R- Role- Anne Hutchinson A- Audience- Diary F- Format- Diary Entry T- Topic- Who were the Puritans and what did they do?

Dear Diary, Today I got a letter from Roger Williams. He is the Puritan minister who founded the Rhode Island colony. I told him that I, Anne Hutchinson, was going on trial because I spoke my mind. I said that you don’t need to go to church to pray to God. Roger said that you shouldn’t make people pray or do just one religion. You should be able to tolerate other religions. Tolerate means allowing people to have different beliefs from your own. “The Puritans were mean, mean, mean!” Roger said that to me in his letter to me.

Thanks for listening! Anne Hutchinson
