From "John Waller 1741-1802" Biographical Sketches: Imprisoned Baptist Preachers During the Colonial Period Between 1768-1778.

Abstract

Among the Baptist preachers imprisoned during the Colonial period of American history was an individual named John Waller. His story stands out because he comes on the scene as a juror in a trial of another Baptist preacher arrested on charges of preaching without a license, yet later on was himself in jail several times for the same charge. This paper tells his encouraging story in the long battle for religious liberty.
