p48“Compare it with the London experiment of the poet Crabbe, made known to us not long since by the pen of his son.”

Inferred Reference to 'the poet Crabbe, made known to us not long since by the pen of his son' — this is the biography of the elder George Crabbe (1754–1832) by his son George Crabbe Jr. Fuller uses the younger Crabbe's biography of his father as a parallel case to the Mackintosh biography — son writes about father in both instances. The elder George Crabbe (poet) is discussed as a contrast to Mackintosh.
