Such we immediately exclude from our society, unless it plainly appears not to be their own
fault. Both these were in a prosperous way till they fell into that wretched trade of bill-broking, wherein no man continues long without being wholly ruined. By this means, not
being sufficiently accurate in their accounts, they ran back without being sensible of it. Yet
it was quite clear that I--- R--- is an honest man; I would hope the same concerning the
other.
