Jack Ketch to * Jemmy Twitcher, Esq;
STAND forth. Jemmy ! and hold up thy
hind at the bar of the public. Icharge
thee with the greatest of ad crimes, that of
trencher 01fy betraying thy King and country.
Stand forth J mmy, and answer, didst thou
not most mfamoujl, betray them by giving them
falfe information of the flat? of the BritiJh
navy ? Did not thy falfe information prevent
the navy from being timely augmented for the
defence and fafety of the crown and kingdom ?
IHas not thy treacherous information the cause
that the fleets of France and Spain now ride
wafers of the British channel ? Was not thy
falfe info> mation the real cause that the nation
is now threatened with an invasion ? Stand
forth, Jemmy, and tell the nation, what thou
haft to plead in thy defence? What was it
that induced thee to betray thy King and coun
try, in a matter of such high importance to the
honor cf the crown and welfare of the people ?
Haft thou not forever dishonored the crown and
disgraced the flag of the British navy ? Speak,
man ; haft sou anv thing to offer in excuse
of thy intolerable falfhood ? Let us hear what
thou haft to fay in thy defence ? Art thouJi
lent and def thou bid the nation defiance ?
Doji thou imagine that the people of England
are become so corrupted and spiritless, as not
to bring thee to the block for such infamous
treachery ? Or dost thou depend upon a cor
rup' majority in theHoufe to defend thee against
the hand of juflice? Or deft thou intend to
ftulk for fafety behind the throne of a much
injured and misguided Prince ? Do not, Jem
my, flatter thyjelf with any such vain ideas,
but be assu r ed, tbe fbarpeft ax is preparing for
thee, and jufticeJball be done thee by
JACK KETCH.
