"Dr Goddard's note says: 'He published a large folio of his own Philosophy'. This was i n1712. In it he combated the Newtonian views. He maintained that there was no such thing as vacuum and that the circle could be squared; held strange views of gravity, and regarded the new system as tending to undermine revelation. It appears that he was thought by his contemporaries (not without some reason) to be mad". [Wardale, J.R., College Histories Clare College pp.150-151]
