who lived in England in the time of Queen Elizabeth were Episcopalians, or the Church of England, as they are often called. I need not stop here to tell you any thing very particular about the church of England, for you will see, as I go on with the story of the Pilgrims, what kind of a church it was at that time; though I am happy to say that they are-very different now, especially those who live in this country.
