_Standfast's Cordial Comforts._--I have lately procured a copy of an
interesting book, entitled
"A Little Handful of Cordial Comforts: scattered throughout several
Answers to Sixteen Questions and Objections following. By Richard
Standfast, M.A., Rector of Christ Church in Bristol, and Chaplain in
Ordinary to King Charles II. Sixth Edition. Bristol, 1764. 18mo. pp.
94."
Can any of your readers give me further particulars of Mr. Standfast, or
tell me where to find them? In what year was the work first published? It
was reprinted in Bristol in 1764, "for Mr. Standfast Smith, apothecary,
great-grandson of the author." Has any later edition appeared?
