Both essay and letter on aged and brittle paper, with some chipping to extremities (not affecting text). Both are written in a tight, close hand. The letter: 2pp., 12mo. Jones begins: 'You will by this post, receive the Fragmentary Brathwayte Poetry, I some time since promised to send for your acceptance accompanied by a few Not…es, I have at different times, collected, relating to their Author in whom you may perhaps feel inclined to take some interest, as one of our early English Poets contemporary, if not acquainted personally with our immortal Bard Shakspear.' He contends that, although 'singular', Brathwaite was 'a very popular Character in his time, and it does therefore seem strange what could have induced him to conceal the authorship of his "Barnabie's Journal" from the World'. The letter continues in the same tone, with a long initialled postscript. The essay is 4pp., 12mo, in a bifolium, with additional leaf carrying the title 'Notices of Richard Brathwayte and his Works.' The essay assembles a mass of biographical information in a small space, with marginal notes.
