ABSTRACT
Samuel Richardson, extract from a letter to Aaron Hill, undated, but written before 25 April 1743, Victoria & Albert Museum, Forster Collection, XIII. iii. f. 12. Richardson describes the cause of his broken relationship with Nathaniel Hooke (d. 1763), translator, historian, and friend of Pope. Richardson printed Hooke's translation of ‘Chevalier’ Ramsay's Cyrus (1730), and the exchange appears to have taken place between that date and 1734.
