      title = {A bone to pick, recommended to the several water companies  of this metropolis; or a check to avarice, tyranny and  opression; in two parts. Part the first being an authentic,  or genuine account, what steps the author hath taken to  withstand the rapacity of a certain water company, as  addressed to some particular Gentlemen under their judicial  Capacity, touching their Conduct and Proceedings in this  Business. Part the second contains two letters to the above  company, respecting the rapid and unreasonable Advance of  their Water-Rents; also relating to their arbitrary and  uncivil deportment towards their Customers. Lastly, a  friendly address to the public (in some measure) stating  the trifling Expences of the Water Companies when compared  with their excessive Profits; by which the Community may  form a shrewd guess, whether imposed upon or not. But this  Address is principally intended as an encouragement to a  more public and particular Inquiry into this matter; and at  the same time to persuade the oppressed to unite in shaking  off such tyrannical yoke [electronic resource].},
