that_o i_o can_v ever_o meet_v withal_o until_o the_o parliament_n have_v order_v sir_n john_n stawell_n to_o be_v try_v by_o a_o high_a court_n of_o justice_n and_o have_v require_v i_o to_o attend_v the_o say_a court_n as_o a_o witness_n against_o he_o and_o i_o do_v believe_v that_o sir_n john_n stawell_n do_v frame_v and_o contrive_v those_o false_a and_o scandalous_a fiction_n after_o the_o death_n of_o the_o late_a king_n hope_v thereby_o to_o save_v his_o reputation_n and_o to_o excuse_v his_o wilful_a perverseness_n thereby_o endeavour_v to_o make_v the_o world_n believe_v that_o it_o be_v not_o his_o own_o madness_n and_o folly_n that_o have_v bring_v he_o to_o ruin_v but_o the_o treachery_n of_o a_o friend_n upon_o who_o he_o rely_v and_o this_o be_v one_o reason_n as_o i_o very_o believe_v that_o those_o fiction_n be_v print_v and_o publish_v 6._o and_o last_o that_o in_o case_n i_o shall_v at_o any_o time_n hinder_v sir_n john_n stawel_n composition_n nay_o if_o i_o

sir_n edward_n moseley_n to_o be_v pay_v unto_o i_o for_o the_o discharge_n of_o several_a disbursment_n and_o engagement_n which_o i_o have_v pay_v and_o enter_v into_o together_o with_o col._n alexander_n popham_n col._n nathaniel_n fines_n col._n hollis_n and_o other_o gentleman_n of_o the_o county_n of_o somerset_n for_o the_o service_n of_o the_o parliament_n and_o pay_v of_o their_o

but_o sir_n john_n stawell_n not_o compound_v those_o debt_n disbursment_n and_o engagement_n be_v not_o all_o satisfy_v and_o pay_v nor_o have_v i_o receive_v any_o satisfaction_n towards_o my_o

those_o obligation_n still_o in_o force_n and_o i_o in_o particular_a do_v lose_v at_o least_o five_o thousand_o pound_n for_o that_o sir_n john_n stawell_n do_v not_o make_v his_o composition_n for_o that_o his_o composition_n amount_v unto_o seven_o or_o eight_o thousand_o pound_n or_o thereabouts_o these_o and_o many_o other_o particular_n be_v set_v forth_o plain_o manifest_v and_o clear_o prove_v in_o the_o treatise_n which_o i_o do_v then_o write_v as_o be_v above_o mention_v but_o in_o regard_n the_o book_n prove_v to_o be_v of_o so_o large_a a_o volume_n that_o it_o will_v require_v

and_o only_o print_v something_o for_o the_o present_a in_o answer_n to_o what_o be_v contain_v in_o the_o page_n 28_o and_o 30_o of_o sir_n john_n stawel_n pamphlet_n entitle_v his_o humble_a

presume_v that_o the_o ensue_a discourse_n will_v clear_o prove_v the_o same_o that_o if_o his_o act_n in_o somersetshire_n and_o his_o deal_n with_o the_o people_n of_o taunton_n be_v as_o true_o declare_v and_o relate_v as_o those_o passage_n set_v down_o in_o page_n 23._o 24._o 28._o &_o 30._o concern_v his_o discourse_n &_o proceed_v with_o myself_o that_o then_o there_o be_v not_o scarce_o one_o line_n of_o truth_n in_o the_o whole_a narrative_a for_o i_o do_v say_v and_o affirm_v that_o the_o whole_a relation_n contain_v in_o page_n 23._o 24._o 28._o and_o 30._o be_v a_o false_a and_o

