Mr. Daniel Sadler, ha's this Testimony further fortified, by a Letter from One Mr Robert Loder, telling him, That he had met with an Old Copy of the Depositions aforesaid; which accordingly he transcribes for him▪ and several yet living in Dorchester affirmed unto him, the Truth of the Story. The Copies of these Letters are now in Boston in New-England. Mr. John Sadler, adds his Testimony, That his Father told unto his Mother, and himself, That he had been told of Remarkable Things to come to pass, particularly, the Burning of London, and Pauls. But that they were not ⟨p. 191⟩acquainted with all the matters, he foretold unto Mr. Bound, and Grey. Only he Remembers well, They Two were with him in his Chamber alone; and his Father went abroad within a day or two; and that, (according to the Sign he had given to them,) the Three Person• aforesaid visited him. He adds, That his Father spoke of leaving in Writing, the things that had been Shown to him; and that a little after, he saw once a Thin Octavo Manuscript in his Fathers Study, which he believed had those things in it: but after that, he could never find it. This Testimony, is Dated, in October. 1697.
