A33268	Mr. John Mackenzyes Narrative of the siege of London-Derry a false libel, in defence of Dr. George Walker written by a friend in his absence.	Clark, Joseph Wilkinson.	1690 (1690)	Wing C4460; ESTC R21566	14,479	22

truth_n these_o be_v to_o certify_v that_o whereas_o in_o a_o late_a pamphlet_n write_v by_o mr._n j._n makenzy_n entitle_v a_o narrative_a of_o the_o siege_n of_o london-derry_n it_o be_v mention_v among_o other_o thing_n that_o dr._n walker_n late_a governor_n of_o the_o say_a city_n do_v fell_a and_o embezle_n the_o store_n of_o the_o say_a garrison_n and_o that_o the_o say_a dr._n be_v so_o inconsiderable_a there_o that_o his_o note_n be_v not_o accept_v by_o the_o store-keeper_n of_o provision_n for_o delivery_n of_o any_o out_o unless_o the_o same_o be_v first_o sign_v by_o the_o governor_n and_o major_n adam_n thereby_o insinuate_v that_o the_o say_a dr._n be_v not_o governor_n of_o the_o say_a city_n i_o do_v hereby_o declare_v that_o the_o say_v dr._n neither_o do_v or_o can_v fell_v or_o embezle_n any_o of_o the_o store_n the_o same_o be_v in_o the_o custody_n of_o the_o store_n keeper_n and_o never_o deliver_v out_o to_o any_o but_o for_o the_o necessary_a use_n of_o the_o garrison_n by_o order_n from_o the_o governor_n and_o i_o do_v further_o declare_v that_o i_o be_v make_v store_n keeper_n of_o the_o provision_n at_o the_o begin_n of_o the_o siege_n and_o continue_v so_o to_o the_o end_n and_o do_v from_o time_n to_o time_n deliver_v out_o provision_n upon_o the_o say_a dr._n walker_n order_n as_o governor_n in_o which_o station_n he_o continue_v in_o great_a esteem_n among_o we_o until_o the_o say_a city_n be_v relieve_v by_o major_a general_n kirk_n and_o i_o never_o know_v his_o order_n dispute_v as_o in_o the_o say_a pamphlet_n be_v express_v during_o the_o whole_a time_n of_o the_o siege_n and_o i_o do_v look_v upon_o the_o say_a pamphlet_n as_o to_o what_o relate_v to_o the_o say_a dr._n to_o be_v not_o only_o false_a but_o scandalous_a and_o malicious_a and_o last_o i_o do_v declare_v that_o some_o person_n concern_v in_o put_v out_o this_o pamphlet_n as_o i_o presume_v since_o i_o come_v to_o london_n do_v come_v to_o i_o and_o will_v have_v draw_v i_o by_o great_a promise_n to_o have_v bespatter_v and_o abuse_v the_o reputation_n of_o the_o say_a dr._n witness_v my_o hand_n the_o 25_o the_o day_n of_o april_n 1690._o edw._n curl_v and_o now_o do_v not_o your_o ear_n tingle_v be_v not_o your_o face_n cover_v with_o a_o blush_n who_o have_v plot_v cabal_v and_o contrive_v such_o a_o scandalous_a libel_n and_o a_o more_o calumniate_a preface_n and_o now_o to_o hear_v that_o some_o of_o you_o have_v be_v tamper_n to_o pervert_n truth_n and_o to_o add_v subornation_n to_o bear_v false_a witness_n to_o use_v the_o word_n of_o the_o narrative_a for_o once_o i_o shall_v not_o take_v notice_n of_o so_o trivial_a a_o thing_n as_o mr._n walker_n sign_v first_o but_o that_o it_o be_v improve_v into_o a_o argument_n of_o his_o forward_a temper_n to_o crowd_n in_o his_o name_n and_o this_o be_v instance_a in_o the_o case_n of_o robert_n lowther_n pag._n 62._o i_o can_v tell_v whether_o he_o crowd_v in_o his_o name_n above_o mitchelbourn_n or_o whether_o mitchelbourn_n in_o modesty_n leave_v room_n for_o he_o to_o write_v over_o his_o name_n but_o this_o i_o know_v that_o robert_n louther_n be_v one_o of_o those_o who_o have_v attest_v dr._n walker_n be_v governor_n and_o since_o colonel_n baker_n die_v in_o june_n i_o can_v in_o my_o small_a reason_n apprehend_v what_o shall_v move_v dr._n walker_n to_o expunge_v the_o mention_n of_o baker_n be_v governor_n in_o november_n follow_v i_o have_v say_v enough_o to_o satisfy_v all_o manner_n of_o person_n but_o such_o as_o be_v resolve_v never_o to_o be_v satisfy_v that_o dr._n walker_n be_v from_o first_o to_o last_o one_o of_o the_o governor_n of_o london-derry_n and_o principal_a overseer_n of_o the_o store_n and_o magazine_n by_o the_o before_o mention_v certificate_n and_o letter_n it_o evident_o appear_v that_o he_o be_v not_o a_o nominal_a or_o titular_a governor_n but_o a_o active_a and_o successful_a manager_n of_o his_o trust_n and_o therefore_o it_o can_v never_o be_v enough_o wonder_v at_o that_o man_n who_o profess_v the_o protestant_a religion_n who_o pretend_v meekness_n and_o moderation_n who_o pass_v as_o teacher_n of_o flock_n as_o the_o writer_n of_o the_o preface_n and_o the_o owner_n of_o the_o narrative_a shall_v with_o so_o much_o bitterness_n malice_n and_o scorn_n not_o only_o taunt_v and_o satyrize_n at_o random_n and_o by_o conjecture_n upon_o a_o protestant_n a_o clergyman_n and_o a_o gentleman_n of_o a_o good_a family_n in_o yorkshire_n who_o can_v be_v deny_v to_o have_v be_v a_o actor_n and_o
