Download or read book The Filleys written by Donald Southerton and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2005-06 with total page 204 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Filleys: 350 Years of American Entrepreneurial Spirit provides snapshots into American entrepreneurship history for a broad readership through a series of biographic essays. These stories, centering on the accomplishments of one family, provide vivid insights into entrepreneurialism in America, spatially across the country and temporally over three centuries. Author Don Southerton guides the reader through multiple generations of the Filley family beginning in 17th century Puritan New England. The saga includes the rise of the Yankee trader, land speculation, and the development of American manufacturing. The Filley business endeavors represent a slice of the American entrepreneurial experience. Moreover, this experience was shared by many thousands of other Americans whose families can be traced to colonial times. Together, they raised families, embraced capitalism, and built this country. The portraits of people and events in this saga provide us with a revealing and instructive glimpse into times long gone, and allow us to connect vicariously to a part of our collective past.

Threatening as was the aspect of affairs, the Revival party, as the majority of the church, did not yet anticipate tho loss of church standing and privileges, but as they were willing that others should exercise that 8;iine liberty of choice they claimed for themselves, they now drew up a paper, agreeing. "That if those in the church and society who wished to settle Mr. Cogswell as their pastor and follow Saybrook Platform, would allow them their just proportion of the meeting-house they had helped build, and free them from all charge of Mr. Cogswell's settlement or support, they would oblige themselves to keep up and maintain the public worship of God according to the rules of the Gospel, and not look upon it as their duty to hinder' the settlement of Mr. Cogswell, but otherwise should forbid his ordination by any council whatsoever." This proposition and threat shared the fate of the previous protest--receiving, apparently, no consideration from the society. Another effort to stay proceedings was made in the name of the society. Forty nine inhabitants of the first society in Canterbury, many of them in full communion with the church, signed a document, October 29, certifying, "That they were of the Congregational principles of church discipline according to Cambridge, and not according to Saybrook Platform, that it was their hearts' desire and prayer to God that they might have a faithful minister of the New Testament, not of the letter but of the spirit, settled as pastor of this church, and although some of them did vote for Mr. Cogswell before they knew his principles, yet since it had become manifest that...
