Edinburgh: William Blackwood and Sons, 1882. xx, 564 pp., 1 chart, 5 port. 8°. The editor, referring to David Earl of Buchan (1742-1829) states (pp. 487, 488) that many distinguished Americans were entertained by him in his house at Dryburgh; and he adds that: "It is well known that Benjamin Franklin was not over well pleased with the manner of his reception in this country. That his feelings with regard to the Earl of Buchan and his brother Henry Erskine were of a kindly character, the following tribute to the brothers perhaps bears evidence. These verses-Sapphics, the metre of Canning's Needy KnifeGrinder,'-are, as regards measure, of the most lax description, but will doubtless be considered a literary curiosity, whether they be Dr. Benjamin Franklin's or not. There is much doubt on this point. The original is without signature or date, but is in the handwriting of Earl David, with the endorsement by him "Dr. Franklin to the Earl of Buchan.'
