The insulting conduct Digitized by VjOOQ IC 190 MEMOIRS OF THE COURT of the unpopular party contributed greatly to increase the irritation of the citizens, and drove them almost to fury. The foreigners, boasting of the favour and protection of the king, inflicted all those insults on the English mechanics and tradesmen, tfeat persons, accustomed themselves to subjection and to obsequious deportment, delight to offer when they have an opportunity of asserting an arrogant superiority. An instance... of this oppressive insolence occurred in the case of one Williamson, a carpenter, who having purchased two stockdoves, was rudely deprived of them by a Frenchman, who declared that they " were not meat for a carpenter i" the poor man in vain declared, that having paid for them, he had a right to regale himself j but the French- man ran off with them, crying out that he would take them to the French ambassador. Some opprobrious language was the natural result of this insolent and shameful conduct ; the carpen- ter having given vent to his indignation, was sent to prison through the interest of the am- bassador, who, on being sued by the mayor of the city to permit his deliverance, answered, (€ that by the body of God the English knave should lose his life, for that no Englishman should deny what a Frenchman required :" nor would he give any other reply to the intercession of the carpenter's friends.
