NOTE ON HERODOTUS BY DEAN SWIFT.

The inclosed unpublished note of Dean Swift will, I hope, be deemed

worthy of a place in your columns. It was written by him in his

Herodotus, which is now in the library of Winchester College,

having been presented to it in 1766, by John Smyth de Burgh, Earl

of Clanricarde. The genuineness of the handwriting is attested by a

certificate of George Faulkner, who, it appears, was well qualified

to decide upon it. The edition is Jungerman's, folio, printed by Paul

Stephens, in 1718.
