Sir Dudley North, Commissioner of the Customs, and Afterwards of the Treasury, to King Charles II.; And the Hon. And Rev. Dr. John North, Master of Trinity College, Cambridge, and Clerk of the Closet to King Charles II The following Lives were originally published after the author's death, in the years 1740 and 1742, in two volumes, in quarto. Since that period the Life of the Lord Keeper Guilford has been re published in an octavo form, but the Lives of Sir Dudley North and Dr. John North have never been reprinted, and are become very scarce. In the present edition the three pieces of biography, which, in fact, form only one work, are again presented to the public in the uniform shape, in which it was doubtless the intention of the au thor that they should appear.
