text_original: This, of course, refers to the in  juries sustained by Harley from De Guiscard's pen  knife. " Mr. St. John affected to say in several com  panies, that Quiscard intended the blow against him; which, if it were true, the consequence must be, that Mr. St. John had all the merit, while Mr. Harley remained with nothing but the danger and the pain. But, I am apt to think, Mr. St. John was either mis  taken, or misinformed.
