@QuakerOats1650 Not very characteristic of a Quaker to have instigated a quarrel in the first place. #youdoyou #ndwhcol

[Roger Williams @theOGWilliams]

@IndiLivesMatter or like I did between the Narragansett tribe and the people of Rhode Island. #ndwhcol

[Roger Williams @theOGWilliams]

Shoutout to @4nn3_Hutchinson for coming with all of her followers to Rhode Island #buildingupthenewcolony #ndwhcol

[Roger Williams @theOGWilliams]

Thank God I lived to see the day that Providence was rebuilt. I couldn't live knowing my last view of it was when it was in ashes #ndwhcol

[Roger Williams @theOGWilliams]

First Freeborn now my wife Mary... how much worse can my life get... #lost #destroyed #Imissthem #ndwhcol

[Roger Williams @theOGWilliams]

I can't believe Freeborn is gone... It was just like yesterday that she was born in Salem... I can't believe this... #devastated #ndwhcol

[Roger Williams @theOGWilliams]

My final child born was born today. Everyone welcome Joseph into the world #ihavethebestkids #lukcytobealivewithsix #ndwhcol

[Roger Williams @theOGWilliams]

@IndiLivesMatter Maybe him and my sons would be able to hang out sometime! #ndwhcol

So blessed that all six of my kids were born in America #americanbabies #newworldkids #ndwhcol

[Roger Williams @theOGWilliams]

@MightyLordCecil Many thanks.

[Roger Williams @theOGWilliams]

@MightyLordCecil had my people listened to me it may have been possible to avoid the King Philip's War. #ndwhcol

[Roger Williams @theOGWilliams]

@ND_JohnCalvin Well you are able to preach in Providence the same way you have in Geneva. #ReligiousLiberty #ndwhcol

[Roger Williams @theOGWilliams]

@MightyLordCecil it's that easy if you cooperate with the Natives. #simplebusiness #cometogether #ndwhcol

[Roger Williams @theOGWilliams]

@metacomet2moon The book is meant for the English to understand the language of the Natives, so you may find trouble understanding #ndwhcol

[Roger Williams @theOGWilliams]

@metacomet2moon The book contains mostly Narragansett, an Algonquian language. #ndwhcol

[Puritanz @PurifierzNE]

@theOGWilliams is so headstrong, able to withstand England's treatment and now getting the charter for your government #Liberty #ndwhcol

[Roger Williams @theOGWilliams]

@indenturedWill Maybe you can pick up a copy of my new dictionary and communicate with them, maybe your views will change... #ndwhcol

[Roger Williams @theOGWilliams]

@IndiLivesMatter @BerkeleySir I was able to maintain peace with the Natives for a long time until the outbreak of King Philip's War #ndwhcol

[Roger Williams @theOGWilliams]

@metacomet2moon @OG_J_Winthrop Let us not forgot who tried to maintain peace between the colonists and the natives... #ndwhcol
