Here is a Figure pray mark it very well Another I can make I do you tell But this may serve to be a Looking-Glass To shew you plainly how Things come to pass But if you say We never did profess The Scripture for our Rule in any Case But Judgment we 'l give out as we see cause Not minding Justice Equity or Laws Then I do say another there needs not To manifest the same since 't is my lot Which for to do I here declare and tell The Scripture I must take to do it well Because it is however in my esteem The truest standing Record I have seen Condemning Errour in the Judgment Seat But Truth and Justice it maintains compleat This was wrote and sent in a Paper I called Speeches and Passages among other things to W. P. against the Yearly-Meeting which was held the 20th of the 3d. Month 1678 and to the Meeting I went my self and told W. P. that I had long sued for a Hearing by Persons indifferently elected but could never as yet obtain it and having used all Gospel ways and means for Justice amongst our selves which hath proved ineffectual I am now minded to appeal from your Judgment Seats to the Episcopalians So after W. P. heard that he bad me leave it to him and he would take it upon him to procure me an indifferent Election So I did and home I came and soon afrer this S. C. was humbled and tho he had said he would go no farther than our Quarterly-Meeting yet now he sent me word by J. M. that I should have such a Meeting as I desired Alas his Superiors had commanded it and he was constrained to obey least Deprivation should follow the Sin of Disobedience c. So we met at Ely and became bound to each other in a Bond of thirty pound to stand to the Award of our chozen Men whose Names are as followeth c. F. Bugg's Men. Thomas Berrier Senior Robert Turner William Bellsham John Parnel Edward Neele Thomas Bird S. Cater's Men. Gyles Bernadistan Thomas Sowtor Steven Williby Thomas Wright Robert Letchworth William Wright Now before I go any further I may shew the Opinion of two Learned Men in defence of my Opinion of appealing to the Episcopalians for Justice when not attainable amongst our selves The 1st is R. R. in a Letter to T. C. where he thteatens him That if he cannot prove his Charge against R. T. c. that he had wherewith to make satisfaction for the Defamation which it may be they will require of thee so that thou mayst seem to consult thy own Safety The Church saith R. R. will require no such Satisfaction from thee but they cannot restrain men in their Civil Concerns from seeking Justice in a legal way c. By which it is apparent that this R. R. G. W's Learned Friend and the Second-days Meetings Clark his Opinion is 1. That T. C. had need to consult his Interest unless he could prove his Charge of Defamation altho no Defamation but what T. C. asserted is generally known by the Second-days Meeting 2. That though the Church will seek no such satisfaction yet she cannot restrain men in their Civil Concerns So that in their Civil Concerns and in the defence of their Reputation they may take a Legal Course against Defamations and other Injuries acted by injurious Persons And truly altho I differ from this R. R. in several things about Womens-Meetings and their Jurisdictions and other things relating to Church-Government yet in this he is of my Opinion for after I had sued for a Hearing by Persons indifferently elected and used all Gospel Order among our selves to obtain the same and all proved ineffectual then and not while then did I offer to appeal from our selves to the Legal Judgment-Seat for Satisfaction not only for Defamation and many Slanders cast upon me both as a Man and Christian by S. C. which he had cast upon me several times but also in a Case of Property about Meum and Tuum this was then my Opinion and it remains so still S. C. being as little related to me in Church Society as T. C. can be to R. R. only the Reader may observe upon what small occasion this R. R. threatens a Legal Course to be taken Viz. for signifying what manner of Persons they own in their Society being conformable as M. and S. B. T. M. J. S. W.
