An amusing extract from an anonymous printed sheet of 1681, titled 'A Hue and Cry after Dr T. O.', describing the delightful #TitusOates, the originator of the #PopishPlot. It could almost be describing one of the spectators!😃

Today is the #Feast of St Claude La Colombiere SJ. Unfortunate enough to be in England when #TitusOates' #PopishPlot blew up, he was imprisoned and died soon after his release.
We have #relics and other material about him in our #archive.

A 1681 satirical broadside on the #PopishPlot, with an engraving on two levels (thread). At the top, the apotheosis of the witnesses to the Plot (Titus Oates, Miles Prance, Stephen Dugdale & William Bedloe) sitting on clouds, crowned with laurel wreaths by two cherubim. 1/5

At a cancelled #Restoration360 last year I was to interview @quintonjournals & @saralread on #fiction set in the Restoration.
And I'm so glad Sara's talk includes the topic! Sounds like a must for #histfic writers; I'm going to learn plenty.

Matthew Turner: London Catholic bookseller, 1663-1693 (& my personal obsession).
Questioned by #TitusOates during the #PopishPlot, who complained that Turner and his brother had been 'too nimble for the searchers'
Turner if he ever met me:
New things learned
#OTD 1689, Burlington used the term Hollantide (which is usually referenced as a Celtic holiday signifying Halloween) as when he would pay Sr Edmd Godfrey, which is presumably him who is caught up in the #PopishPlot
Also didn't know Protestants did Ash Wed
