_Tonson and the Westminsters._--I have a small duodecimo print, in which
are represented three scenes,--
A man tossed in a blanket.
A man flogged.
A man begging.
This victim is said to be Jacob Tonson, the printer. The tormentors, who
are all in collegiate dresses, are said to be Westminster Collegians.
Are these scenes facts or fictions?
What was Tonson's offence?
Is there any other explanation of the print?
I hope some old Westminster to whom the school tradition may have descended
will be kind enough to answer these Queries.
