There seems to be no doubt that they were originally communicated by Mr. George Ellis, who has always been considered as one of the most talented contributors to The Rolliad.  He also resided for many years at Sunninghill, and was in habits of intimacy with the owners of the Park.  Your correspondent C. (Vol. ii., p. 43.) may remark that Lord John Townshend’s name occurs only twice in my list; but his Lordship may have written some of the papers which are not in the Sunninghill volume, as they appeared only in the editions of the work printed subsequently to 1791, and are designated as Political Miscellanies.
