Notes

The lottery fraud scheme, as described here, involved Naphtali Judah and John Sickles ("And it is a curious fact that the fraud was so deeply hid, and artfully played off under the cloak of a benevolent Jew—and an uncommonly pious Christian—that both Jews and Christians have been mortified if not disgraced by the trick," p. iv).
