$a The frontispiece portrait is signed as drawn by Pether [it appears to be based on William Pether's triple portrait (1765) of George Smith and his two brothers] and engraved by Hopwood. It carries the publishers' imprint, 'London. Published Feb. 28, 1811, by Sherwood, Neely & Jones'. The printers' names are repeated in the colophon. In his Preface the Editor, J. Evans, returns thanks 'in behalf of the Family of the Author' to 'the worthy writer of the Biography', but does not name him or her. The publication is dedicated by 'The Children of the Author' [that is, his three daughters, Sarah, Elizabeth and Ruth] to the Duke of Richmond [that is, Charles Lennox, 4th duke of Richmond and Lennox]. |
