HISTORICAL SKETCH OF The Laws AFFECTING PROTESTANT DISSENTERS. A CONCISE Sketch of the various penal and remedial enactments affecting Protestant Dissenters, which have emanated from the legislature of this country in successive periods of its history, will be deemed by none inappropriate as an introduction to a summary of the existing laws. It may be esteemed essential, by those, who, duly estimating the importance of adhering in the substance of the work to the contemplation of laws actually in force, in order to preserve an unity of impression on the mind of the reader, are, nevertheless, aware that the subject cannot be fully understood, nor its merits appreciated, without pushing the inquiry beyond the limits which define its present extent. In either point of view the design admits of justi fication. B |
