JOHN TIMBS.

_Ben Jonson, or Ben Johnson._--Among some papers I possess of the Digby

family, I have an autograph poem on _The Picture of the Minde of the

Lady Venetia Digby_, by Ben "Johnson." Is this the same as Ben "Jonson?"

and if so, how comes it the "h" has been dropped from his name? Or was

there some other Ben "Johnson," a poet of that period?
