Place of publication suggested by Wing. Reproduction of original in: Dr. Williams's Library. Created by converting TCP files to TEI P5 using tcp2tei.xsl, TEI @ Oxford. Re-processed by University of Nebraska-Lincoln and Northwestern, with changes to facilitate morpho-syntactic tagging. Gap elements of known extent have been transformed into placeholder characters or elements to simplify the filling in of gaps by user contributors. EEBO-TCP is a partnership between the Universities of Michigan and Oxford and the publisher ProQuest to create accurately transcribed and encoded texts based on the image sets published by ProQuest via their Early English Books Online (EEBO) database (http://eebo.chadwyck.com). The general aim of EEBO-TCP is to encode one copy (usually the first edition) of every monographic English-language title published between 1473 and 1700 available in EEBO. EEBO-TCP aimed to produce large quantities of textual data within the usual project restraints of time and funding, and therefore chose to create diplomatic transcriptions (as opposed to critical editions) with light-touch, mainly structural encoding based on the Text Encoding Initiative (http://www.tei-c.org). The EEBO-TCP project was divided into two phases. The 25,363 texts created during Phase 1 of the project have been released into the public domain as of 1 January 2015. Anyone can now take and use these texts for their own purposes, but we respectfully request that due credit and attribution is given to their original source. Users should be aware of the process of creating the TCP texts, and therefore of any assumptions that can be made about the data. Text selection was based on the New Cambridge Bibliography of English Literature (NCBEL). If an author (or for an anonymous work, the title) appears in NCBEL, then their works are eligible for inclusion. Selection was intended to range over a wide variety of subject areas, to reflect the true nature of the print record of the period. In general, first editions of a works in English were prioritized, although there are a number of works in other languages, notably Latin and Welsh, included and sometimes a second or later edition of a work was chosen if there was a compelling reason to do so. Image sets were sent to external keying companies for transcription and basic encoding. Quality assurance was then carried out by editorial teams in Oxford and Michigan. 5% (or 5 pages, whichever is the greater) of each text was proofread for accuracy and those which did not meet QA standards were returned to the keyers to be redone. After proofreading, the encoding was enhanced and/or corrected and characters marked as illegible were corrected where possible up to a limit of 100 instances per text. Any remaining illegibles were encoded as s. Understanding these processes should make clear that, while the overall quality of TCP data is very good, some errors will remain and some readable characters will be marked as illegible. Users should bear in mind that in all likelihood such instances will never have been looked at by a TCP editor. The texts were encoded and linked to page images in accordance with level 4 of the TEI in Libraries guidelines. Copies of the texts have been issued variously as SGML (TCP schema; ASCII text with mnemonic sdata character entities); displayable XML (TCP schema; characters represented either as UTF-8 Unicode or text strings within braces); or lossless XML (TEI P5, characters represented either as UTF-8 Unicode or TEI g elements).

I Find my Name Abused in a Late Pamphlet ( I suppose written by one Mr. George Ridpath ) as if I had sent , or Commissioned , or Ordered Mr. Andrew Johnston to counterfit the name of one Mitchell , to a Certificate without his consent . What past between Mr. Johnston and Mr. Mitchell I only know by Relation ; Mr. Mitchell and Mr. Johnston may reason this affair betwixt themselves as they see convenient . Let my Country men Read the following Declaration and then determine by the rules of honour and equitie , how far I am concerned in this Calumny . Declaration by Mr. Andrew Johnston , December , 2d . 1693. WHEREAS it is said in a Scandalous Pamphlet , Entituled the Scots Episcopal Innocence , That I forged the hand of Thomas Mitchell lately , in Cornhill , and affixed it to a Certificate , bearing that Johnston of Lockerby was Excommunicated for Adultery , which Certificate was inserted in a Book , Entituled , the Spirit of Calumny and Slander . The said Mr. Andrew Johnston declaire that I am ready to take my solemn Oath before any of the Judges in England , that Tho. Mitchell signed freely at my desire the said Certificate as I offered it , and as it was Inserted in the said Book : And that I know no other Certificate different f●om the former signed by him . AND Whereas it is most Villanously said of me in the Pamphlet , Entituled the Scots Episcopal Innocence , That I was put upon this pretended Forgery by some of the Scots Clergy ; I do declare before God , and by my hopes of Heaven , that never any one of the Scots Clergy directed or advised me to procure any Certificate , but what might be freely had ; particularly that Dr. Monro , neither directly nor indirectly by any Order of his , or the least Insinuation prompted me to do any thing as is Scandalously Reported , and this I do again repeat , as I Hope for any Benefit by the merits of our Blessed Saviour .
