It is stated in Phibbin's Collection of material formed by him with the intention of writing a new life of Jones, which was deposited in the British Museum Library in 1848 that Theophile Smart feigned to be an Irish deserter from the "Bon Homme Richard," who swam ashore with his MS. between his teeth, and that the portrait of Jones had been originally used as a portrait of General Pascal Paoli, and was afterwards affixed to a publication for Pugawscheff, or Puogatochow, who pretended to be Peter III, and was executed at Moscow, January 10, 1775. Phibbin quotes in support of this statement Mercure Français Politique, Historique, et Litteraire, November, 1779, where Smart's book is termed a "catch penny publication."
