Mr. John Dunton's dying groans from the Fleet-Prison: or the national complaint, that the author of Neck or nothing has gone twelve years unrewarded, for his Early, Bold, and Successful Venture of Life and Fortune, in detecting his Majesty's Enemies when plotting in the Royal Palace to restore the Pretender, as 'twas represented, In an Humble Petition to his Majesty, that Mr. Dunton might not be left to Starve in a Jail, for the Debts he has contracted in serving The Royal Family: This Petition proving to our Gracious Sovereign, that 'tis Sir Robert Walpole's Duty, and Place (as First Lord of the Treasury) to see Publick Services rewarded, but more especially Mr Dunton's, as his Honour formerly acknowledg'd them in a Noble Present of Guineas, and by a Solemn Promise to see him further Rewarded, the Non-Performance whereof (it his Honour prove so ungrateful to a Man that ventur'd his All in the Service of his King and Country) will not only lay Mr. Dunton's utter Ruin at Sir Robert Walpole's Door, but will blacken his Name and Character to the World's End, as is sully prov'd in this Petition to his Majesty, which was sent to Sir Robert Walpole as soon as Printed, with a Promise it should never be publish'd, if this Knight of the Bath and Garter, will do Mr. Dunton that common Justice to inform his Majesty how long the Author of Neck or Nothing has gone unrewarded for his Distinguish'd Services to his King and Country. His Majesty's first Speech from the Throne. I will never forget the Obligations I have to those that have distinguish'd themselves by their Zeal and Firmness to the Protestant Succession, against all the Open and Secret Practices that have been used to defeat it
