Excerpt from Records of the English Catholics of 1715: Compiled Wholly From Original Documents In passing, however, attention might be called to the wills of two apostates - Francis Poole and Dr. John Purcell. Of the latter, it is worthy of notice, that no less than eight members of his family occur in Cosin's List, so that the fact of his own name thus conspicuous by its dosenee from it affords an indirect proof of the Catholicity of the whole. This, however, touches a question on which we shall have more to say presently. A few early Catholic Mission Registers, and other original documents in private hands, such as the Derby ms., the will of Dorothy Thorold, &c., have kindly been placed at my disposal and my thanks are due to Others also, who have generously helped me with information not otherwise accessible.
