Mr. Foavle, YOu‘l cblige many of your Cuftomers if yoa'l (infert in your next, or) recommend the 4z7th Paper of the Sped&ator, ( on Defamation ) to your goad natured Correlpondent, whofe Peformance appeared in your laft, and may with Affurance give this Hint, that farger Al- lowance will be made by the Public, for that Female's Foible, asa Juvenal Flight, even if all afferted were Fadts, as it undoubtedly proceeded from a Pzflion, ever much in Efteem ; then there will be for the Aathor, whofe Crime there can be no palliating, but jullly ought to be difcountenanced, for the Fondnefs to expofe the Miftakes of the Sex who deferves the moft tender Treat- ment ; inftead of publifhing their Defeéts for Fear the World fhould too foon forget them, or want fuch an officious Monitor, who difcovers neither good Humour or Generofity ; for it may poffibly tend to the Difad- vantage of thofe who want Friends to efpoufe their Caufe, or whofe Modefty may prevent their clearing up an Affair of this Nature, It behoves every Female to be againft this Author, let the Piece be right or wirong, that takes fuch Liberties with their Sex—If what he fays is falfe, ’tis unpardonable ; If true, ’ds inexcufable ; for fuch Things don’t need much Pains to fpread, and undoubtedly whatever Town this might happen in, each School-Boy knew it, before the nine Days were expired ; and every good Mind, inftead of ridicaling, and {preading the Report, would fupprefs it and pity the Mifcondu&, rendering it as favourable to the World as poffible ; their own Refle&tions, being by fuch, deemed a Punifhment adequate to their Fault, without any Aggravations. Thofe who cannot find it in their Difpofition to fay any Good, or think there is no Room for any, it were a Pity they could not refrain from publifhing Fvil : And as in this Cafe, raifing in every Stranger a Curiofity to enquire who this onforta- nate young Woman is, that’s treated with fuch Rough- nefs, as if they could not be fatish'd with its being known through one Town or Government ; when on an impartial Examination, the very Thing may ap- pear very probably, to have been occafion’d by the bafe Methods of an infinuating Blade, who impos'd on her Credulity, and after bringing her into {uch a Dilemma, fhew his Deceit, by refufing to extricate her out of her Difficalties ; who perhaps now, with many others, fe- cretly rejoice at her Misfortunes, as much as your Au- thor does publicly—Whofe Inclinations,were it poffible L & ith a large’ Thatch-Bed. of Portfmouth, and know 3 fome Years makes thirty odd Barrels of Cyder ; and will winter and fummer feven Cows and ten Sheep. There is alfo a good Well, Eaquire of Mrs. Damaris Wheelwright, and Pond to water Catde ; together w further. portunity to do what might be as worthy of Blame, as what is charged to this young Woman—But they may be greater Favourites of Fertune. However it will be kind in the Public if they will be fo favourable to the Author of that Piece, as to think that there was no Difguife intended by the Stile, but look on it as the Produ@ion of an uncultivated Mind, to whom Nature had been flack in giving a2 humane Difpofition, which may ferve as am Apology for ap- pearing fo much to their own Difadvantage. or that have ALL Perfons Indebted to, any Demands on the Eftate of Mr. Nathanael Smith, late of Kingfton in the Province of New Hampthire, deceafed, are defired to bring in their Accounts to Nathanael Smith of Epping in faid Province, Adminiftrator to faid Eftate, in order for Settlement.
