Excerpt from A Lecture on Heads
Mr. Stevens, having exhibited his Lecture with most: extraordinary success in London, afterwards delivered it, with a continuance of that success, in almost every principal town in England and Ireland. During this itinerant stage of its exhibition, it had received great additions and improvements from the hints and suggestions of Churchill, Thwart], Shnter, and many other wits, satirists, and humour ists, of that day. It othercfore re-appeared again in London almost a new performance. 8, I suppose, induced another bookseller in the Strand to publish his edition, with notes.
