          We have Considered the Reason given by you for Absenting from our Comunion in ye Special Ordinances of the Gospel, & as we believe your are Conscientious therein think it proper to Observe yt altho a Major Part of the Chh did Apprehend you to be under oath when you Said Thos GRAY was not in the Pew, yet Several of ye Chh did not think thus, neither do they at present. And as a Chh we are now ready to declare that when we heared what you had to Say relating to the affair we were, fully Satisfied of your Innocency of ye least Design of Saying, much less of Swearing what was false. And this we think was manifested by us in our willingness that you Should have Comunion with us altho' you Never made a Confession of any Scandal; & as a farther Evidence thereof this Message Shall be put on Record, hoping you will return to our Comunion, as we are & ever have been in full Charity with you.
