[“Response by Father Peterson, Confessor to the King of England, responding to the June 10, 1688 letter from Father la Chaise, Confessor to the King of France. Regarding the details of the discovery and birth of the young Prince of Wales, as well as other political issüs. Printed…in the year 1688, the same year the betrayal was discovered.”] Ongoing correspondence between Father Peterson of England and Father de la Chaise of France, 1688.

[Newly discovered Jesuit attacks on the Protestants of England, in the two following recent letters between B. Petersen (Jesuit and Director of Alms to the King of Great Britain) and Father de la Chaife, Confessor to the Most Christian King of France. Wherein England's current circumstances and ongoing reformation, abolition of Test and Penal Laws and other strange things to be found within. Year 1688.] Most likely falsified letters between two Jesuits (de la Chaise and Edward Peter) planning a "popish plot" to eliminate the "heretic" Protestants from England. Peter was a close advisor to the Catholic James II (deposed King of England). Peter was a Catholic living in a Protestant English court under William & Mary and was highly unpopular. It was alleged that these men, among others, were plotting to overthrow King William and reestablish James II to the throne of England.
