Both of the above works are, with slight changes, the same as " Trait^ 

 de toute sorte de Chasse et Peche." 2 vols., 12mo. Amsterdam:

 ♦Angler and Swim3Ier. 

 Outside title of a little aftair ; 28 pages, 12mo. : by Hudson and Co., 

 London, about 1830. The angling part is called " The Angling Com- 

 panion, or Perfect Instructor in that useful and pleasing Occupation, 

 &c. ;" to which is annexed abstracts of the several acts of Parlia- 

 ment relative to fish, &c., as private property. This, like some other 

 titles below, is scarcely worth notice, except for the purpose of pre- 

 venting other collectors from searching for them, as I have done, un- 

 der the supposition that they might be worth having.

Ellis says : " A manuscript note in a copy of the work, formerly belong- 

 ing to Mr. White of Crickhowell. ascribes it to Dr. Scott of Ipswich." 

 Dr. Thomas Scott, of Ipswich, was a dissenting minister, the author — 

 among other works — of a translation of Job into English verse, with 

 notes. He died at Hapton, Norfolk (to which place he removed from 

 Ipswich), in 1775. It contains ironical notes in imitation of Dr. 

 Kino's Art of Cookerv. 



It is a very clever production, and contains many passages of beauty ; 

 e. g. 



" Walton could teach his meek enchanting vein ; 

 The Shepherd mingles with the tishing strain : 

 Nature and Genius animate his lines, 

 And our whole Science in his precepts shines." 



Heartily can I say with him — 



"I love the man who angles, and who rhymes." 



An angler without a poetical temperament is, however skilful, but a 



mere mechanic. 



This is the book Lathy stole. My copy belonged to Henry Kett, Trin. 

 Coll., Oxford, the gift of D. V. Alavor, Woodstock, January 8, 

 1811. Henry Kett was eminent as a scholar and divine (author of 

 the History of the Interpretation of Prophecy, &c). We may then 

 rank him among anglers. He was drowned, while bathing, in 1825. 

 He was perpetual curate of Hykeham, Lincolnshire.
