Note. In Adams copy of Port Folio in MBAt, the first numbered bears this note at head: "Com [i.e. communicated?] by JA." Second number has "JA Com:". Accepted by Morris and Kerber in their article on the Port Folio as by JA, but see their own discussion, which suggests the at least equal possibility of JQA's authorship.
