Of which, men may learne infallible faith, necessarie to saluation. By A.C.	A.

out_o of_o question_n that_o such_o a_o visible_a church_n as_o the_o question_n mention_v must_v needs_o be_v grant_v whereupon_o m._n fisher_n take_v his_o pen_n and_o subscribe_v to_o the_o first_o

brief_o what_o answer_v he_o mean_v to_o make_v to_o the_o whole_a question_n and_o say_v i_o will_v answer_v that_o it_o be_v not_o to_o wit_n so_o visible_a as_o the_o question_v require_v this_o paper_n in_o which_o these_o question_n be_v sir_n humphrey_n take_v but_o with_o intent_n that_o only_o one_o that_o be_v the_o second_o shall_v be_v dispute_v on_o then_o question_n be_v make_v about_o the_o place_n sir_n humphrey_n name_v d._n whites_n house_n m._n fisher_n say_v he_o have_v no_o reason_n to_o go_v to_o the_o doctor_n house_n in_o regard_n the_o last_o time_n he_o be_v

the_o place_n m._n fisher_n very_o think_v that_o no_o meeting_n will_v be_v at_o all_o yet_o he_o do_v not_o take_v again_o the_o paper_n in_o which_o the_o question_n be_v but_o either_o leave_v they_o with_o sir_n humphrey_n or_o the_o old_a gentleman_n yet_o without_o any_o mind_n at_o all_o to_o make_v any_o challenge_n as_o he_o have_v more_o than_o once_o express_v about_o two_o day_n after_o say_v the_o protestant_a relator_n m._n bug_n repair_v to_o sir_n humphrey_n lynd_n and_o entreat_v he_o for_o his_o satisfaction_n to_o give_v m._n fisher_n a_o meeting_n say_v that_o m._n fisher_n have_v again_o tell_v he_o that_o he_o will_v maintain_v what_o he_o have_v set_v down_o and_o that_o our_o divine_n can_v not_o prove_v our_o church_n visible_a before_o luther_n time_n whereupon_o sir_n humphrey_n tell_v he_o that_o d._n white_a and_o d._n feat_o be_v to_o dine_v with_o he_o on_o friday_n follow_v and_o if_o after_o dinner_n m._n fisher_n will_v come_v thither_o with_o four_o or_o six_o at_o the_o most_o they_o shall_v be_v admit_v for_o his_o sake_n and_o his_o wife_n who_o by_o reason_n of_o such_o solicitation_n be_v trouble_v in_o their_o mind_n and_o

private_a betwixt_o sir_n humphrey_n and_o the_o old_a gentleman_n but_o there_o be_v other_o more_o remarkable_a passage_n omit_v by_o the_o protestant_a relator_n which_o i_o think_v fit_a to_o set_v down_o as_o first_o that_o m._n fisher_n come_v to_o the_o old_a gentleman_n the_o next_o day_n or_o next_o but_o one_o after_o the_o question_n be_v set_v down_o find_v he_o still_o desirous_a
