Baxter-saints

[imchongjun]

Hello, teachers.
I have difficulty in understanding the following sentence:

she...speaks of dear Dick and dear Tom for all the world as if they had
been double Baxter-saints. (The Nebuly Coat)

What does "double Baxter-saints" mean? I found out that there was a person called Richard Baxter, 17th century English Puritan church leader, so does the sentence mean "she speaks of Dick and Tom as if they were saints like Richard Baxter"?

Richard Baxter wrote a book about saints. The speaker is probably indicating that other "she" feels that Dick and Tom are twice as saintly as anyone in the Baxter book.
