Uncontrolled note

Unrelated to 'A fragment of the history of ... John Bull', [1785] (cf. t109550) and the various parts of 'Law is bottomless-pit' by John Arbuthnot. The types and paper quality may suggest a date after 1800 (Watermark: "Whatman"; foxed), but Hookham and Carpenter traded from 1791-1799 (Maxted)
