Book excerpt: Excerpt from Historical Sketch of the First Baptist Church of Christ in Plymouth, Mass., 1809-1855 After r'equisite preliminary meetings. On the 12th of July, 1809, at nine o'clock in the morning, a little company of brethren and sisters, holding Baptist views, was gathered at the house of Stephen Bartlett, anticipating recognition as a Church of Christ after the New Testament pattern. Unworthy and ungracious in their own estimation, they are worthy esteem for the sterling qualities of their convictions and of their Christian lives. One of the twenty eight was from Middleboro, one from Kingston, one from Carver, and the rest of the seven men and three times seven women belonged to Plymouth. The council convened was composed of the pastor and one delegate from 'each of the following churches, viz.: First in Middleboro, Third in Boston, Third in Middleboro, First in Kingston, Third in Tiverton, and the records of their proceedings inclose names never to be forgotten in the history of Baptist principles in the Old Colony: Samuels, N elson, Glover 'and Abbott.
