W. Willmarth ("Collections of the Rhode Island Histor- ical Society, " Vol. VIII. , ) says, in Note 119, of the 56 THE MOTHER CHURCH Six Principle churches : " Many of them were dis- solved, and others became Calvinistic in doctrine and renounced the laying on of hands, at least as a necessary prerequisite to the communion. " And Dr. J. W. Willmarth, in a note in the same volume, p. 1 20, says of the old Philadelphia Baptist Associa- tion : The churches of that body held the "Calvinistic doc- t...rine" with great tenacity, and also practised the "imposi- tion of hands. " This ancient custom has gone out of use, in the course of time, among American Baptists, except in a few churches. It has been superseded by the "right hand of fellowship" [or "of welcome"]. In a few churches the old practice is still retained. They do not make it a "term of communion, " or a subject of conten- tion with their brethren, but are unwilling to abandon a rite which seems to them so scriptural and so significant of the gift of the Holy Spirit promised to the believer.
