Petition for relief from Church of England subscription
A London meeting of clergy graduates and lay supporters outlines a plan to petition Parliament for relief from subscription to the 39 articles and to the Liturg y. The group forms a committee to draft the petition and sets a second general meeting for September 25 and a third for December 11 at Feathers Tavern Strand. They argue subscriptions curb religious liberty and hinder Gospel progress and urge Parliament to address grievances with parliamentary redress.
