CHAPTER VII. The Simultaneous Change. DR. THOMAS makes the point, (pp. 6, 7) of prior presumption ag-ainst Dr. Whitsitt's theory that about 1641, some fifty Baptist congregations simul- taneously chang-ed from aspersion to immersion; repudiating- "a custom to which they were tradi- tionally attached, which was in universal use, in behalf of another custom which nobody among* them had ever practiced or heard of;" and that too "without any newly assigned or intellig-ible motive, etc. " Dr. Thomas... presents this objection with p-reater emphasis and in strong-er light than the subject demands, but it deserves respectful consideration. There is some difficulty in the way of answering- it for the lack of voluminous testimony contempo- raneous with Crosby's account of the change, which definitely describes the process of such a revolution; but there is sufficient evidence to show that the chang-e did take place, and how it took place accord- ing- to the "methods" adopted for the restoration of immersion by the Baptists of Eog-land.
