On August 11th, 1643, this pamphlet was referred by the House of
Commons to the Committee for examinations.[97] It seems never to
have been finished, for in the British Museum Library there is a
portion of it extending to 24 pages, but with no title page; and a
manuscript note on one of the fly leaves says that it was written
by James Howell, and that it was taken while printing, when Howell
was in prison in the Fleet, and that no more of it was printed.
