Notes

[1]

For the various views, see William M. Sale, jr., Samuel Richardson: A Bibliographical Record (1936), pp. 39-44. I should like to thank Mr. G. R. Proudfoot for valuable help and for suggestions concerning the bibliographical evidence. He is not responsible for the detailed conclusions reached.

The repairs mentioned seem to be those begun in the 1690s. The hall was repaired in 1720, and there were already plans for a new Library in 1725—but these had to be deferred. See H. C. Maxwell Lyte, A History of Eton College (1911), p. 289.

The catchword at the foot of p. 72 is 'LET—', leading to Letter II on the next recto. It is likely that the original intention was to start the next gathering with another letter, but the alteration made this impossible.

For example, two paragraphs earlier, the reviser had turned a reference to the ownership of a lodge at Windsor from the present to the past tense. One paragraph back he had cut out a parenthesis to the effect that all bridges over the Thames were of timber.

See Sale, Richardson: A Bibliographical Record, p. 41. The note is possibly by William Musgrave.
