Original wording, with book contents, page navigation, and linked notes. Source heading; not independently verified
In the year 1529, those of Basel imprisoned nine of those who were baptized according to the command of Christ; six227 of whom, as they write, were banished.
They further write, that at Bomburg, a castle in the dominion of Basel, some of the chief Anabaptists were imprisoned by one Bartholomew Sincken who was castellan there. However, what they ultimately did with them, the record does not state. Compare this with the account in the preface to the Offer-boeck der Doopsgesinde, of the year 1615, letter Y, p. 2.
