Dr Claver Morris et al. in Wells Cathedral Close Hall, Wells, Somerset, England - 6 September, 1709
from The Diary of a West Country Physician, A. D. 1684-1726, pages 55f:
Diary entry 6 September 1709
At the Musick-Meeting there happen’d to be Captain James Coward; And his asking how a Spirit could throw a Bed-Staff gave me an occasion to prove beyond his denying, & I hope to his satisfaction, that the World was not eternal and that there were future rewards & Punishments after Death.
