| 500 ## - GENERAL NOTE | |
| General note | Primarily a pastiche of previous published material and gossip. Charles Wilson is believed to be a pseudonym, probably of John Oldmixon. Cf. Edmund Gosse's Life of William Congreve, p. viii, etc. |
| 500 ## - GENERAL NOTE | |
| General note | Divided into two parts, the 1st of which is not so numbered and the 2nd of which has only caption title: Memoirs, &c., part II. |
| 500 ## - GENERAL NOTE | |
| General note | The publisher may be bookseller Edmund Curll, with whose 1730 ed. of Mr. Congreve's last will and testament this work is often found bound, as here. |
| 500 ## - GENERAL NOTE | |
| General note | The last 2 leaves are an index to the work and to a different ed. of Congreve's will and testament, giving further grounds for believing that Curll is the publisher and that he issued the two works together. |
