history of this word, or indicate where it is to be found? or, if the
history is not known, state when, and by whom, it appears to have been

_Howlett the Engraver._--Can any of your readers furnish me with an
account of the "Publications of Bartholomew Howlett," who was an
engraver of some note, and about forty-five or fifty years ago resided
in London? He was a native of Louth in Lincolnshire, and about
forty-five years ago, being then resident (as appears from his book)
somewhere in the neighbourhood of the Blackfriars' Road, published by
subscription a book containing a series of engravings, entitled "Views
in Lincolnshire."

Louse, and Religion_: a fable.
