(59) And soe after ye meetinge was donne I passed away to John
Audlands: and there came Jo: Story to mee: & lighted his pipe
of Tobacco: & saide hee sayde hee will ʌ you take a pipe of Tobacco
sayinge come sayde hee all is ours: & I lookt vpon him to
bee a forwarde bolde lad: & tobacco I did not s[mo]ke take
butt It came Into my minde y^t: ye Lad might think I had not
vnity with ye creation: for I saw hee had a flashy empty
notion of religion: soe I tooke his pipe & putt it to my mouth
& gaue it to him againe to stoppe him least his rude tongue
shoulde say I had not vnity with ye creation

And so, after the meeting was done, I passed away to John
Audland’s; and there came John Story to me: and lighted his pipe
of tobacco: and, said he, ‘Will you take a pipe of tobacco?’
saying, ‘Come, all is ours’ - and I looked upon him to
be a forward bold lad - and tobacco I did not take,
but it came into my mind that the lad might think I had not
unity with the creation; for I saw he had a flashy empty
notion of religion; so I took his pipe and put it to my mouth
and gave it to him again to stop him lest his rude tongue
should say I had not unity with the creation.

And from thence I came to preston ʌ Chappell: where there was
a great meetinge appointed & I went Into it & had a large
meetinge amongst ye people: & declared ye worde of life & ye
euerlastinge truth: to y^m & shewed ym y^t: ye ende of my comeinge
Into y^t. place was not to holde it vppe noe more then ye Apostles
cogoeinge Into ye Jewish synagoges & temples was: & Dianas but
to bringe y^m of all such thinges as they did: for ye Apostles
brought y^e saintes of ye true temple & true preist Arons preisthoode

          they                   tolde ym

& after ʌ mett in houses: & ʌ yt there bodyes was ye temples
of God & yt Xt was there teacher
And soe from thence I came to Kendall where a meetinge was
appointed in ye townde hall: & when I had declared ye truth &
worde of life to y^m: & shewed y.^m howe they might knowe Xt
& ye scriptures & what woulde bee there teacher & what
woulde bee there condemnation I passed away: after I had
staide awhile in ye townde: & seuerall was con vinced there
Soe one Cocks mett mee in ye streete & woulde haue giuen mee

                    for people was much giuen to smoakinge tobacco

a rowle of tabacco ʌ soe I accepted of his loue but denyed it

And from thence I came to Preston Patrick Chapel: where there was
a great meeting appointed, and I went into it and had a large
meeting amongst the people; and declared the word of life and the
everlasting truth to them, and showed them that the end of my coming
into that place was not to hold it up, no more than the Apostles
going into the Jewish synagogues and temples was - and Diana’s - but
to bring them off all such things, as they did - for the Apostles
brought the saints off the true temple and Aaron’s priesthood
and after, they met in houses - and told them that their bodies was
the temples of God and that Christ was their teacher.
And so from thence I came to Kendal where a meeting was
appointed in the Town Hall; and when I had declared the truth and
word of life to them and showed them how they might know Christ
and the scriptures and what would be their teacher and what
would be their condemnation, I passed away, after I had
stayed a while in the town; and several was convinced there;
so one Cocks met me in the street and would have given me
a roll of tobacco (for people was much given to smoking tobacco):
so I accepted of his love, but denied it.

And from thence I came to Underbarrow, to one Miles Bateman’s,
and as I came on the way several people came along with me
and great disputings I had with them, especially with Edward Burrough;
and at night the priest came, and a many professors, to Miles
Bateman’s,| and a great deal of disputing I had with them.
