FIRST EDITION. 8vo (in 4s), pp. 32. 2 pamphlets in one volume, bound in recent cream goatskin. The author of the Letter to Mr. P** is not identified, but he is replying to Pulteney's An answer to one part of a late infamous libel intitled Remarks on the Craftsman's vindication of his two honourable patrons .. in a letter to the most noble author. The second work is also by the same (unknown) author, though "noble author" suggests that Pulteney, the Earl of Bath, knew who he was. The controversy was a dispute between Walpole and Pulteney, and Walpole was so enraged with Pulteney's work that he ordered the printer to be arrested..
