I wish the narrow spirit of bigotry may give way amongst those of the establishment, to use that catechism with our own and with his divine songs. There is nothing of party or of the dijQference between the church and dissenters there, and nothing of the kind so well adapted for beginners in the school of Christian knowledge, the ideas and language are so easy, even to a child. Mr. Turner, in a postscript to this letter, suggests that as the Society had not adopted any catechism, it would be we...ll for them to take that of Dr. Watts with his divine songs ; I do not find that his hints were acted upon. Mr. Fox received a letter about the same time from a lawyer, Mr. J. Huntingford, a warm friend of the Society. The anecdote he tells of himself shows that the disciples of Blackstone were held in the same es- timation then that some of them are now. Whether justly or not, I do not pretend to say. His letter is dated Odiham, December 24, 1785. He says — Sir — Excuse me in recommending that a plan, &c.
