GOLDSMITH-PERCY PAPERS, being collections made by Thomas Percy, editor of the Reliques of Ancient English Poetry, and (1782) Bishop of Dromore, for a Life of Oliver Goldsmith, with other relevant materials. The Life, generally known as the Percy Memoir, appeared after many vicissitudes as Preface to vol. I of The Miscellaneous Works of Oliver Goldsmith, 1801, 4 vols., and much of the matter is there printed. The papers were used while in the possession of Miss Constance Isabel Meade, greatgranddaughter of Bishop Percy, by Katharine C. Balderston for A Census of the MSS. of 0. Goldsmith,1926; The History and Sources of Percy's Memoir
of Goldsmith, 1926; The Collected Letters of 0. Goldsmith, 1928. Percy's dockets, and also descriptive notes by Sir Ernest Clarke (d. 1923), accompany many of the items. Three volumes. Folio.
