The first tale alone has any connection with preceding ones. A Fox s Tale was fortunate enough to excite an interest in the minds of others than those who personally hunt. I was as earnestly entreated not to kill him as ever was Richardson to spare the honour of Clarissa; so, after his being twice hunted, I turned him out as a bagman, having first anointed him, as is the custom of the followers of that exciting pursuit, with aniseed; I connived at his escape, and have now started him afresh with what success my readers will determine. 30, Hyde Park Square, London. February
