summary:
  In coming years some of you will be thinking and saying about Mr. Putney with growing appreciation what some who are now in the thick of life are already saying in the words of Scripture Demetrius hath good report of all men and of the truth itself: yea, and we also bear record.

summary:
  In this service I have often ventured my life with joy, that the doctrine of the truth might be spread, and several times narrowly escaped. As three of us little fags had no lodging, we intended to go at night to the corn-market, and sleep upon the corn sacks.
