FOOTNOTES:

[220] Lord Egmont had written some pamphlets against the Pelhams.

[221] It was written by the Author of these Memoirs.

[222] Lord Ravensworth at first, as is mentioned, p. 266, thought that Fawcett’s observation on Dr. Johnson’s promotion, had been in relation to the Bishopric; but on recollection and discussion, it appeared to have related to the intention of making him Preceptor to the Prince of Wales.

[223] Lord Harcourt.

[224] The Dean of Durham (Dr. Cowper) and the others were literally detained privately in separate rooms for several hours; yet Murray, one of the accused, as it appeared, had evidently tampered with Fawcett the accuser, and seen him at his own house; so had Dr. Johnson.

[225] Bishop of Norwich and Lord Harcourt.

[226] In the late King’s reign, on the difference between his Majesty and the Prince.

[227] He had been one of the Masters of Westminster School.

[228] The Duke of Marlborough and the Archbishop.
