Death of Henry Care and Varied Attacks on Liberty of Conscience
A late 17th century broadside laments ongoing prosecutions of religious liberty while reporting the death of Henry Care. It defends Care’s writings against persecution, defames his detractors, and cites a major disaster on Thorneyes Street with Westminster fire-like ruin. The piece pleads unity and justice in support of toleration and government actions.
