What were the highs and lows in Rhode Island in the 1600's

The New England Puritan communities were intolerant of
those who refused to conform to the rigid ideology of those in power. Over time there
were Puritans that were expelled from the Massachusetts colony. These expulsions led to
the founding of other colonies, in this case the colony of Rhode Island founded by Roger
Williams. One of the benefits of this colony was that the colony was founded upon more
tolerant principles among which welcomed the Jewish and Quakers. However, when
Massachusetts exile Anne Hutchinson was given refuge by the tolerant Roger Williams in
Rhode Island her beliefs proved intolerant even to the tolerant. The 'lows' you ask
about are definitely grounded in the limits of even the colonies that were founded upon
tolerance.
