A plain, good, heavy man, now much in years, and wearing out; very tall, of a fair complexion, and 70 years old. Swift. The most good-for-nothing prelate I ever knew. Macky.
He was made master of the ordnance; a worthy good-natured person, very generous, but of a middle understanding; he was murdered by that villain Macartney, an Irish Scot. Macky.

The squire had certain habits of long standing habits of coldness, distance, reserve, and he never changed materially. He survived through the ensuing autumn and winter, and finally sank during the north-easterly weather of the following spring, just two years after the death of his son Frederick. Jonquil and Macky, who had been all his life about him, were his most acceptable attendants.
His encouragements were only good words and dinners; I never heard him say one good thing, or seem to taste what was said by another. Macky. Macky.
