_Meigham, the London Printer._--J. A. S. is desirous of obtaining
information regarding a printer in London, of the name of Meigham, about
1745-8, or to be directed where to search for such. Meigham conversed, or
corresponded, about Catholicity with Dr. Hay, the then vicar-apostolic of
the Eastern District of Scotland.
_Adamsoniana._--Is anything known of the family of Michel Adamson, or
Michael Adamson, the eminent naturalist and voyager to Senegal, who, though
born in France, is said to have been of Scottish extraction?
Where is the following poem to be met with?
"Ode in Collegium Bengalense, præmio dignata quod alumnis collegiorum
Aberdonensium proposuit vir reverendus C. Buchanan, Coll. Bengalensis
Præfectus Vicarius. Auctore Alexandro Adamson, A.M., Coll. Marisch.
Aberd. alumno."
Allow me to repeat a Query which was inserted in Vol. ii., p. 297., asking
for any information respecting J. Adamson, the author of a rare tract on
Edward II.'s reign, published in 1732, in defence of the Walpole
administration from the attacks of the _Craftsman_.
Who was John Adamson, author of _Fanny of Caernarvon, or the War of the
Roses_, an historical romance, of which a French translation was published
in 1809 at Paris, in 2 vols. 12mo.?
