[4] Neither Defoe nor Mrs. Haywood contributed to the little budget of miscellaneous matter prefixed to the second issue of the Life and Adventures (August, 1720) and sometimes found separately under the title:  Mr. Campbell’s Pacquet, for the Entertainment of Gentlemen and Ladies.  Containing I. Verses to Mr. Campbell, Occasioned by the History of his Life and Adventures.  By Mrs. Fowke, Mr. Philips, &c.  II.  The Parallel, a Poem.  Comparing the Poetical Productions of Mr. Pope, with the Prophetical Predictions of Mr. Campbell.  By Capt.  Stanhope, [i. e.  W. Bond.] III.  An Account of a most surprizing Apparition; sent from Launceston in Cornwall.  Attested by the Rev. Mr. Ruddie, Minister there. London:  For T. Bickerton. 1720.  See W. Lee, Daniel Defoe, 322-8.

[5] Life and Adventures of Mr. Duncan Campbell, 171.

[5a] This volume was announced in the British Journal as early as Dec. 15, 1722.

[6] She or Bond may have inserted the passage to advertise a projected work.  Mr. Spectator had already remarked of the letters that came to his office:  “I know some Authors, who would pick up a Secret History out of such materials, and make a Bookseller an Alderman by the Copy.” (No. 619.)

[7] Defoe’s Life and Adventures is mentioned on pp. 17 (with a quotation), 61, 111, 246, 257.

[8] Part II.  Being a Collection of Letters found in Mr. Campbell’s Closet.  By the Lady who wrote the foregoing sheets.  Part III.  Containing some Letters from Persons of Mr. Campbell’s more particular Acquaintance.

[9] “The Pleasure with which you received my Spy on the Conjurer, encourages me to offer you a little Supplement to it, having since my finishing that Book, had the opportunity of discovering something concerning Mr. Campbell, which I believe your Lordship will allow to be infinitely more surprizing than any Thing I have yet related.” The Dumb Projector, 5.  Mr. G. A. Aitken, in his introduction to Defoe’s Life and Adventures, gives the two pieces unhesitatingly to Mrs. Haywood, while other students of Defoe,—­Leslie Stephen, Lee, Wright, and Professor Trent,—­are unanimous in their opinion that the first exploiter of the dumb wizard could have had no hand in the writing of these amplifications.  The latest bibliographer of romances and tales, Mr. Arundell Esdaile, however, follows the B.M. catalogue in listing The Dumb Projector under the convenient name of Defoe.

[11a] In 1734 appeared a compilation of tables for computing Easter, etc., entitled Time’s Telescope Universal and Perpetual, Fitted for all Countries and Capacities ...  By Duncan Campbell.  What connection, if any, this book had with the fortune-teller or with any of the persons connected with his biography appears not to have been determined.
