Eighteen Year last past that he has lately
been to this Deponent's house to breakfast
and dine about four or five times
lately, [..] that of late [..] by his
Appearance this Deponent imagined he
must have been in low Circumstances
but always paid for whathe had
Refreshment he had there, that on
Wednesday last (the first Instant) he
came to this Coffee house about half
past four o'Clock in the Afternoon
and ordered same Cold Veal Pye & Co and others
for his Dinner which he eat and had
a Pint of porter and half a Pint
of Port Wine which he drank and
about a quarter after seven in the
Evening he called for and paid
his Reckoning which amounted to
two Shillings and ten Pence half
penny, and he gave the Boy who is
the
the Waiter, three Shillings and told
him to keep the difference of the said
Reckoning for himself and then
went away immediately and during
the time he was there be read the
News Papers, and now seemed (as to
his State of Mind) as as usual being
very Complaisant and collective,
and further this Deponent knoweth
not.
