Hubberthorn, Riciiaud, a celebrated Quaker of the 17th century, was at first a preacher in the Parlia- ment's army, but he afterwards joined the Quakers, and, in accordance with their principles of peace, quitted the army. After preaching some nine years, he was im- prisoned on account of his religious belief, and died from the effects at Newgate, June 17, 1062. Hubberthorn v.-as one of the Quakers liberated by king Charles upon his marriage with Catharine oi' Braganza, who ordered "the release of Quakers and otliers in jail in London and IMiddlesex for being ]irescnt at unlawful assemblies, who yet profess all obedience and allegiance, provided they are not indicted for refusing the oath of allegiance, nor have been ringleaders nor preachers at their assem- blies, hoping thereby to reduce them to a better con- formity." Just before this event, Hubberthorn, together with George Fox, had addressed the king and demand- ed the liberation of their suffering brethren. — Neal, Bis'. of the Puritans, ii, 418 ; Stoughton, Eccles.
