Excerpt from A Rememberance of the Honors Due to the Life and Death: Of Robert Carle of Salisbury, Lord Treasurer of England, &C, The Editor's researches have not enabled him to supply any certain information concerning the Author of this curious little Work, but he strongly suspects it was written by Ralph Jackson, an attendant upon the Earl. Its merits, however, are considered sufficient to entitle it to a respectful notice, among our detached pieces of Biography. As such, it is now reprinted, from the rare original, formerly in the Tempest Library, but now in the possession of a friend, in an uniform style with the Life of Bishop Andrews, and King Henry the Third, recently presented to the public by the same Editor. The accompanying Portrait is a most admirable copy, by Bewick, of that which is prefixed to the original work.
