The third and last letter to a gentleman dissenting from the Church of England; wherein the design of the second (which was to refute the great and popular objections of dissenters against communion with the Church of England, and to reflect them back upon themselves) is farther pursued, and completed. To which is added, an appendix, containing some considerations on the lawfulness, expediency, and necessity of requiring all who are to be admitted to the ministry, or to any ecclesiastical preferment in the Church of England, or to be preachers or teachers in any dissenting congregation, to subscribe the articles of faith and religion; and setting forth the inconsistencies between the notorious practices of dissenters, and the avowed principles of many of them touching that matter. By John White, B. D. Sometime Fellow of St. John's College, Cambridge.

A letter to a gentleman dissenting from the Church of England; concerning the lives of churchmen and dissenters. Wherein the peculiar obligations which dissenters are supposed to lie under to holiness of life, and the special advantages they are pretended to enjoy above the members of the Church of England for promoting that end, are considered, divers great advantages which the members of the Church do really enjoy above them are pointed out, the lives of both fairly and impartially represented, the argument (or prejudice) arising from the better lives (real or supposed) of dissenters, in favour of their churches, is discussed, and what Dr. Watts has advanced upon those subjects in his book, entitled, An humble attempt towards the revival of practical religion among Christians, is largely examined. By John White, B. D. sometime Fellow of St. John's College, Cambridge.
