shewed it to some of the Clergy one of them took it and read it and said He did believe it might be a true Copy of F. Bugg's Petition Also the last Summer 1699. he was at Cambridge for more Money A Burser of a Colledge and some other Collegians told me That they had given him some more Money then to go home and set up his Trade He charges me with Eighteen Lyes more besides this which I shall return upon himself I may be mistaken in some small Circumstances but the Matter is true I do not yet find any mistake in that Lye 1. Is that I said He was but a poor Man when he first came amongst us and that he had not 30 l. a Year until after his Father's Death Reply What I writ I had partly out of his own Book and some from his own near Relations he writ but of 6 l. a Year and boasts much how he saved the Rent which I suppose was to set up his Trade when his Apprenticeship was out for he speaks of no more until after he came of Age which was about six Years after his Grandfathers Death and near four Years after he came amongst us This may be found in his Books see his Picture of Quakerism c. and his Pilgrim's Progress c. but he now says That his Grand father died in 1655. and left him 30 l. a Year of good House and Land in Milden-hall I have heard by one of his own Relations that knew the Estate as well as himself that it was not so much but after he came of Age he had an Augmentation added to the aforesaid 6 l. a Year if his Grand-fathers Will were searched into by some credible Persons I suppose there will not be found 30 l. a Year given him in the Year 1655. he had a good Estate when he began to Scribble against us but it was mostly purchased whilst he was amongst us and now hath brought himself to Beggery Lye 2. F. Bugg gave Bond to make his Wife a Joynture Reply He told me so himself and I was also so told by an honest Woman his near Relation that it was true he did make some writing to make his Wife a Joynture but he says He had but 20 l. in Money for his Wife's Portion I do not believe him because he told me many years ago That when he bought the great House at Mildenhall where his Son now dwells that his Wife's Father help'd him to buy it and made his Wife's Portion better than 100 l. which was as much as any of the younger Children had this he told me when he was accounted an honest Man although he denies it now Lye 3. F. Bugg says I say He sold his Estate to his Son To this he Replies That no Knight of the Post ever uttered a more manifest Lye And I may Reply Knights of the Post are Mercenary Agents and take Money for bearing false Witness and how far F. Bugg is guilty of that Offence let God and his own Conscience judge That he hath conveyed his Estate to his Son young Francis Bugg is no Lye His Son had 700 l. with his Wife by all relation and her Friends and Relations upon enquiry do affirm That it was settled upon the Marriage as firm as the Law can make it It were a bare-faced Cheat indeed to go about a begging to the Clergy for Money to pay his Debts and have an Estate to sell Lye 4. F. Bugg quotes my Book p. 26. That his Father Robert Bugg dwelt with him some Years after he was married c. This he says is a Lye upon a Lye four Stories high Reply Those were not the words in my Book see p. 26 27. where my words are these viz. That Robert Bugg Father to this Francis Bugg that writes now against us was a melancholly down-look'd Man by Relation and dwelt with his Son this Bugg some Years after F. Bugg was married and rose from Dinner and went out and was found drowned in a Water where he had no occasion to go to that place as F. Bugg and his Wife related it she to me and he to others yet living I heard my Brother Barnardistone speak of it many Years ago that F. Bugg's Father drowned himself as most People believed but the Coroners Jury did not find it Wilful Murder because there was some Grass found in one of his hands when he was taken out of the Water which they said was an Argument that he laid hold of to save himself such things are sudden Motions I believe that many have repented their so doing before the Breath departed their Bodies But F. Bugg says He was not so drowned the Record in the Crown Office will witness against him none of the King's Subjects that come to an untimely end but are recorded there This happened in or about the Month called January 1666. at Fridham in Cambridge-shire I writ not this to upbraid F. Bugg but to warn those that have incouraged him in scribling his Estate away to be bountiful to him in relieving his Necessities lest he should come to an untimely end through Dispair Lye 5. 6. F. Bugg mentions two Letters that I should write to him these Letters are both forged one of them proved so to be by a Certificate under an honest Man's hand see my Book p. 19 20 21. and in p. 31 32. And indeed there are things in them that I never writ said or thought Lye 7. F. Bugg was not the Author of his 20th Book c. Reply I do say I suppose that he was not the Author of the Book called his 20th Book see my Book p. 36. Lye 8. F. Bugg was seen at Oxford in the time when he writ his 20th Book c. Reply This is true and easie to be proved Lye 9. F. Bugg was sixteen Weeks from Home when he writ the aforesaid Book Reply This was reported by some of his own Family Lye 10. F. Bugg said in his last Book that Oxford exceeded Cambridge in their Bounty to him Reply This may be true I heard a very credible Clergy-man say that he had read the same thing in some of his Books as well as my self Lye 11. F. Bugg says I writ Verses of G. Fox Reply He knows this to be a Lye I have told him so divers times both of late Years and formerly yet he goes on and hath printed them so several times this is answered before see my Book p. 37 38. but he says I will not bestow much upon this crazy old piece which is now creeping into Unity with the Quakers c. Reply I have been not only in Unity but in Community with them above 36 Years even those F. Bugg call G. Fox's Party which are the most stedfast and real Quakers so called and am not so crazy as he reports me Although I am entred into the 76th Year of my Age yet through Mercy I can walk the Streets to visit the Sick
