Two Months, since he hath been told that it is against
the Law."

Hereupon this House Ordered, That it be referred
to Dr. Burges, Mr. Calamy, Mr. Obadiah Sedgwicke, Mr.
Caroll, and Mr. Chambers, to examine the said Thomas
Webb, concerning his Judgement, and Opinion of the
whole Charge; especially concerning the Articles touching his believing in Christ, and touching the Immortality of the Soul; and that they endeavour to settle
his Judgement from the Errors of his Opinions, and
reduce to the Orthodox Opinion; and that they make
their Certificate of the same to this House.
And it is further Ordered, That the said Webb shall
remain in safe Custody he now is under, until he put in
