CHAP. VI. (Book 6)
Containing divers Letters from Friends upon several Occasions.
A Letter from a Friend to an Attorney in Lon∣don, to Arrest one that owed him Monies.
Friend,
I Herewithal send unto thee the Copy of an Accompt, as it was stated between J. W. of London, and my self, on the Seventh Month of the last Year, as thee mayst see by the Writing; it is a part of my outward Portion which I cannot well want: And since the Jews (our Predeces∣sors) are allowed to Implead and recover Debts due to them, I know not why Friends may not be free to secure their part of the Worldly Mammon. Therefore I would have thee to employ a carnal Officer called a Serjeant to seize upon his outward Taber∣nacle, and lay him in Custody until such time that the Monies be paid down, or some one or other (known to be conside∣rable in the Goods of this World) put his Fist of Wickedness to a further Secu∣rity,
