About this time , some that had run out from Truth, and clashed against Friends, were reached unto by the Power of the Lord; which came wonderfully over, and made them Condemn and Tear their Papers of Controversies to pieces. Several Meetings we had with them, and the Lord’s Everlasting Power was over all, and set Judgment on the Head of that, that had Run out. And in these Meetings, (which lasted whole Days) several, that had Run out with John Parrot and others , came in again , and Condemned that Spirit, that led them to Keep on their Hats, when Friends Prayed, and when they themselves Prayed: and some of them said, that Friends were more righteous than they; and that, If Friends had not stood, they had been gone, and had fallen into Perdition. And thus the Lord’s Power was wonderfully manifested, and came over all.
