_The Arundelian Marbles_ (Vol. iv., p. 361.).--MR. W. SIDNEY GIBSON, in his

account of this celebrated collection, quotes portions of an interesting

letter, from James Theobald to Lord Willoughby de Parham, but he does not

say from whence he obtained it. I have now before me two copies, one in

_Historical Anecdotes of the Howard Family_, a new edition, 1817, p. 101.;

the other in a work entitled _Oxoniana_ (published by Richard Phillips, 4

vols. 12mo., no date), vol. iii. p. 42. Now both these copies differ from

MR. GIBSON'S, and all three are at variance respecting some of those minor

details which are of so much importance in inquiries of this description.

Where is a _genuine_ copy of Mr. Theobald's letter to be found?
