Notes

1 See also Samuel Shellabarger, Lord Chesterfield (New York, 1935), pp. 108-109, and Willard Connely, The True Chesterfield . . . (London, 1939), p. 274.

2 See Gentleman's Magazine, xviii (1748), 384, 432, 576; xix (1749), 384. In June 1748 Ralph Griffiths published the Memoirs of Mrs. Laetitia Pilkington; presumably because of her narrative of prolonged marital infelicity, some of the writers of Grub Street could not resist associating her name and fame with Mrs. Phillips'.
