Minor Queries with Answers.

_Lewis's "Memoirs of the Duke of Gloucester."_--Can you inform me who was

the editor of

"Memoirs of Prince William Henry, Duke of Gloucester, from his birth,

July the 24th, 1689, to October 1697: from an original Tract written by

Jenkin Lewis. Printed for the Editor, and sold by Messrs. Payne, &c.,

London: and Messrs. Prince & Cooke, and J. Fletcher, Oxford, 1789."

In a rare copy of this volume now before me, it is attributed by a

pencil-note to the editorship of Dr. Philip Hayes, who was organist of

Magdalen College Chapel, Oxford, from 1777 to 1797. I should be glad to

learn on what authority this could be stated. I am anxious also to know the

names of any authors who have published books respecting the life, reign,

or times of King William III.?
