with respect to the within obligation, and find none unwilling to sign the same, except the Rev. John Houstons, who declines signing the said obligation, for the following reasons, viz: Firstlyz. Because he did not apprehend that the honourable Committee meant that Ministers should take up arms, as being inconsistent with their Ministerial charge. Secondly. Because he was already confined to the County of Hillsborough, therefore, he thinks he ought to be set at liberty, before he should sign the said obligation. Thirdly. Because there are three men belonging to his family; already inlisted in the Continental Army.
