positive_o that_o the_o duke_n refuse_v the_o money_n when_o it_o be_v offer_v he_o three_o sir_n bazil_n confess_v that_o mr._n bates_n tell_v he_o the_o money_n be_v all_o for_o himself_o four_o sir_n bazil_n depose_v that_o he_o can_v not_o tell_v who_o this_o money_n be_v design_v for_o or_o what_o mr._n bates_n do_v with_o it_o for_o he_o say_v mr._n bates_n will_v not_o deal_v on_o such_o

the_o east-india_n company_n and_o last_o to_o put_v the_o truth_n of_o all_o his_o deposition_n out_o of_o question_n he_o have_v swear_v that_o mr._n bates_n bring_v he_o the_o condition_n of_o a_o

you_o from_o whence_o this_o prosecution_n arise_v original_o against_o the_o duke_n be_v too_o nice_a a_o point_n for_o i_o to_o meddle_v with_o if_o i_o can_v thus_o much_o only_o be_v certain_a that_o it_o be_v a_o matter_n concert_v before_o the_o sit_v of_o the_o parliament_n for_o i_o have_v reason_n to_o believe_v the_o duke_n speak_v of_o it_o himself_o before_o that_o time_n that_o it_o be_v pursue_v with_o great_a warmth_n by_o some_o particular_a person_n and_o there_o be_v no_o prosecution_n of_o some_o who_o be_v name_v with_o great_a ground_n of_o suspicion_n about_o the_o

servant_n absent_v himself_o that_o i_o have_v only_o two_o particular_n more_o to_o inform_v you_o of_o that_o matter_n viz._n that_o when_o the_o address_n be_v make_v to_o the_o king_n by_o the_o house_n of_o lord_n for_o a_o proclamation_n to_o apprehend_v the_o say_a robart_n it_o be_v move_v in_o that_o house_n and_o agree_v to_o by_o the_o house_n that_o there_o shall_v be_v a_o clause_n in_o the_o say_a proclamation_n to_o encourage_v the_o say_a robart_n to_o come_v in_o without_o danger_n of_o his_o be_v imprison_v which_o be_v do_v upon_o the_o duke_n inform_v the_o house_n that_o robart_n have_v write_v a_o letter_n to_o his_o chaplain_n wherein_o he_o have_v declare_v that_o he_o be_v flee_v only_o for_o fear_n of_o be_v put_v into_o prison_n have_v hear_v before_o he_o go_v away_o of_o so_o many_o be_v send_v to_o the_o tower_n who_o be_v witness_n in_o that_o affair_n and_o that_o messenger_n have_v be_v send_v to_o take_v he_o and_o be_v a_o stranger_n he_o can_v not_o hope_v to_o find_v many_o friend_n in_o this_o country_n to_o protect_v he_o and_o yet_o this_o encouragement_n for_o he_o to_o return_n be_v never_o put_v into_o the_o say_a proclamation_n the_o other_o particular_a be_v that_o in_o june_n last_o a_o information_n be_v carry_v to_o the_o duke_n by_o one_o who_o i_o suppose_v think_v the_o duke_n be_v unwilling_a to_o have_v his_o servant_n take_v that_o a_o man_n have_v be_v that_o day_n with_o a_o friend_n of_o he_o to_o ask_v what_o reward_n any_o man_n will_v get_v who_o shall_v apprehend_v mounseur_fw-fr robart_n for_o that_o he_o can_v take_v he_o any_o night_n about_o eight_o a_o clock_n but_o that_o he_o will_v not_o do_v it_o for_o nothing_o to_o which_o the_o informer_n tell_v the_o duke_n his_o friend_n have_v answer_v that_o he_o have_v best_o go_v and_o acquaint_v a_o secretary_n of_o state_n with_o it_o but_o whether_o the_o man_n do_v go_v to_o a_o secretary_n or_o not_o the_o informer_n know_v not_o but_o say_v that_o some_o care_n must_v be_v take_v or_o robart_n will_v be_v certain_o apprehend_v in_o a_o night_n or_o two_o to_o this_o the_o duke_n reply_v as_o i_o be_v tell_v by_o the_o informer_n himself_o i_o thank_v you_o for_o the_o information_n and_o desire_v you_o will_v tell_v the_o man_n that_o if_o the_o secretary_n will_v give_v he_o nothing_o i_o will_v give_v he_o a_o hundred_o pound_n if_o he_o can_v take_v he_o and_o bring_v he_o to_o a_o secretary_n of_o state_n or_o to_o i_o at_o st._n james_n be_v and_o i_o have_v good_a reason_n to_o believe_v that_o the_o duke_n will_v be_v much_o glad_a to_o have_v he_o here_o than_o his_o enemy_n will_v be_v to_o see_v he_o another_o thing_n which_o be_v construe_v to_o proceed_v from_o the_o private_a animosity_n of_o particular_a person_n against_o the_o duke_n and_o which_o carry_v a_o strong_a presumption_n of_o a_o contrivance_n against_o he_o by_o those_o person_n be_v that_o on_o the_o 25_o of_o april_n when_o the_o say_v firebrass_n be_v in_o the_o custody_n of_o messenger_n of_o the_o house_n of_o lord_n and_o ought_v not_o to_o have_v be_v speak_v to_o but_o before_o the_o committee_n of_o both_o house_n or_o with_o their_o permission_n he_o be_v get_v out_o of_o the_o custody_n of_o those_o messenger_n and_o be_v entertain_v in_o a_o private_a lodging_n where_o he_o be_v for_o some_o hour_n without_o any_o messenger_n to_o attend_v he_o or_o know_v where_o to_o find_v he_o and_o it_o be_v after_o that_o day_n viz._n the_o 26_o of_o april_n that_o he_o make_v those_o deposition_n which_o reflect_v most_o upon_o the_o duke_n and_o which_o be_v yet_o more_o remarkable_a they_o who_o have_v entertain_v he_o as_o aforesaid_a on_o the_o 25_o inform_v the_o committee_n on_o the_o 26_o that_o firebrass_n have_v desire_v to_o speak_v with_o they_o but_o that_o they_o will_v not_o speak_v with_o he_o in_o private_a without_o the_o leave_n of_o the_o committee_n upon_o this_o it_o be_v that_o i_o former_o observe_v to_o you_o that_o till_o the_o 25_o which_o be_v the_o day_n of_o their_o speak_n with_o firebrass_n at_o a_o private_a lodging_n he_o know_v nothing_o as_o the_o pamphlet_n relate_v of_o any_o money_n give_v to_o any_o body_n but_o that_o day_n he_o not_o only_o know_v of_o the_o 5500_o guinea_n give_v to_o mr._n bates_n but_o he_o make_v it_o his_o own_o request_n to_o be_v call_v in_o to_o the_o committee_n and_o for_o that_o purpose_n only_o although_o it_o relate_v no_o more_o to_o his_o account_n than_o to_o you_o and_o he_o say_v not_o one_o word_n at_o that_o time_n relate_v to_o his_o own_o account_n have_v hope_n as_o be_v report_v that_o his_o own_o account_n which_o be_v for_o 40000_o l._n shall_v have_v be_v bury_v in_o the_o 5500_o guinea_n aforesaid_a and_o then_o on_o the_o 26_o which_o be_v the_o day_n that_o leave_n be_v give_v to_o speak_v private_o with_o firebrass_n he_o mention_v bargain_n and_o contract_n and_o a_o
