Excerpt from Peter Whitney, and His History of Worcester County
Rev. Peter Whitney was born at Petersham, Massachusetts, September 6 (o. s.), 1744. He was a son of the Rev. Aaron Whitney, the first minister of the church in Petersham, and who was ordained there in December, 1738, and continued preaching in that place until his death. Of him the following account has been handed down:
"Against Rev. Mr. Whitney, who had continued, both in his preaching and his praying, to inculcate submission to the sovereign, the tide of popular indignation rose at length to a high pitch. The church was rent by dissensions, and public worship was neglected, til! at length, about the close of 1774, the town voted that 'they will not bargain with, hire nor employ the Rev. Mr. Whitney to preach for them any longer.' Mr. Whitney attempted to open negotiations for a reconciliation with the people, but they refused to compromise with him, discontinued his salary, and, finding that that would not cause him to desist from preaching, they chose a committee of ten on the 24th of the next May, 'to see that the publick worship on Lord's day next, and all future worship be not disturbed by any person or persons going into the desk, but such as shall be put in by the towns committee.'
