Since my coming home I haue read over Mr. Lechfords booke,2 and find the scope thereof to be erroneous and dangerous, if not hereticall, according to my concepcion. His tenet being that the office of Apostleship doth still continew and ought soe to doe till Crists coming, and that a Church hath now power to make Apostles as our Saviour Crist had when hee was heere. other things there are, but I pray you consider of this and the inseparable consequences of it: I heare that Mr. Cotton and Mr. Rogers know something of the matter, or man, with whom you may if you please conferre: I heare 86also that hee favoureth Mr. Lentall3 and hath so exprest himselfe since Mr. Lentall was questyoned by the ministers: It is easyer stopping a breach when it begins, then afterwards. wee sawe our error in suffering Mrs. Huchinson too long: I haue sent you the booke herewith that instead of putting it to the presse as hee desireth it may rather be putt into the fire as I desire: But I pray you lett him know that I haue sent the booke to you, that after you haue read it (which I thinck you said you had not yet done) it may be restored to him: I received yesterday a lettre from my lovinge freind Mr. Burdett to excuse himself of the sclannder laid vpon him for baptiseing any, with some high straynes of other matter, which I haue answeared. This is all I haue at present, with due respect therefore I take leave resting Yours
