In it the writer complained, and found it very ill, that under his very eyes he, a priest with charge of souls, permitted the English clergyman, a layman and a heretic, to baptize publicly in his congregation [133] the children of Catholic mothers. Having read this writing, the defendant grew very angry, and said that the clergyman was as good a priest as himself. This he repeated three or four times. At this a certain person present was extremely scandalized at hearing such comparisons instituted. It was judged by this and other talks he had with the defendant that the latter is not a Catholic, and from that time forth he had no good opinion of him.
