A Story of Old Holland Doctor Adrian was a scholar living in quiet seclusion in Antwerp, the Netherlands, until a fugitive Protestant preacher and his daughter Rose sought sanctuary in his rooms. Before he knew it, he became involved with the Protestant cause, and eventually embraced it in theory. When the persecution of the Reformed was stepped up, Doctor Adrian made the dangerous journey to Leyden with his family. They survived the siege of Leyden, along with Adrian’s sister Marie. When the siege was lifted by the fleets of William of Orange, they moved to Utrecht. Doctor Adrian’s faith in the Reformed religion died when he experienced the loss of some of his loved ones, but a new faith in the Author of that religion took its place. This is a tale of a doctor and his contact with William, Prince of Orange, and of his spiritual journey.
