John Gale

John Gale (1680-1722), an Arian, ministered to the Baptist congregation in the Barbican, London, along with the Socinian James Foster (1697-1753). John C. Carlile believed   the  congregation   at  the  Barbican   to  be  ‘the  most  influential congregation in the City’, mentioning Mordecai Abbot, a London Baptist who occupied several important  government  offices, including Receiver-General  of the Customs  under William III. See John C. Carlile, The Story of the English Baptists (London: James Clarke & Co, 1905), 155, 158.
