some_o observation_n on_o thomas_n curtis_n with_o three_o query_n to_o t._n c._n and_o the_o other_o quaker_n in_o communion_n with_o he_o i._o thomas_n curtis_n be_v to_o be_v blame_v for_o what_o he_o act_v and_o do_v at_o kings-heath-meeting_a october_n the_o four_o 1696._o or_o he_o be_v not_o to_o be_v blame_v the_o print_a narrative_n give_v a_o account_n of_o the_o most_o material_a thing_n that_o pass_v in_o discourse_n ii_o if_o he_o be_v to_o blame_v for_o maintain_v such_o erroneous_a doctrine_n and_o also_o in_o public_a whether_o all_o those_o that_o be_v his_o friend_n or_o pretend_v so_o to_o be_v and_o take_v his_o part_n ought_v not_o to_o disow_v he_o till_o he_o have_v make_v a_o public_a confession_n and_o acknowledgement_n under_o his_o hand_n that_o what_o he_o there_o maintain_v and_o challenge_v five_o thousand_o to_o meet_v half_a way_n between_o his_o dwelling_n and_o i_o to_o maintain_v be_v damnable_a heresy_n otherwise_o to_o be_v deem_v equal_o guilty_a with_o t._n c._n and_o to_o hold_v such_o error_n as_o t._n c._n do_v or_o be_v connivers_n and_o cloaker_n of_o they_o iii_o it_o appear_v from_o his_o letter_n under_o his_o hand_n that_o he_o act_v contrary_a to_o it_o iv_o he_o never_o give_v a_o meeting_n to_o his_o last_o challenge_n october_n the_o four_o 1696._o though_o desire_v and_o urge_v to_o do_v it_o by_o two_o letter_n the_o second_o he_o never_o answer_v v._o he_o promise_v the_o people_n oftentimes_o he_o will_v never_o leave_v they_o as_o long_o as_o he_o be_v able_a to_o come_v and_o if_o not_o able_a to_o come_v be_v say_v he_o will_v send_v one_o and_o then_o at_o last_o come_v and_o tell_v they_o he_o will_v pay_v the_o rent_n no_o long_o then_o to_o michaelmas_n post_n contrary_a to_o what_o i_o hear_v he_o tell_v the_o landlord_n that_o when_o he_o be_v mind_v to_o leave_v it_o he_o shall_v have_v half_a a_o year_n warning_n or_o if_o he_o be_v mind_a t._n c._n shall_v hold_v it_o no_o long_o he_o shall_v give_v half_a a_o year_n warning_n and_o yet_o contrary_a to_o all_o he_o throw_v it_o up_o october_n the_o four_o 1696._o vi_o in_o that_o meeting_n the_o four_o of_o october_n he_o say_v none_o be_v against_o his_o doctrine_n but_o w._n c._n and_o then_o j._n r._n speak_v than_o he_o say_v none_o but_o he_o and_o i_o see_v what_o a_o shepherd_n this_o be_v to_o leave_v a_o flock_n as_o he_o say_v because_o two_o oppose_a his_o gross_a antichristian_a error_n vii_o he_o keep_v not_o to_o his_o former_a challenge_n nor_o to_o his_o latter_a nor_o to_o his_o letter_n and_o yet_o we_o do_v not_o find_v that_o either_o the_o reading-quakers_n belong_v to_o sun-lane_n nor_o some_o of_o the_o n●wberry-quakers_n have_v disow_v he_o but_o rather_o cloak_n and_o connive_v at_o it_o viii_o whether_o any_o hold_v such_o gross_a antichristian_a error_n and_o damnable_a heresy_n ought_v not_o as_o much_o to_o be_v disow_v as_o a_o man_n charge_v with_o adultery_n ix_o whether_o such_o of_o t._n c.'s_n communion_n that_o do_v not_o disow_v he_o be_v not_o equal_o guilty_a with_o himself_o and_o how_o can_v any_o christian_a people_n ever_o think_v they_o be_v sincere_a until_o they_o disow_v he_o for_o a_o preacher_n or_o that_o he_o make_v a_o public_a and_o sincere_a retract_n of_o those_o gross_a error_n t._n c._n public_o maintain_v at_o kings-heath_n meeting_n october_n the_o four_o x._o whether_o that_o be_v not_o a_o great_a cheat_n that_o t._n c.'s_n name_n shall_v be_v to_o a_o print_a sheet_n wherein_o many_o of_o those_o thing_n he_o maintain_v at_o
