Notes:

Anonymous. By George Savile, Marquis of Halifax.

First published as 'Some cautions offered to consideration of those who are to chuse members to serve in the ensuing Parliament'.

Sometimes attributed to Daniel Defoe, who in fact wrote 'A letter from a member of the House of Commons to his friend in the country, relating to the bill of commerce. ..', London, 1713, in which the list of those who voted for and against the Bill was first published.

"The present E--- of O----d" is probably a spurious attribution to Robert Harley, Earl of Oxford.
