tive of CapnCaptain Wood’s Conversion,
from which I made out the proceed-

Keith, if he could inform me who
the Clergyman was, that he had con-
verted CapnCaptain Wood, to which he
answered, that he had Reason
to assure me, that Bishop Gor-
don was the Clergyman. —This

Speech, Vol: 1 pag: 111. Mr Gordon is
a Scotsman &and a non-jurant Bishop.
