To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
" The law against Quakers, passed in 1655, distinctly prohibited any punishment causing injury to life or limb. As to Bap- tists, their own historian, Backus, says : " They (Baptists) were in Plymouth colony, where they had ever enjoyed much more liberty than any had in Massachusetts. " l The Ply- mouth colonists had learned toleration before they came to America.
In Connecticut the influence of Winthrop was directed in opposition to persecution. Laws were made against Quakers ; they were impri...soned until they could be sent out of the colony. A toleration law was passed as early as 1669. In this year the General Court declared " that all such persons being also approved according to law, as orthodox and sound in the fundamentals of Christian religion may have allowance of their persuasion and profession in church ways or assem- blies without disturbance. " 2 This law on its surface seems fair and liberal ; but it was doubtless rigidly enforced until, at least, the close of the century.
