Daille, Pierre, 1649-1715

Clergyman; born in France in 1649; banished because of his Huguenot faith in 1683, and removed to New York to work among the French under the Reformed Church. In 1688 the French erected their first church in Marketfield Street, between Broad and Whitehall streets; in 1692 Daille narrowly escaped imprisonment because he had denounced the violent measures of Jacob Leisler (q. v.); and in 1696 he became pastor of the School Street Church in Boston. He died in Boston, Mass., May 21, 1715.
