To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
In order to accomplish the union of the Northern and Southern Churches, he contrived to have Ihe Rev. Dr. Bass elected Bishop of Massachusetts, and an applica- tion made to the General Convention of A. d. 1789, for his Consecration by Bishops Scabury, Provoost and White. Dr. Bass was not Consecrated at that time and it is thought that there was no expectation that he would be, but the election and application led to the unanimous adoption of a resolution in which the valid- ity of Bishop Seabur...y's Consecration was recognized. At an adjourned meeting of this Convention, held in Philadelphia on September 29, 1789, the Bishop of Connecticut was present with his Clerical deputies. But they would not subscribe to the constitution previously adopted until it had been so far changed as to allow the House of Bishops their ancient vetoing power, and the privilege of introducing new measures. These changes made, the Connecticut delegation affixed their signatures, took their seats in the convention, and so the Northern and Southern Churches were united.
