the valuable Annotations of M. Fee, a series of illustrations which reflect 
the highest credit on his learning, his industry, and his critical acumen. 
"Were the ancient authors in general subjected to the same minute exami-

reference to their respective labours upon Pliny, M. Fee deserves our thanks 
almost equally w ith the learned Sillig — now, alas ! no more — is to say much 
indeed in his praise, and to bestow upon him a commendation to which he 
is eminently entitled.
