Of JOHN CROSSE, Esq., F.S.A., F.R.S.L., 

 M. G. S., &c., and a native of this place, I may 

 observe that, although his literary attainments

 supplement to the Histories of Music, by Burney, 

 Hawkins and others is his " Account of the 

 " Grand Musical Festival, held in September, 

 " 1823, in the Cathedral Church of York, &c.;
