' PROSOPOPCEIA TBEDEGAR,' said to hav been written by Percy Enderby, autho of ' Cambria Triumphans ' suggestec emendation for line No. 17: "A sprung from me Pencoyd Llantarnam sort." The last two words probably reac "and Llansore." Llansore was a well known seat of the Morgans. The wore " sore "is taken by Mr. G. B. Morgan in hi ing under the penal laws.

Sm WILLIAM EVERETT. The biography n the second supplement to the 'D.N.B. concludes with the words : "His wife survived him without issue." Reference to
 * he current 'Debrett ' shows that he lefi

two daughters, one of whom is married to the second Baron Cozens -Hardy, and the other to Lieut. -Col. J. W. H. Maturin, A.S.C. HARMATOPEGOS.

EDMUND PYLE, p.D. In his 'Memoirs of a Royal Chaplain, 1905,' p. 2., Mr. A. Hartshorne states that Thomas Pyle, the father of Edmund Pyle, married Mary, dau. of Charles Rolfe. This is not correct. Mary, b. 1682, was the daughter of Edmund Rolfe, Mayor of King's Lynn, 1713 and 1720. She married the Rev. Thomas Pyle in 1701 ; her daughter Elizabeth was baptized at St. Margaret's, Lynn, on Jan. 28, 1702, and her son Edmund was baptized at St. Nicholas, Lynn, on Apr. 20, 1704, and not in 1702, as stated in Mr. Hartshorne's ' Memoir.' R. T. GUNTHER.

ST. CUTLAYCE. In the MS. Lincoln Chapter Acts, under June 15, 1353, is a record of a "poor clerk" being admitted to serve "ad altare s'ce Cutlayce." I think it must be a mistake for "Vci Gutlaci." There was an altar of St. Guthlac in Lincoln Minster at the time, probably that which was called St. Anne's a few years later. See Braishaiv and Wordsworth's 'Lincoln Cathedral Statutes,' Ixx. n. J.

CORONATION OF Louis XI. In Michelet's ' Histoire de France,' vol. vii. bk. xiii. chap. 1, there occurs the following passage :

" II endura en roi Chretien tous les honneurs du sacre. Les pairs prelats et les pairs princes 1'ayant plac6 entre des rideaux, il fut depouille, puis, dans sa naturelle figure d'Adam, presente a 1'autel .... II fut, selon le rituel, oint au front, aux yeux. a la bouche, de plus au pli des bras, au nombril, aux reins. Alors ils lui passerent la chemise, Fhabillerent en roi...."

When was this strange ceremony performed for the last time ? Did Louis XIV. and Charles XII. have to submit to it ?

PORCELAIN MASONIC MUG. I have by me an old porcelain masonic mug holding about a pint with about seventeen signs of the craft, and having the following words at bottom :

" The world is in pain, our secrets to gain. But still let them wonder and gaze on, for thay ne'er can divine the woid nor the sign of free and accepted mason."

It belonged to my great-grandfather, John Lorking, woolcomber, of Cavendish, Suffolk. Would this be Lowestoft ware ?

C. C. WOOLLARD. 68 St. Michael's Road, Alderbhot, Hants.

FRANCIS LHERONDELL. He was incumbent

of St. Hilda's, South Shields, ind. Nov. 26,

.748, ana resigned in 1750, to be Vicar of

West Walton in Lincolnshire. When did he

esign this living ? When and where did

le die ? I should be glad of any further

nf ormation concerning him.

OIL-PAINTING OF WILLIAM AND MARY. A Norfolk farmhouse contains an oil-painting

vhich shows William III. (in the dress of a Roman general) and Mary II. (in modern

ttire) seated on thrones in a barge drawn >y monsters, accompanied by nymphs and

ther creatures playing instruments of music. The lilies of France lie amid the. waves. Monks with holy water cower before plump archer. An ill-clad personage

scends with chalice and missal. Good and

vii spirits (with human faces) contend in
