Mutual Accusation - When once you've told & cant recall a Lye / Boldly, percist in't or your Fame will die. /Learn this ye Wives, with unrelenting Claws /Or right or wrong, Afsert your husbands cause.
Mr. Bunbury del. Js.Bretherton f.
Publish'd by Bretherton 3d. January 1774.
Etching, platemark 235 x 300mm (9¼ x 11¾"). Good margins; glued to backing sheet; occasional spotting.
Two rival quack doctors (whose premises, both advertising Antiscorbutic Pills to prevent scurvy, face each other) argue while their wives fight each other. Even their cats and dogs are involved in the rivalry! Etched after Henry Bunbury, an amateur printmaker who subsequently enjoyed a successful career as a designer for printsellers. 'Prints by Bunbury an his imitators were conspicuously 'polite' and appealed, like novels, 'To the Fashionable World and Polite circles'. Of good family, amply endowed with social skills, a beautiful wife and connections in high society, Bunbury's appeal was not solely aesthetic' and his admirers 'recognized his comic talent, his informed enthusiasm for literature, and his ability to draw a momentary pang with something of the sensitivity with which Sterne could write it' (Clayton). The dubious claims of both are emphasised by the crest top centre, featuring two ducks and the motto 'quack quack quack'.

Sir Hugh Myddelton (1560-1631), goldsmith and entrepreneur, after Cornelius Jonson or Janssen. Early in the seventeenth century Myddelton became involved in the successful project to bring a supply of water to London, which was still the most important source of piped water into the metropolis two hundred years later. In 1605 an act of parliament was obtained to bring water from springs near Hertford to north London (a distance of nearly forty miles), as surveyed by the mathmatician Edward Wright (1561-1615, famed for his correction of Mercator's Projection). Myddelton's involvement is not recorded until 1609, when he took the lead in the project which was completed in 1613. The establishment of the New River was Myddelton's main claim to fame, and he was involved with the running of the company for the rest of his life, although he was also involved in mining and land draining projects.

Serving for some time as a personal physician to a Moroccan nobleman, he eventually set off on his own, exploring the oases of Morocco. Doctor Nachtigal, was chosen by Mr. Gerhard Rohlf, being knowledgeable of Africa and up-to-date with Muslim customs, to undertake a great exploration of the Eastern Sudan.
