1. What is known of his origin, family, personal history, &c.?

2. What was his precise degree of relationship to the Halseys, whom he

calls "cousins" in his will? Were they related to the family of that name

at Great Gaddesden, Herts?

3. Did he publish any, and what, letters or books? for he leaves his MSS.

of every kind to his friend Richard Glover, Esq. (the poet I presume),

with full power to collect any letters or papers he may have already

published, and also to arrange and publish any more which he may think

intended or suitable for publication.

4. Is there any published sketch of his life? The only notice I have seen

is the one of a few lines in the _Gentleman's Magazine_, just after his

death.

In compliance with your excellent suggestion (Vol. vii., p. 2.), I send

my address in a stamped envelope for any private communication which may

not interest the general reader.
