A History of American Christianity

CHAPTER IX
30/31

The church founded in Boston by the Irish Presbyterians came in course of time to have for its pastor the eminent William Ellery Channing (Green, p.

11).
Since the organization of the annual Scotch-Irish Congress in 1889, the literature of this subject has become copious.

(See "Bibliographical Note" at the end of Mr.Green's pamphlet.) [125:1] The beautiful story of the processional progress of the Salzburg exiles across the continent of Europe is well told by Dr.Jacobs, "History of the Lutherans," pp.

153-159, with a copious extract from Bancroft, vol.iii., which shows that that learned author did not distinguish the Salzburgers from the Moravians.

The account of the ship's company in the storm, in Dr.Jacobs's tenth chapter, is full of interest.
