HE JESSAMINE-HAWK MOTH. This Math was bred in Eng- 
land by Mr. Dandridge, who took the Caterpillar, at Hampton-Court, fall fed, 
on the Feffamine, about the Middie of Fly ; at which Time it went into the 
Ground, and changed. to a Chry/aks, and the Moth came forth at the End of Offober. This 
Gentleman had alfo five or fix Caterpillars, of the fame Kind, brought to him, that were 
taken upon an Elder-tree in Goodman's Fields, which likewife changed to Chryfals in the 
Ground in Fuly ; and the Moths were alfo bred in Ostober ; From whence I conclude that 
= be the Time when the Fly is ufually bred.
