MEMOIR OF 
to Drummond, to sie his Lady, who, after a long 
languishing sickness, was then dying. I knew 
nothing of it, hot he told me afterwards, that the 
very next day after her arrival, he brought her 
over to the Romish persuasion. Good Lady, 
she, I believe, did it out of the love she had for 
him, and took it for granted that ther was no 
more in it then that she sould be saved only by 
the merits of her Saviour ; and I saw nothing bot 
this suirer perswasion the few dayes that she 
lived, except that she assented to them as of the 
true Catholick’s Church, and joined in their 
Worship and service. Bot all she said herself 
that I heard, was what any Protestant believed, 
and used in the agonie of death to say. So she 
died, and ceremonies were used at her death. 
“ The next day after I arrivedat Drummond, he 
had given me the Lyfe of Gregory Lopez, and 
of Father Davila to read. I read them with 
great admiration of ther piety and austerity ot 
lyfe ; and one day thereafter, as we were walking, 
he fell a speaking of religion, and of the Romish 
way. I told him I had a great charity for all 
good men of that persuasion, and I thought I 
had most aversion for their want of charity for 
those were out of their church. He told me, they 
believed that any good man of a different way 
from them, that had a sincere love to God, would 
be saved. I said I was well pleased to hear that.
