Tor-Mohun.
I possess a copy of _The Case of Ireland being bound by Acts of Parliament
in England stated_, by William Molyneux of Dublin, Esq., which appears to
have been literally "plucked as brand from the burning," as a considerable
portion of it is consumed by fire. I have cut the following from a sale
catalogue just sent to me from Dublin:
"Smith's (Matthew) _Memoirs of Secret Service_, Lond. 1696. Written by
Charles, Earl of Peterborough, and is very scarce, being burnt by the
hangman. MS. note."
