The following two sidenotes appear in the margin of page 395 next to
the pararaphs which follow. All other sidenotes appear at the top of
alternate pages:
[Sidenote: December 31st, 1780.]

drink tea, sup and lye at Newbury in Berkshire.
[Sidenote: January 1st, 1781.]
The same historian will gently proceed from Newbury to Bath till he
reaches the aerial cell of the Fairy of the Green, or more probably
the white mountain. It is apprehended that the said Fairy will not be
able to dine that day before four o'clock in the afternoon.
