REV. PHILIP HEDGELAND, PREBENDARY OF EXETER. This scholarly gentleman was an early, though an infrequent contributor to ' N. & Q.,' and he always took a warm interest in its success. I find that he sent three communications to the fourth volume of the First Series (July-December, 1851). He was then at his first curacy, under the Rev. Hinds Ho well, in the conjoint parishes of Bridestowe with Sourton on the north- west borders of Dartmoor.

He died, nearly 86 years old, at his house of Chapel St. Clare, ' Penzance, on 17 April. Most of his working life was connected with that town. From 1854 to 1860 he was curate of Madron, its mother parish, and he was then appointed by the Bishop of Exeter to the incumbency of the church of St. Mary at Penzance. During his tenure of that pre- ferment the eastern part of the borough was formed into the parish of St. John, with a new church, the foundation stone of which was laid by him.

Mr. Hedgeland, who was all his life an enthusiast for books, was secretary from 1868 to 1872, and then president, of the old Subscription Library at Penzance. He has left to it, with the exception of any works which may be already on its shelves, his own collections, which were especially rich in first editions of modern English poets. Through this gift and those of previous donors, notably Halliwell - Phillipps, that town, for its population, is now without rival in our country, in the possession of a library containing books both of general utility and of exceptional value in many branches of knowledge.

Mr. Hedgeland, a native of the city of Exeter, was the senior prebendary of that Cathedral, and his sermons were always appreciated by a critical audience both there and in his own parish. He was a lovable man, with a wide circle of devoted friends. I rejoice to number myself among them.
