Summary

REMONSTRANCE OF JAMAICA PRESBYTERY WITH BAPTIST MISSIONARIES.

Page 196.

Extract from, the Minutes of the Jamaica Presbytery, which met at Cocoa Walk, on the 23d of June 1842.

“Inquiry being made concerning the letter of Remonstrance, from the Presbytery to the Baptist Missionaries, which had been left with our late clerk, in July last year, to be forwarded, and which both the Rev. Wm. Knibb and the Rev. T. F. Abbott have stated had not been received, it appears that owing to the death of our late clerk, so soon after his return from the Presbytery of that period, the letter had not been forwarded, and that it had only lately been recovered. It was, therefore, resolved, that it be forwarded without delay to the Rev. T. F. Abbott, and that in consequence of the public reference which has been made to it of late, both in this country and Great Britain, it be published, and that this minute be prefixed thereto.

“James Watson, Clerk.”

To the Association of Baptist Missionaries in Jamaica.

Goshen, July 14, 1841.

Dear Brethren,—We consider it a duty which we owe to God, as his servants in the work of the Gospel,—to you, our fellow-labourers in the same field, and to the people of this country, in relation to their spiritual interests, to expostulate with you against various practices in your churches, which strike us as injurious to the interests of religion.
