Montanus Hermann

Montanus Hermann received his education in the University of Leyden, and afterwards officiated as a Minister among the Remonstrants. On the 19^th of November, 1621, the congregation, to which he was preaching at Haarlem, was surprised, and put to flight ; and he made his escape with difficulty. He is mentioned by Brandt as one of the few Remonstrant clergy, who lived upon their own incomes, after they were ejected from their situations in the Church; and is extolled, by the same writer, for his constancy and perseverance. The only work which he published was one On the Vanity of Paedobaptism, of which the original, in Latin, was printed at Dortmund, in 1646, 4to., and a Dutch translation at Amsterdam, in 1647, 8vo., which came to a second edition in the year following.
