[LITERARY ANECDOTES, vol. VI. pp. 326, note, and 329, note. These Tapestry Maps are now in the Lecture Room of the Yorkshire Philosophical Society at York. They have the history printed in pp. 329, 330, attached to them, with this addition, "They were purchased by the late Earl of Orford, who presented them to Earl Harcourt, on whose death they came to the Archbishop of York, who presented them to the Yorkshire Philosophical Society, 1827." So Mr. Nichols must have been mistaken about Mr. Gough having them, or their going to the Bodleian Library.]
