The story

A bronze and granite plaque on a plinth at Bowling Green honors Francis Makemie, a native of Ireland regarded as a father of American Presbyterianism. The inscription recounts his 1707 challenge to a colonial governor's order barring him from preaching, and his acquittal, which marked an early victory for religious liberty.
