Publisher's Synopsis

The Prospectus had promised that Tome III. Should contain detached extracts from the ms. Known as the wortley-montague, and that No. IV. And part of No. V.

Circumstances, however, wholly beyond my control have now compelled me to devote the whole of this volume to the Frenchman's stories.
