“… This is a very true and assured Diary of the chief Passages in those stirs made in Sir William York’s House, but withal a very brief one. Which made me get Mr. Richardson to send certain Queries touching several Passages which were answered from a very sure and authentick Hand; and in virtue of which Answers, I shall be able to give a stop to all the tergiversations of the Incredulous, and their evasorious Pretences, as if things might be resolved into waggish Combination. …”
