Clergy and lay leaders from Secession and Independent churches joined Councillors and town council members as petitions circulated, with calls to redirect funds from establishment to national education or debt relief.

It includes anecdotes on a near-death girl, Seymour the stage manager, a Negro in England, and a critique of Voltaire's Louis XIV.
