The progress of this Publication has been unavoidably delayed through illness, domestic affliction, and other causes; but the Editor now hopes to bring the entire work to a speedy conclusion; health and other things permitting.

The Quaker and his maid. 1675.

On June 26th, 1675, a warrant was issued by the Secretary of State to search for this pamphlet. The editor has not as yet been able to discover a copy. It was reprinted in the year 1739 under this title, "A merry conversation which lately passed between a very noted Quaker and his maid, upon a very merry occasion. To which is added, The Members to their Sovereign, By Hil—d Ja—bs, Esqre. Third edition." It is a grossly indecent production. A copy of this reprint is in the editor's possession, purchased from the library of the late George Daniel, Esq., Canonbury Square. It is in octavo, and contains 18 pages.
