good_a friend_n i_o hope_v as_o worthy_a to_o be_v believe_v as_o that_o reporter_n and_o such_o as_o have_v have_v more_o experience_n of_o this_o place_n than_o he_o have_v or_o can_v have_v in_o

i_o remember_v when_o i_o travel_v with_o he_o through_o part_n of_o new-jersey_n he_o confess_v that_o much_o of_o this_o land_n be_v as_o good_a or_o better_a than_o the_o land_n in_o road-island_n and_o it_o be_v real_o my_o judgement_n that_o those_o people_n that_o can_v be_v content_v with_o such_o a_o country_n and_o such_o land_n as_o this_o be_v they_o be_v not_o worthy_a to_o come_v
