I have a portrait of Wolfe in my possession, and, I believe, the

original from which the print, stated to be a scarce and contemporary

one, was taken, which furnishes the frontispiece to the second volume of

the _History of the Canadas_, by the author of _Hochelaga_. It fell,

singularly enough, into my hands a short time previous to the appearance

of the work in question, and I have been enabled since to trace its

possession by parties, and amongst them members of my own family, for a

very lengthened period. The artist I have not been able to discover; but

perhaps some possessor of the print, should the name appear, will afford

this information.
