- Notes
- "Mr. Beverley Lee; or, The Days of the Shins-Plasters": pp. [129]-55. Belmont challenges antisemitic slurs; his persona may have been inspired by August Belmont, the New York agent of the Rothschilds? A condensed version, "The Panic of Thirty-Six. A Story of Wall-Street," appears in The New Mirror (Extra), pp. [4]-8. [New York: Morris, Willis, & Co., 1844]. See BAL 14366 (under Morris) for additional details, also BAL 22786 (under Nathaniel Parker Willis) for the Mirror Library where the condensed sketches by Morris were published as no. 5 in the series.
