"N.B. Who was the compositor of this very reputable pamphlet, is, perhaps, absolutely uncertain with every body, but the excellent author of it: He says 'I am an anonymous writer, and hope never to be known.' --The two great men are supposed to be the Duke of Newcastle and Mr Pitt."--Half-title. Attributed to John Douglas, "with Lord Bath's advice," in the Dictionary of national biography.
"A short speech and character of Mr. Pitt, extracted from Smollett's History."--p. [56].
