SECT. VIII.

THE sixth Chapter promises a Relation of what happened, from the Deponent's return to S. Omers, till he left the place. The Contents of the Sections 29, and 30 are infallibly false he says, because the persons there charged would not own themselves guilty. A like Answer he shapes to Sect. 31. Then he quarrels Sect. 32, because the Deponent does not in one and the same time and place report all and every the occasions of his leaving S. Omers in June; confesses (pag. 22. in his Rejoynders, to Sect. 32.) they gave him four pounds to bear the Charges of his Journey; chews over again his former absurdities touching his not being in Spain; and strives to invali∣date his rational account of the manner of his dismission from S. Omers; by opposing to it an improbable, extravagant, but impudently malicious Flam of their own devising; which it seems, he was once of a mind might have serv'd well enough for a general Answer; but upon second thoughts) and a fit of good nature, finds himself concern'd to be more particular, tho to never so little purpose.
