Salutem in Christo.
Sir,
I have receaved your Letter signd by your selfe and five of the Fellowes. And in itt a Forme of an Acknowledgement, which you say Mr Webberley refus’d to use. I thinke in my former Letters I requir’d his Acknowledgement should be Conceptis verbis. And that Forme which you have Conceavd is Just and Fayre. I believe hee stickes at these words [Malitious and Slaunderous Aspersions] but surely they were no lesse; And appeard manifestly so in Proofe. Hee [sic] wrong done unto you hee doth confesse, and did acknowledge before the Fellowes; And if you will rest satisfyed with that, I will also, in hope of his better Carriage for the future. But if you will hold him strictly to the Forme, which you tender’d, in regard of his Disobedience, I will do so alsoe; and suspend him from all Profitts of the House, till hee submitt. Thus farre I am very willing to goe for the upholdeing of Governement. But my Advice to you in private shall bee this: That if hee will give a fayre Promise for the future, you should admitt of the Acknowledgement allready made; And see how farre that Goodnesse of yours will worke uppon him. Soe to Gods blessed Protection I leave you and rest
your very Loveing Friend
W. Cant.
Lambeth August 2. 1639.
