The Memoirs of a Lady of Quality, forming chapter 81 in Peregrine Pickle, is a separate tale, without any connexion with the other part of the novel. It contains the History of Lady Vane, renowned for her beauty and intrigues, and gave rise to the following tracts:

A Parallel between the Characters of Lady Frail and the Lady of Quality in Peregrine Pickle. In which the Facts alledged in both are stated and compared, the Character of the Heroine set in a true Light; the several other Characters examined. And some observations added on the Nature and tendency of these Kind of Writings. Lond. 1751, 8vo.

Lond. 1757-58, 4to. 4 vols. Garrick, 2134, 14s.-Second edition, 11 vols. Lond. 175860. Continuation (1763-65), 5 vols. 8vo. together 16 vols. with ports., &c. (The 16th Vol., for 1765, was written by Wm. Guthrie, during Smollett's absence on the continent.) It is stated that more than 10,000 copies of this history were sold, and that Smollett cleared upwards of 2000l. by it. Excepting those volumes which are taken as a continuation of Hume, and were afterwards printed separately in 5 vols. (more or less), Smollett's History is little read or quoted. Adolphus, in the last edition of his History (1840), vol. i. p. 175, does not hesitate to avow, that in the former editions he (Adolphus) concealed the fact of the first symptoms of George the Third's insanity, because he knew that the king did not wish it to be brought into notice; adding, "So anxious were the ministers on this point, that Smollett, having intimated it in his Complete History of England,' the text was revised in the general impression. A very few copies in the original form were disposed of, and they are now rare,"
