Hooker, Cotton and Davenport, to the Westminster Assembly of Divines. "The expression of the desires of those honorable and worthy personages, of both houses of Parliament, who call and wish the presence of Mr. Cotton, Mr. Hooker and Mr. Davenport, to come over with all possible speed, all or any of them, if all cannot. The condition wherein the state of things in this kingdom doth now stand we suppose you have from the relations of others; whereby you cannot but understand how great need there is of helps of prayer and improvement of all good manners from all parts, for the settling and composing the affairs of the Church. We therefore present unto you our earnest desires of you all. To shew wherein or how many ways you may be useful would easily be done by us and found by you, were you present with us. In all likelihood you will find opportunity enough to draw forth all that healthfulness that God shall afford by you. And we doubt not these advantages will be such, as will fully answer all inconveniences yourselves, churches or plantations may sustain, in this your voyage and short absence from them. Only the sooner you come the better. [Signed] Nath. Fiennes, Gilbert Gerrard, Oliver Cromwell, A. Haselrig, Miles Corbett, Warwick, Ph. Wharton, Mandeville, Robert Brooke, Wm.
