Percy Pamph. 37 (xiv) | [Preliminary pages ix-xv only, of this Percy pamphlet; it concerns the debts and expenditure of George, Prince of Wales, later to become George IV, and has date at end: '19 June,1795'; a quotation from 'Johnson's Life of Milton', relating to money, is onthe verso of the final leaf; the writer is evidently sympathetic to the Prince of Wales and seems to be defending him from some recent charges of over-expenditure and failure to settle his debts; various anecdotes are told and Mr. Tattersall the, horse-auctioneer, is mentioned].
