_Sir R. Howard's "Conquest of China"_ (Vol. v., p. 225.).--Dryden, in

his letters to his sons, writes:

"After my return to town, I intend to alter a play of Sir Robert

Howard's, written long since, and lately put into my hands: 'tis

called _The Conquest of China by the Tartars_. It will cost me six

weeks' study, with the probable benefit of an hundred pounds."

The _Biographia Dramatica_ states that this play was never acted or

printed.
