ottbe on $ Go& the Father * . I-was dumb before my friend ; I only remarked he seemed to have studied well his subj ect—I would think of i t . I shortly after this left London , to enter on my ministerial career
as a Calvmist ; m five years , after I was compelled , from conviction , to ^~ avow ^ my sel-f-arUnitar ianr ^ - ^ Arbout-ayear after this , according to my best recollection , I went on a visit to London , accidentally met with my old friend , and learned there had been great disputes in the Mansell
society , or church ; that they were in a state of ^ anarchy and disorganization , on account of strict discipline and pecuniary matters ; and if my memory does not deceive me , — -this friend of mine had become the enemy ofMansei ! * and vhad written a pam * phlet against him . I know no more . I have often wished to know the fate of poor Manseil . I once talked
with the late Rev . W . Vidler respecting' him ; he said he had heard of him ; would institute inquiries , and insert the result in the periodical he conducted- —' The Universalist's Miscellany / afterwards the ¦* Universal Theological Magazine / the precursor of the ' Monthly . Repository , ' I think Manseli was a shoemaker . I understood the book cost , 50 / ,
printing , and he had to work hard at his last and lapstone to liquidate the debt . I am afraid the Unitarians of that day were of too gentlemanly a description- ' tonotice such ' a persbhas poor Mansell ; though a better spirit revived among ¦ them a few years afterwards , which I had ample experience of myself . I have often
thought that Manseus end was not glorious ; that either his Uriitarianism ended in-nothing , or- that he-went back to orthodoxy . I should like much to learn his history and fate . Yours , &c . John Platts , To J . C , of Hampstead .
