Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Development of Baptist Principles in Rhode Island, 1636-1875: A Discourse Delivered on the Occasion of the Semi-Centennial Anniversary of the Rhode Island Baptist State Convention, at Providence, May 12, 1875 IN the year 1636, in the Opening Spring, a small com pany of men made a settlement within the borders of the present State of Rhode Island. They were but a hand ful in number, poor in worldly possessions, outcasts indeed from the society of civilized men, and they con structed for themselves but the rudest dwellings in the unbroken wilderness. The event, so inauspicious appar ently in its beginnings, has, however, proved to be one of the most memorable, not only in American history, but in the annals of the world. For here was inaugurated a government on an entirely new basis, embracing prin ciples hitherto unknown or unrecognized in the polity of nations.
