Yay! An accurate quote, just add
baptismal before formula and give the
recognised spelling.

Schmidt was clearly accepting the Conybeare position. Apparently an "independent critic" is one who bypasses the massive manuscript and ECW evidences.
Notice that the text proposed by Conybeare has no mention of baptism at all, and Conybeare had his own vector of transmission theory that competes with the Hebrew Matthew theory, based on the anti-missionary Shem-Tob of c. 1375 AD, for absurdity.
