Preachings1682-09-26 - 1682-11-26 (new) - British Isles - Occasion not identified; Date of preaching is identified as the “26th of the 9th month, 1682.” It is unclear whether these numbered months are Old or New Style, i.e. if the first month is March or January. To reflect both possibilities, the “Date Start” gives the 9th month according to the New Style (September), and the “Date End” gives the 9th month according to the Old Style (November). Sermon may have been preached in Ireland or in England.

Other NoteThe sermons in this manuscript have been attributed to John Kettlewell, unless otherwise marked. However, they are not in his hand and in some cases predate his ordination as deacon in 1677, casting doubt on this attribution.
