dangerous_a time_n to_o put_v the_o law_n in_o execution_n against_o the_o papist_n because_o there_o be_v example_n where_o magistrate_n some_o have_v be_v murder_v other_o attempt_v to_o be_v assassinate_v for_o put_v the_o law_n in_o execution_n against_o the_o papist_n and_o because_o we_o appear_v to_o be_v zealous_a in_o it_o therefore_o this_o care_n be_v take_v off_o we_o i_o suppose_v that_o may_v be_v the_o chief_a reason_n why_o i_o be_v put_v out_o because_o i_o have_v help_v to_o convict_v above_o five_o thousand_o papist_n in_o lancashire_n and_o furthermore_o it_o be_v necessary_a to_o know_v how_o we_o stand_v in_o the_o thought_n of_o our_o countryman_n whether_o they_o have_v a_o good_a opinion_n of_o we_o now_o we_o be_v turn_v out_o of_o office_n because_o it_o look_v like_o a_o design_v disgrace_n for_o my_o part_n it_o have_v gain_v i_o ground_n and_o i_o believe_v every_o gentleman_n else_o find_v his_o countryman_n not_o to_o esteem_v the_o worse_a of_o he_o i_o rather_o think_v better_a therefore_o see_v our_o country_n believe_v we_o to_o be_v honest_a man_n there_o be_v no_o great_a question_n but_o we_o shall_v be_v in_o great_a esteem_n at_o whitehall_n now_o they_o have_v have_v this_o trial_n of_o we_o for_o whitehall_n be_v very_o apt_a to_o incline_v to_o the_o opinion_n of_o the_o country_n and_o that_o cart_n be_v not_o well_o upon_o the_o wheel_n when_o it_o be_v otherwise_o therefore_o for_o my_o part_n i_o be_o very_o thankful_a that_o i_o be_o put_v out_o i_o will_v assure_v you_o i_o find_v my_o purse_n the_o full_a for_o it_o and_o i_o find_v my_o country_n to_o pay_v i_o altogether_o as_o much_o respect_n if_o not_o more_o than_o former_o there_o be_v but_o one_o thing_n that_o i_o grudge_v to_o part_v with_o and_o that_o be_v the_o office_n of_o custos_fw-la rotulorum_fw-la which_o have_v be_v in_o my_o family_n for_o several_a generation_n and_o for_o that_o i_o hope_v a_o particular_a reason_n may_v have_v be_v assign_v why_o they_o take_v it_o from_o i_o but_o from_o that_o day_n to_o this_o i_o can_v learn_v what_o be_v the_o cause_n it_o be_v go_v and_o farewell_o it_o and_o that_o be_v all_o the_o loss_n i_o have_v by_o be_v put_v out_o of_o the_o commission_n of_o the_o peace_n i_o have_v do_v with_o ourselves_o and_o now_o give_v i_o leave_v to_o speak_v a_o little_a concern_v other_o gentleman_n who_o be_v put_v out_o and_o no_o reason_n give_v for_o it_o when_o any_o gentleman_n be_v make_v a_o justice_n of_o peace_n it_o be_v out_o of_o respect_n to_o he_o and_o for_o the_o good_a of_o the_o country_n because_o he_o be_v suppose_v to_o be_v honest_a and_o able_a and_o without_o dispute_v no_o man_n ought_v to_o be_v put_v out_o but_o either_o that_o he_o be_v unfaithful_a unwilling_a to_o do_v his_o part_n or_o else_o he_o do_v not_o understand_v it_o and_o it_o be_v a_o great_a injustice_n to_o any_o gentleman_n to_o put_v he_o out_o without_o hear_v he_o for_o to_o judge_v a_o man_n unheard_a be_v not_o allow_v by_o the_o law_n and_o what_o be_v it_o but_o to_o judge_v a_o man_n reputation_n a_o thing_n most_o dear_a to_o every_o honest_a man_n for_o in_o any_o age_n but_o this_o it_o will_v be_v a_o great_a reflection_n upon_o a_o gentleman_n to_o be_v turn_v out_o of_o the_o commission_n of_o the_o peace_n but_o god_n be_v thank_v the_o nation_n see_v very_o plain_o who_o and_o what_o sort_n of_o person_n rule_v the_o roast_a by_o all_o the_o inquiry_n i_o can_v make_v i_o do_v not_o find_v that_o any_o man_n be_v put_v out_o but_o such_o as_o be_v very_o active_a against_o the_o papist_n such_o as_o be_v against_o arbitrary_a power_n and_o such_o as_o approve_v of_o the_o bill_n against_o the_o duke_n i_o wish_v they_o will_v give_v the_o reason_n why_o one_o gentleman_n be_v put_v out_o in_o my_o county_n for_o beside_o myself_o there_o be_v but_o two_o put_v out_o the_o one_o be_v new_o put_v in_o and_o have_v not_o act_v the_o

any_o man_n i_o think_v he_o know_v the_o work_n of_o a_o justice_n of_o peace_n as_o well_o as_o any_o man_n in_o england_n i_o except_o no_o man_n and_o for_o his_o integrity_n he_o may_v set_v all_o man_n at_o defiance_n to_o accuse_v he_o of_o the_o least_o partiality_n in_o the_o discharge_n of_o his_o trust_n and_o i_o do_v know_v that_o no_o man_n make_v it_o more_o his_o business_n than_o he_o do_v that_o he_o may_v ease_v and_o serve_v the_o country_n for_o as_o his_o ability_n be_v not_o inferior_a to_o that_o of_o any_o other_o man_n so_o do_v he_o most_o due_o put_v the_o

he_o be_v put_v out_o we_o be_v great_o hurt_v we_o be_v deprive_v of_o a_o great_a assistance_n and_o relief_n and_o we_o can_v be_v quiet_a till_o we_o be_v satisfy_v in_o that_o particular_a and_o

what_o will_v it_o not_o bear_v water_n i_o hate_v this_o as_o i_o do_v arbitrary_a power_n and_o popery_n brave_a world_n that_o we_o must_v be_v debar_v of_o the_o benefit_n of_o our_o law_n for_o

a_o fair_a step_n to_o arbitrary_a power_n to_o deprive_v we_o of_o the_o benefit_n of_o the_o law_n it_o be_v the_o same_o thing_n not_o to_o have_v law_n as_o to_o have_v law_n and_o not_o execute_v

you_o remember_v for_o king_n james_n receive_v more_o reproachful_a language_n and_o revile_n from_o they_o than_o from_o all_o other_o people_n and_o therefore_o i_o hope_v they_o have_v learn_v
