money in Plays; and as she spoke her Husband's name quick, I thought
she called it Finch. she is a good agreable woman, but talks rather
too much of in what great esteem she is had by ye world. one thing too
in particular I dislike in her; she speaks very ill of her Father
and Brother, and told us all, that they were both brutes: and proceeded
to give us an account of the many obligations she had conferred
on her brother, and how ungrateful he had been to her
but these are circumstances which I think she might have
passed over; and one would have thought that she might have
been silent on that head on her own account, as well as her
Fathers; especially as she owns, he is very fond of her. I am confident,
if mine was ever so great a brute, and as unkind as he
is kind and dear to me, yet from the consideration that he is my
Father, I should think it my duty not only to provide for him
and support him, but to love and honour him as much as possible;
how much more therefore am I indebted to you, who have behaved to
me in a manner so opposite to the foregoing? we all agreed not
to dine at Maidenhead which was the place the Newberry Machine
dines at, but we walked on and had a very pleasant walk;
and when we came to Reading we had some cold Beef and bread
and cheese. I forgot to tell you, that Mrs Vincent sung us God
