For the next twenty years he was called to account, almost every year, and fined for the absence of himself and his wife from the public ordinances. He was also fined, in 1666, for entering the meeting-house with his hat on his head; in 1670, for saying I dare as well come to an Image among the heathen as to your worship; in 1673 for slandering and reviling the Court, and for servile labor on the Lord's Day; and in 1676, for profane and wicked cursing.— County Court Records and Files.
