Note

Anonymous. By William Assheton

In part a reply to "A conference about the next succession to the crowne of Ingland", attributed to R. Dolman. Doleman = William Allen, Sir Francis Englefield, and others. "Robert Persons [Parsons], who is often credited with sole authorship of the work, probably played only small part in its composition or revision"--Halkett & Laing (3rd ed.)

The folded leaf contains a table entitled "The parallel", with text in three columns, outlining the positions of "Doleman", John Bradshaw, and Algernon Sidney.
