Docke West was ebosen Moderator and Mr. Collins Stribe, the Counsel was opened by prayer seeking to God for Counsel and direction in the important Matters to be laid before them.


The Counsel then gave a full and candid hearing to a paper laid before them signed by 21 of the inhabitants of the town, containing a request that the Counsel would not proceed to ordain Mr Parmele to the work of the Gospel Ministry in this place, [in] which also their reasons against it were stated. After which the Counsel proceeded to a strick and carefull Examination of the Candidate, and were unanimously agreed that he appeared to be a person duely qualified for the important Office of the Gosp Ministry and after carefully deliberating the Objections which were made against Mr Parmeles being set apart to the pastoral Office amongst them the Council were of the Opinion that these Objections sen- tered in a Disapprobation of Mr Parmeles religious Sentiments, and that his Sentiments were in their Judjement strictly founded on scripture so that they judjed these objections to be groundless: the Counsel wer of opinion they ought to proceed to the Ordination of Mr Parmele and did accordingly set him apart by prayer and the true position of hands to the pastoral Office over the Church and people in this Town.

[It may reasonably be supposed that the above account of the ordination of Mr. Parmele was copied into the RecorIs about 25 years after the event, for Alvan Hyde, Jr. was born in 1794, and the writing has the characteristics of that of a boy in his early teens.
