text_original: He may be freely acquitted of the charges of peculation and embezzlement which were put forward as the cause of his disgrace. Some of the financial arrangements which were imputed as 1712 WORST CHARGES DISPROVED 121 crimes to him would hardly be regarded in our days as justifiable transactions on the part of an English Commander in Chief, but it must be remembered that many acts which were not considered irregularities in those days would be set down as irregular and intolerable in a time like the present.
