22-29 May 1746:11 (513)
To the Author of the Westminster Journal, March 8. Sir, I
am an ancient person, as you will guess by the particulars I
am going to write: My case, therefore, is the more worthy
of notice.
About fifty years ago I was divorced from a very bad
husband, who, on that occasion, partly through fear, and
partly through shame, thought proper to go abroad. Since
that I have been four times married, in general with pretty
good luck, my present spouse having made me happy for now
almost nineteen years. A very good sort of man he is
indeed; and I being something of the temper of Joan in the
song, would not change him for any extravagant wicked young
fellow in Europe.
