this_o performance_n or_o that_o he_o be_v to_o succeed_v be_v in_o the_o office_n of_o a_o informer_n or_o that_o some_o other_o way_n be_v to_o be_v find_v out_o to_o reward_v his_o merit_n in_o this_o matter_n time_n must_v show_v in_o the_o mean_a while_o all_o wise_a and_o sober_a man_n wonder_v exceed_o that_o my_o lord_n bishop_n will_v meddle_v with_o such_o eager_a and_o vehement_a concern_n in_o a_o sanguinary_a case_n from_o which_o by_o law_n that_o great_a dignity_n be_v exempt_v and_o do_v think_v that_o his_o lordship_n have_v better_a consult_v the_o honour_n of_o the_o church_n and_o his_o own_o reputation_n also_o if_o he_o have_v show_v himself_o more_o cool_a and_o temperate_a in_o this_o matter_n for_o though_o my_o lord_n have_v a_o very_a great_a kindness_n for_o sir_n john_n farington_n mr._n farington_n brother_n yet_o to_o show_v it_o so_o mighty_o upon_o such_o odd_a occasion_n have_v do_v no_o great_a service_n to_o his_o lordship_n nor_o sir_n

place_n for_o a_o coroner_n inquest_n to_o have_v sit_v than_o under_o lock_n and_o key_n in_o a_o bishop_n palace_n especial_o too_o in_o such_o a_o palace_n where_o the_o bishop_n and_o his_o predecessor_n have_v deny_v themselves_o to_o be_v within_o the_o liberty_n of_o the_o city_n and_o refuse_v to_o pay_v their_o poors_z tax_n whereupon_o many_o suit_n and_o difference_n have_v arise_v wherefore_o upon_o the_o whole_a we_o judge_v all_o man_n will_v see_v at_o little_a reason_n to_o lay_v this_o accident_n on_o mr._n farington_n as_o some_o gentleman_n have_v to_o lay_v the_o wound_n of_o his_o lordship_n coach_n horse_n on_o our_o dissenter_n for_o the_o horse_n be_v at_o grass_n seven_o mile_n distant_a from_o this_o city_n and_o in_o all_o probability_n be_v gore_v by_o some_o of_o the_o fat_a cattle_n among_o which_o they_o feed_v for_o beside_o that_o it_o be_v contrary_a to_o the_o common_a charity_n which_o christianity_n oblige_v we_o to_o have_v for_o all_o man_n to_o believe_v so_o ill_o of_o any_o without_o some_o proof_n so_o be_v it_o also_o manifest_o opposite_a to_o reason_n to_o credit_n that_o if_o any_o man_n rage_n and_o malice_n shall_v have_v carry_v he_o so_o many_o mile_n to_o have_v mischief_v his_o lordship_n horse_n that_o he_o will_v not_o have_v do_v it_o thorough_o and_o kill_v they_o on_o the_o spot_n rather_o than_o to_o have_v give_v they_o such_o slight_a wound_n as_o every_o silly_a smith_n can_v cure_v for_o be_v it_o know_v to_o the_o world_n his_o lordship_n horse_n be_v alive_a again_o and_o as_o well_o as_o ever_o and_o the_o person_n that_o wrought_v their_o cure_n will_v think_v themselves_o jeer_v to_o be_v call_v by_o so_o much_o as_o the_o name_n of_o farrier_n it_o be_v true_a there_o be_v a_o oath_n about_o to_o have_v be_v make_v by_o a_o right_a irish_a evidence_n that_o one_o mr._n nevil_n have_v wound_v his_o lordship_n horse_n but_o just_o then_o hear_v that_o the_o gentleman_n be_v above_o fifty_o mile_n distant_a from_o the_o place_n he_o hold_v his_o blow_n and_o we_o have_v unlucky_o miss_v that_o able_a testimony_n yet_o we_o be_v so_o far_o from_o have_v that_o uncharitable_a thought_n that_o this_o person_n have_v any_o particular_a malice_n in_o his_o oath_n against_o mr._n nevil_n that_o we_o do_v believe_v in_o our_o conscience_n that_o for_o a_o guinney_n more_o he_o will_v have_v swear_v the_o morocco_n ambassador_n have_v do_v it_o and_o we_o do_v also_o believe_v that_o if_o he_o have_v swear_v so_o he_o have_v say_v as_o much_o truth_n as_o any_o of_o those_o gentleman_n that_o have_v publish_v that_o matter_n and_o so_o much_o for_o the_o horse_n but_o lest_o any_o shall_v think_v that_o we_o speak_v this_o in_o favour_n of_o dissenter_n we_o must_v crave_v leave_n to_o say_v that_o we_o be_v and_o be_v know_v to_o be_v for_o the_o church_n of_o england_n and_o can_v hearty_o wish_v that_o dissenter_n will_v leave_v off_o conventicle_v and_o come_v to_o church_n as_o on_o the_o other_o hand_n we_o can_v also_o wish_v that_o there_o be_v less_o bitterness_n in_o our_o pulpit_n to_o invite_v they_o thither_o and_o that_o our_o little_a dapper_a clergy-wight_n will_v not_o keep_v such_o a_o whigle_a nor_o give_v they_o so_o just_a occasion_n from_o their_o ill_a prate_n and_o worse_a live_n to_o keep_v from_o thence_o for_o this_o we_o may_v say_v for_o our_o dissenter_n that_o abate_v their_o fault_n of_o not_o come_v to_o church_n they_o be_v dutiful_a and_o peaceable_a to_o the_o government_n and_o friendly_a and_o neighbourly_a to_o their_o fellow_n subject_n and_o in_o the_o general_a conduct_n of_o their_o conversation_n of_o very_o good_a moral_n this_o be_v the_o true_a and_o candid_a account_n of_o this_o matter_n to_o all_o which_o if_o you_o add_v the_o bishop_n displeasure_n against_o mr._n farington_n for_o manage_n the_o suit_n of_o his_o parish_n against_o he_o and_o the_o recorder_n
