I was not aware of this man - but I do recall reading about this Benezet that you mention, a postdecessor of his, who said something like "when people speak of freedom, they mean their own and they seldom allow their thoughts to stray to that of other's"

I ran across these folks while writing a history lesson, and I felt that Lay needed a little more publicity.
