"O CHURCH OF ENGLAND BEGINNINGS IN CONNECTICUT 13 On the 13th of September, 1722, the cloud broke. Then Timothy Cutler, rector of Yale; Jared Eliot, pastor of Killing- worth; John Hart, pastor of East Guilford; James Wetmore, of North Haven; Daniel Brown, tutor at Yale; Samuel Whittelsey, pastor of Wallingford; and Samuel Johnson, pastor of West Haven, presented their written declaration "to the Rev. Mr. Andrew and Mr. Woodbridge and others, our Reverend Fathers and Brethren, present in the lib...rary of Yale College." "Reverend Gentlemen, "Having represented to you the difficulties which we labor under, in relation to our continuance out of the visible communion of an Episcopal Church, and a state of seeming opposition thereto, either as private Christians, or as officers, and so being insisted on by some of you (after our repeated declinings of it) that we should sum up our case in writing, we do (though with great reluctance, fearing the consequence of it) submit to and comply Avith it, and signify to you that some of us doubt the validity, and the rest are more fully persuaded of the invalidity of the Presbyterian ordination, in opposition to the Episcopal; and should be heartily thankful to God and man, if we may receive from them satisfaction herein, and diall be willing to embrace your good councils and instructions .in relation to this important affair, as far as God shall direct and dispose us to it."^^ All the signers were graduates of Yale, with the exception of Cutler — a Harvard man.
