Gentlemen Petition for Relief Angers Clergy Debate
Postscript urges caution on a proposed Episcopal prayer for relaxation of subscription to the Thirty nine Articles. The author argues such petition risks ecclesiastical strife, urges submission to bishops, and condemns private dissent as imprudent amid state turmoil and public unrest. It calls for spiritual fathers to advise and for reform of conduct over liturgical changes.
