Willem Willemsz, a tailor of Utrecht, Netherlands, a member of the Utrecht congregation, was ar­rested there in 1562. He declared that he had not attended the Catholic Church since 1559, in which year he had bought a New Testament. Since 1560 he had attended Mennonite meetings, and was baptized in early 1561 by Elder Joost Verbeeck of Antwerp. Besides a New Testament he also possessed a copy of the first Dutch martyr book, Offer des Heeren (first ed. 1562). After being tortured two or three times Willem recanted and was ban­ished from the town on 12 May 1562, and sentenced to the galleys.
