The Heretical Synod at Salters-Hall.
[n.d., c.1719.]
Engraving. Sheet 185 x 115mm (7¼ x 4½"). Trimmed.
The interior of the meeting house adjoining the Salters' Hall in Walbrook, with Four Moderators. On the sheet once atttached it states in ink that this was by Hogarth and frontis to a pamphlet called "the Scourge". In 1719 the Salters' Hall debates split the dissenting community on the issue of whether ministers should be obliged to subscribe to the orthodox doctrine of the Trinity. The print is possibly the frontispiece to Thomas Lewis, ''The anatomy of the Heretical Synod of Dissenters at Salter's Hall ... collected from their late blasphemous writings ... by the author of the Scourge, in a letter to a country friend'', 1719.
