Event-Misc 1650 Completed a theological treatise "The Metritorious Price of our Redemption, Justification, & Co.", Springfield, Hampden, MA, This book argued a point of Puritan doctrine that was opposed tothe usual teachings of the ministers and leaders of the Bay Colony in Boston. It was published in London by James Maxon and when it arrived in New England in the fall of 1650 it ignited a firestorm (and was burned in the public square in Boston in 1651)2 
Event-Misc May 1651 Boston, Suffolk, MA, William Pynchon appeared before the MA General Court to answer charges that his book was heretical. Pynchon retracted some, but not all, of his statements. Because of his stature in the community he was not then condemned, but was sent back to Springfield in a 'hopefull way' to reconsider his views (this same session of the General court condemed Mary Parsons of Springfield to death for Witchcraft ... so this was a good outcome for Pynchon). The case was continued until Oct. of 1651. One of the clegrymen who examinded WIlliam Pynchon, the Rev. John Norton of Ipswich, was paid the munificent sum of 20 Lbs. to write a tract answering Pynchon's arguments, titled (in the style of the day), "A Discussion of that Great Point in Divinity, the Suffering of Christ; and the Questions about his Righteousnesse ...
