A56313 A modest account from Pensylvania of the principal differences in point of doctrine, between George Keith, and those of the people called Quakers, from whom he separated : shewing his great declension, and inconsistency with himself therein : recommended to the serious consideration of those who are turned aside, aud [sic] joyned in his schism. Pusey, Caleb, 1650?-1727. 1696 (1696) Wing P4248; ESTC R40087 25,043 138
