- Abstract
The article analyzes the book "A Dialogue Betwixt a Secular Priest and a Lay Gentleman," published in 1601 by Catholic priest and scholar John Mush. It examines how Mush seems to confirm that Jesuits led by Father William Holt instructed Richard Hesketh to offer the English crown to Ferdinando Stanley, fifth earl of Derby, in 1593 in an effort to dethrone Queen Elizabeth I.
