An Account of the Conference between Mrs.Bull and Don.
Diego.* * A Tory nobleman who, by his influence upon the House of Commons, endeavoured to stop the Treaty.
The lawyers, as their last effort to put off the composition, sent Don Diego to John.

Don Diego was a very worthy gentleman, a friend to John, his mother, and present wife, and, therefore, supposed to have some influence over her.

He had been ill used himself by John's lawyers, but because of some animosity to Sir Roger was against the composition.

The conference between him and Mrs.Bull was word for word as follows:-- DON DIEGO .-- Is it possible, cousin Bull, that you can forget the honourable maxims of the family you are come of, and break your word with three of the honestest, best-meaning persons in the world--Esquires South, Frog, and Hocus--that have sacrificed their interests to yours?
It is base to take advantage of their simplicity and credulity, and leave them in the lurch at last.
MRS.
