Epistle to William Penn is signed "Thomas Thompson" (Part 1, p. 26), which, according to Halkett & Laing (2d edn.), is a pseudonym for Henry Hedworth. Cf. George Whitehead, "The timorous reviler sleighted" (Wing W1965), whose title page says that the author of the second par of the "Quakers quibbles" is "(by some) suspected to be the author of the two pamphlets, the one entituled, The spirit of the Quakers tryd; the other, Controversie ended." Both of these pamphlets are by Henry Hedworth.

Errata: p. [10] before pt. 2, p. [1] at end.

The second part was also published in the same year, and all three parts were issued together with a cancel title page (Wing T1013).
