89.) To _The Keepsake_, an annual, Scott contributed in 1828 The Tapestried Chamber, My Aunt Margaret's Mirror, and The Laird's Jock, and in 1830 The House of Aspen.

I, appeared three articles entitled "Notices concerning the Scottish Gypsies," for which Scott furnished a large part of the material.

(Numbers for April, May, and September, 1817.) Lockhart says that Scott dictated to Thomas Pringle "a collection of anecdotes concerning Scottish gypsies, which attracted a good deal of notice." The first article refers to "Mr.Walter Scott, a gentleman to whose distinguished assistance and advice we have been on the present occasion very peculiarly indebted, and who has not only furnished us with many interesting particulars himself, but has also obligingly directed us to other sources of curious information." Scott quotes from the first of the three articles in his review of _Tales of My Landlord_, and he afterwards used the same anecdotes in the introduction to _Guy Mannering_.

(As there is no complete collection of Scott's letters it has been thought wise to name the various sources, so far as the letters have appeared at all in print, from which such a collection might be made.
The list includes only those books or articles in which letters were published for the first time; yet it is probably far from exhaustive.
Notes are given in regard to the number or kind of the letters from Scott to be found in some of the less-known books.) Memoirs of Sir Walter Scott, by J.G.
