Dr. Owen
What if, as you suggest, the sober Dr. Owen, though he told me and others, at first, he would write an epistle to my book, (“Peaceable Principles and True,”) yet waved it afterwards; this was also to my advantage; because it was the earnest solicitations of several of you that at that time stopped his hand: and perhaps it was more for the glory of God that truth should, go naked into the world, than as seconded by so mighty an armor-bearer as he.
