The Copy of a Letter written from New England, in Answer to a Letter which they had received from some Brethren in Old England, in the behalf of Mr Pinchin.
Reverend and Beloved Brethren in our Lord Jesus,
WE see by your Letters you have thought it meet to address your selves to us (the Elders of these Churches) in behalf of Mr Pinchin and his Book, to incline us to a favourable construction of the Tenets held forth in it as Disputable, and (and to some of note) probable; and for himself to move us to intercede with our Magistrates to deal favourably with him as a Gentleman pious and well deserving. In both which we shall give you a just account of our Proceedings.
