Note 238 — Chapter LII · LONDONDERRY AND ENNISKILLEN, 1689
Reading edition
Naming Walker, Mackenzie, and other preachers, the author of the Londeriad says:—
From sun rising to sun setting they taught, While we against the en’my bravely fought. Thus Heaven assists those actions which proceed From Unity in greatest time of need.
In my copy of Mackenzie’s Narrative of the Siege (March 31, 1690) is written in a contemporary hand: ‘A partial account against Kirk, Walker, &c., on behalf of the fanatick party.’ The controversy is handled by Macaulay, chap. xv., with the titles of the pamphlets in a note. It is fully but not impartially treated in chap. viii. of Witherow’s Derry and Enniskillen, 3rd edition, Belfast, 1885. Burnet, ii. 19, and the Supplement, ed. Foxcroft, 321.
