"As in the primitive Church, when either Persecution was threatened, or actually arose, it was a frequent Practice, among the Christians, to address to their Adversaries expository Epistles, to obviate the Calumnies and Aspersions cast both upon the Faith and Practice of their Church. I therefore presume in like manner, to address all whom it may concern."
