Mr . Clapham said they had no . right to serve lodgers with beer , any more than any other person , after ten o ' clock ; and , though there was not evidence enough to convict them for selling beer , they should , in order to les . en the penalty , go upon the charge of not opening the door for the watchmen ; and though for that offence they were liable to the penalty of £ 5 , they would mitigate it to 20 s . and costs .

      breast during the night , and still appeared to continue well . The mother had fallen asleep with the child lyin £ on her arm .

      and that it would never fail , nor could the force oi opposition ever prevent its final accomplishment as God would be ttue and every man a liarJ He gave a strong philippic against the doctrine of Arminian - ism , contending that if they were true , the word of God was false , and if the word of- God was true Arrnehianism was false .

      contained in the word of God , but only endeavoured to suite the taste and dispositions of their hearers that the Calvinists , Baptists , and others , did not declare the whole truth , but that they used the doctrine of election the same as putting a little sugar into their tea ; if you did not see them pat it in you would not know that it was there .

      trod upon the human heart would wear out " as sure as the soles upon his old shoes that he had upon bis feet / ' God never begun a work but he always carried it on , and that no man possessed any righteousness but through the imputed righteousness of Christ , as made over to him by the couricil of the Eternal Three in the scheme of man ' s redemption .
