370 | A man from Sandwich in the county of Kent, who has an encounter with an apparition (Anonymous 22) over several nights which tells him to go preach the gospel of all men. This is allegedly the same apparition that appeared to John Mowlin, as the apparition continually counsels Thomas Lipeat to speak with Mowlin. Over the course of several nights, the apparition appears to Thomas Lipeat as a ball of fire, the moon, a strange form, and a gentleman offering him money. However, through prayer, Thomas Lipeat is led to believe that these visions are in reality sent by the Devil and not by God. Eventually, Lipeat experiences a vision during which he is told by God that the Devil will offer him money, and he should refuse. When the apparition appears that night, and offers him money, Thomas Lipeat tells the apparition that all he needs is the grace of God, and the apparition leaves, never to return.(4 - 5)

344 | A man from Sandwich in the county of Kent, who is allegedly hit with a profound sadness during which he is visited by several visions and apparitions (Anonymous 22), which he believes are sent to him by God to do God's work. These continue for some five weeks, and appear to John Mowlin as a man in a coloured coat with "holes in [his] hands and feet," as well as through Voices. These same apparitions visit Thomas Lipeat, who suspects that they are not from God, but from the Devil.(1 - 3)
