"I went back to Oxford after that," he continued.
'But you will not deny, said the Justice, 'that you were the person named in it; and that eh your own act destroyed it? 'I will neither deny my name nor my actions, Justice, replied Mr. Herries, 'when called upon by competent authority to avow or defend them. But I will resist all impertinent attempts either to intrude into my private motives, or to control my person.
After all, I was full of admiration at finding three honest men in politics. I ought not to be full of astonishment if I find only two."
