CAMERONIAN
Cam`e*ro"ni*an, n.
Definition: A follower of the Rev. Richard Cameron, a Scotch Covenanter of
the time of Charies II.
Cameron and others refused to accept the "indulgence" offered the
Presbyterian clergy, insisted on the Solemn league and Covenant, and
in 1680 declared Charles II deposed for tyranny, breach of faith,
etc. Cameron was killed at the battle of Airdmoss, but his followers
became a denomination (afterwards called Reformed Presbyterians) who
refused to recognize laws or institutions which they believed
contrary to the kingdom of Christ, but who now avail themselves of
political rights.
