Hall, See also:Cambridge, where his opposition to the Arminian party, then powerful in that society, excluded him from a fellowship. See also:Nicholas See also:Felton, See also:bishop of See also:Ely, however, made him his See also:chaplain, and gave him the living of St See also:Mary, See also:Swaffham See also:Prior, which he held till 1626. He then removed to See also:Bury St See also:Edmunds, where he acted as lecturer for ten years, retiring when his bishop (See also:Wren) insisted on the observance of certain ceremonial articles. In 1636 he was appointed See also:rector (or perhaps only lecturer) of See also:Rochford in See also:Essex, which was so unhealthy that he had soon to leave it, and in 1639 he was elected to the perpetual curacy of St Mary Aldermanbury in London, where he had a large following. Upon the opening of the See also:Long See also:Parliament he distinguished himself in See also:defence of the Presbyterian cause, and had a See also:principal See also:share in See also:writing the conciliatory See also:work known as Smectymnuus, against Bishop See also:Joseph Hall's presentation of See also:episcopacy. The See also:initials of the names of the several contributors formed the name under which it was published, viz., S. See also:Marshal, E. Calamy, T. See also:Young, M. See also:Newcomen and W.

He was ejected for See also:Nonconformity in 1662, and was so affected by the sight of the devastation caused by the See also:great See also:fire of London that he died shortly afterwards, on the 29th of October 1666. He was buried in the ruins of his church, near the See also:place where the See also:pulpit had stood. His publications are almost entirely sermons. His eldest son (Edmund), known as " the younger," was educated at Cambridge, and was ejected from the rectory of Moreton, Essex, in 1662. He was of a retiring disposition and moderate views, and died in 1685.
