A35520	This is an answer to John Wiggans book, spread up and down in Lancashire, Cheshire and Wales, who is a baptist & a monarchy-man wherein may be seen how he exalts himself, against Christ the light, that doth enlighten every man : and also some of his, and his peoples erronious principles, and assertions, which he and his people held in a dispute, with some Quakers ... / from the prisoners at Lancaster, whom he then opposed being then a prisoner, Thomas Curwen, William Houlden, Henery Wood, William VVilson ; also here is an answer to his appendix annexed to the book by Margaret Fell.

the_o pure_a light_n of_o christ_n which_o be_v save_v which_o enlighten_v every_o man_n and_o for_o thy_o say_n there_o will_v be_v but_o little_a truth_n find_v in_o say_v thou_o teach_v thy_o way_n
