And What if the Pretender should Come? / Or Some Considerations of the Advantages and Real Consequences of the Pretender's Possessing the Crown of Great Britain

The pamphlet assesses the contested succession of a claimant to the crown, presenting arguments advanced by both supporters and opponents about legitimacy, potential benefits, and risks of his accession. It analyzes claims of hereditary right and challenges about the circumstances of birth, critiques partisan exaggeration on either side, and weighs likely political, religious, and economic consequences—addressing fears of foreign influence, loss of liberties, and financial disruption. The author calls for calm, impartial evaluation of evidence, urging readers to balance the promised advantages against realistic limits and to decide for themselves how best to prepare for possible change in government.
