The copy owned by the Duke of Devonshire formerly belonged to John Philip Kemble, the tragedian. It contains a number of manuscript corrections, probably from the hand of the author, among them the word "Bographical" on the title-page, which is changed to "Biographical"; "Monoropolis," which is changed to "Moropolis." The title-page has been torn at the bottom, and the figures 14 appear in ink. The following lines have been written in this copy by Kemble: "Androboros, etc. Printed at Mosicropolis. Whoever made the correction meant, I suppose, to imply that it was printed at Moros Polis--'Foolstown.' The corrections that run all through the piece, and the key to the characters, make me suppose that this was the author's copy." On the title, Kemble has written, "Collated and perfect, J. P. K., 1798." Gov. Hunter was assisted in the writing of this piece by Chief Justice Lewis Morris. HUTTON, JOSEPH JOSEPH HUTTON was born in Philadelphia, Pa., February 25, 1787, and died in Newbern, N.
