_History of York._--Who is the author of a _History of York_, in 2 vols.,

published at that city in 1788 by T. Wilson and R. Spence, High Ousegate? I

have seen it in several shops, and heard it attributed to Drake; and

obtained it the other day from an extensive library in Bristol, in the

Catalogue of which it is styled Drake's _Eboracum_. Several allusions in

the first volume to his work, however, render it impossible to be ascribed

to him. It is dedicated to the Right Honourable Sir William Mordaunt

Milner, of Nunappleton, Bart., who was mayor at the time.
