The rector of the Jesuits would not meet them, until Lockhart, the Governor of Dunkirk, who had been absent when the Friends arrived, had returned to that city. Lockhart spoke to the rector, and he then con- sented to see Edward and Samuel. He was subtle and crafty, and at first very high in spirit, apparently de- spising his opponents. But the truth in their mouths was too strong for him to contend against successfully; and after a discourse of three hours, he pretended that he had other busin...ess to attend to, and making his escape, re- fused to have any discourse with them afterwards. On the 20th, Edward addressed to the Jesuits, priests, and friars, a paper containing assertions to this effect : 1st. That the Romish church was not the true church of Christ. 2nd. That the constitution of the church, and the chief part of the forms of its worship and ordinances, were of man. 3rd. That there had been a general declension in the world, from true faith and doctrine, &c. 4th. That anti-christ had reigned for generations.
