Remarks upon "The Delineated Presbyterian Played Hob With" - 8

But let us read a little further. “You have lyed in Order to injure the spotless Character of Individuals.” This is a most flagrant Untruth. Who were those People whom he vilified? if he had known he would have mentioned them; but as he hath not, I shall conclude that there were no such Persons; and of Consequence, this Assertion is extremely wicked, and without Foundation.

It would be a needless Task, and trespassing upon your Indulgence to make any further Remarks on this Performance, after such evident Proof, that its Author paid no Regard to Truth, as may be seen throughout the whole; I shall therefore dismiss it with saying, that I intend no Affront to any Party whatever, and that nothing but so injur’d a Cause could have induc’d me to take up my Pen, as Writing was far from my Thoughts.

PHILO-VERITATIS.
