The out-letters include two (9 November 1688 and 16 February 1689) with interesting and enthusiastic references to the English Revolution and the arrival of William and Mary; but a letter dated 1 January 1689, quoted in part in Proceedings of the Huguenot Society (London: Huguenot Society of Great Britain and Ireland, vol.
