Notes

[1]

See Allen T. Hazen, Samuel Johnson's Prefaces & Dedications (1937), pp. 206-207, n. 3, for a partial list of such writers.

[2]

The description of the Chronicle in the CBEL (II, 715) indicates uncertainty—i.e., "No. 105, 5 April 1760-[1763?]"—about the terminal date of publication; I assume that No. 105 was the last issue of the paper.

[3]

Hazen, pp. 205-209; Boylston Green, "Possible Additions to the Johnson Canon," Yale University Library Gazette, XVI (1942), 70-79.

[4]

It should be noted, however, that in his Yale dissertation (1941) on "Samuel Johnson's Idler" Boylston Green, who also examined (p. 136) the advertisements in the Chronicle, drew the same conclusion as I do about Newbery's connection with the paper. Mr. Green has generously encouraged me to print the results of my examination.

[4a]

Hazen, p. 207.

[5]

These include Nos. 55, 57, 60, 62, 63, 65, 66, 69, 72, 77, 79, 84, 89, 94, 95, 102, 103, and 105.

H. R. Plomer, G. H. Bushnell, and E. R. McC. Dix, A Dictionary of the Printers and Booksellers . . . in England . . . from 1726 to 1775 (1932), p. 43.

[7]

For my arguments concerning the authorship of the notice "To the Publick" in this announcement, see "Dr. Johnson and the Public Ledger: A Small Addition to the Canon" following in this volume of SB.

Neither appears in any of the following for the months of January and February, 1760: London Chronicle, London Evening Post, London Gazette, Public Advertiser, Read's Weekly Journal, and Whitehall Evening Post.
