Book Description
This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1863 edition. Excerpt: ...felt, at separating himself, for so large a part of every year, from played, in connection with which the name of Dischaullis is first heard of.--.Chess MonthIy, vol. ii. pp. 58-59.)

The earliest date is in Fffhraary j in 01W he seys he cannot be m Paris until the ioth of June-, home, to which he clung so tenderly; and, in 1775, he spent his first season in London, under the new arrangement.

The publication of the new edition of the Analyse, in 1777, appears to have been promoted by them, with a view to put into his hands an extraordinary sum at the beginning of his connection with the Club. The edition itself was dedicated "to the very illustrious and honourable Members of the Club," and the name of every member, without exception, appears upon the List of Subscribers. The personal exertion of the members to enlarge the List is evinced by the character of the names which were added to their own. We can fancy the Scotch Duke of Athol getting the name of the Scotch Duke of Argyle, and Charles Fox bantering Lord North into putting down his guinea. Gibbon, with his courtly smile and the tap on his snuff-box, may have won the support of Lady Di Beauclerk; and the activity of dear Mrs. Howe shall have (in my mind) the credit of so many of the fifty noble ladies, as did not subscribe in obedience to their husbands. As the French names do not exceed fifty--although these form a brilliant array--the inference is a very clear one, that the edition was especially an HABITS IN LONDON. 75 i affair of the English Club, and connected with their...
