[An error in the transcription. In the manuscript it reads thus:
"Bish^p S^r Jon^n," and clearly refers to Sir Jonathan Trelawney,
Bart., consecrated bishop of {551} Bristol, Nov. 8, 1685, translated to
Exeter in 1689, and to Winchester in 1707.]
_Ferdinand Mendez Pinto._--
"Ferdinand Mendez Pinto was but a type of thee, thou liar of the first
magnitude!"
Where is the original of the above to be found? Was Ferdinand Mendez Pinto
a real or imaginary character?
