taught Old Moore his business. Will be
remembered as the victim Of an ex-
traordinary practical joke played on
him by Dean Swift
Against Partridge's almanac for
1708 the dean published rival al
manac. predicting Partridge's death
on March 20, about IL at night. OF q
raging fever. And on March 80 APP
peared a pamphlet giving an account
of the almanac makers death with his
confession that he was an impostor.
This was followed by Swift's "Elegy
on the Death Of Mr.. Partridge" which
SO completed the deception that the
Stationers company struck Partridge
of the rolls and applied for an in
junction against the publication OF al
manacs in his name.
Partridge advertised that he twas
not only alive, but was also alive upon
March 90" But no one believed him.