be_o resolve_v at_o this_o time_n to_o give_v a_o answer_n only_o to_o those_o and_o the_o rather_o because_o the_o passage_n contain_v in_o page_n 23._o and_o 24._o relate_v to_o sir_n john_n stawell_n appearance_n at_o goldsmith_n hall_n his_o miscarriage_n there_o and_o the_o report_n thereof_o make_v to_o the_o parliament_n will_v be_v examine_v and_o at_o large_a declare_v before_o the_o committee_n now_o appoint_v to_o examine_v the_o same_o reader_n if_o thou_o shall_v serious_o peruse_v what_o be_v set_v forth_o by_o sir_n john_n stawell_n in_o page_n 28._o thou_o may_v easy_o perceive_v that_o his_o design_n be_v to_o insinuate_v these_o particular_n first_o that_o sir_n john_n stawell_n be_v put_v into_o a_o little_a dark_a corner_n where_o he_o be_v keep_v from_o nine_o of_o the_o clock_n in_o the_o morning_n till_o three_o in_o the_o afternoon_n and_o no_o man_n suffer_v to_o come_v to_o he_o but_o mr._n ashe_n and_o that_o then_o mr._n ashe_n resort_v to_o he_o four_o or_o five_o time_n during_o his_o abode_n in_o that_o little_a dark_a corner_n second_o that_o whilst_o sir_n john_n stawell_n be_v in_o the_o say_v dark_a corner_n mr._n ashe_n do_v treat_v with_o he_o about_o the_o purchase_n of_o his_o farm_n at_o abery_n and_o do_v offer_v to_o give_v four_o thousand_o pound_n for_o the_o same_o three_o that_o some_o few_o day_n before_o sir_n john_n stawell_n be_v put_v into_o the_o say_a dark_a corner_n mr._n ashe_n have_v discourse_n with_o he_o about_o the_o sale_n of_o his_o fee-simple_n land_n to_o pay_v his_o composition_n four_o that_o mr._n ashe_n have_v discover_v his_o desire_n to_o buy_v the_o farm_n of_o abery_n he_o be_v sharp_o reprove_v for_o the_o same_o by_o sir_n john_n stawell_n these_o four_o particular_n be_v

the_o proof_n of_o it_o i_o have_v more_o than_o one_o hundred_o witness_n sir_n john_n stawell_n be_v bring_v before_o the_o high_a court_n of_o justice_n in_o westminster_n hall_n and_o i_o be_v then_o present_a as_o a_o witness_n by_o order_n of_o parliament_n mr._n attorney_n general_n be_v please_v to_o acquaint_v the_o court_n that_o sir_n john_n stawell_n at_o his_o first_o appearance_n there_o when_o mr._n ashe_n be_v absent_a have_v cast_v out_o some_o word_n of_o reflection_n against_o he_o and_o have_v likewise_o fill_v the_o town_n with_o report_n of_o the_o great_a matter_n he_o have_v to_o charge_v mr._n ashe_n with_o all_o if_o ever_o he_o appear_v in_o that_o court_n whereupon_o the_o say_a attorney_n general_n do_v pray_v the_o court_n that_o since_o mr._n ashe_n be_v there_o present_a sir_n john_n stawell_n may_v open_o declare_v what_o he_o have_v to_o charge_v mr._n ashe_n withal_o which_o motion_n the_o court_n approve_v of_o and_o thereupon_o will_v sir_n john_n stawell_n to_o speak_v what_o he_o have_v to_o say_v sir_n john_n stawell_n willing_o condesended_a to_o what_o the_o court_n have_v approve_v of_o upon_o mr._n attorney_n motion_n and_o then_o relate_v several_a headless_a story_n fiction_n of_o his_o own_o brain_n and_o when_o he_o have_v say_v all_o mr._n attorney_n tell_v the_o court_n that_o he_o do_v believe_v sir_n john_n stawell_n have_v much_o more_o to_o say_v for_o that_o which_o he_o have_v then_o speak_v do_v not_o any_o way_n reflect_v upon_o mr._n ashe_n nor_o answer_v the_o report_v he_o have_v spread_v about_o the_o

have_v speak_v all_o then_o the_o lord_n precedent_n of_o that_o court_n speak_v unto_o sir_n john_n stawell_n to_o this_o effect_n sir_n the_o court_n

that_o come_v there_o under_o a_o pretence_n of_o a_o compounder_n that_o the_o committee_n of_o goldsmith_n hall_n have_v deliver_v the_o say_a sir_n john_n stawell_n to_o the_o custody_n of_o the_o
