A small British 1700 publication (pamphlet) advocating that the protestant churches NOT adopt the Gregorian calendar and that the roman-catholic church return to the Julian Calendar. Takes issue with the recent adaptation of the 'new' calender in such protestant areas as Denmark, the Netherlands and parts of Switzerland. Warns Britain not to go that way. [Quoted on Robert Pool: Time Alteration, 1998] iv & 26 p.
