Excerpt from The Centennial Memorial of the Presbytery of Carlisle, Vol. 2 of 2: A Series of Papers, Historical and Biographical, Relating to the Origin and Growth of Presbyterianism in the Central and Eastern Part of Southern Pennsylvania Mr. Anderson, says Dr. Gillett in his history, was a man of talents, learning and piety, a graceful and popular preacher. He was, however, a man of stem orthodoxy, of firm and de cided opinions, and open and fearless in the expression of them. It is alleged that his strict orthodoxy and rigid Scottish habits as to Presbyterian faith, order and discipline, together with a disposition to dominate in all church affairs, were the occasion of offense to a portion of his people in New York.
