by Hodgson & Co., 10, Newgate Street, ex- cept that of "Mr." John Jackson, which has no signature of draughtsman or engraver, and was published by W. Cole, 10, Newgate Street. All are in fighting attitude, but only Jackson wears boxing-gloves. The years of publication were 1822-4. Their names are James Ward, Ben Burn, Hickman (' The Gas- light Man '), Daniel Mendoza, John Randall, Bill Neate, John Langan, ' Mr." John Jack- son, Thomas Cribb, John Martin, Richard Curtis, Isaac Bitton, and Garrell('The Suffolk Champion ').

I seek information as to both series. How far do they lack completeness? In what circumstances was the first series published 1 What of Richard Dighton, whose name is not given in the books of reference, though Robert Digh ton's is 1 Are there many of these pic- tures in existence 1 ? Do they possess any special interest to collectors ? Are they of value 1

The whole series is in remarkably good preservation, though many have in the mar- gin been reduced from the original size by cutting down by a stupid binder. The volume also contains, with numerous others, an engraving of 'The North-West View of Westminster Hall,' &c., from a drawing by Thomas Sandby, Esq., R.A. This was taken before the removal of the decayed battle- ments and of the coffee-houses which con- cealed the sculptured decorations, added at the time of the repairs in the reign of King Richard II. " Published April 26, 1808, by John Thomas Smith, No. 31, Castle Street East, Oxford Street. Engraved by Thos. Hall." JNO. W. CREED.

CROMWELL'S DAUGHTERS. Are any por- traits extant of Cromwell's daughters ? Are any descendants living? If I remember rightly, Richard Cromwell never married, but the Protector had other sons besides several daughters. E. E. COPE.

[Richard Cromwell married on 1 May, 1649, Dorothy Mayor, or Major, and had at least a son Oliver (died 1705) and three daughters. A descend- ant of Cromwell's great-granddaughter Mary Russell inquired at 8 th S. viii. 287 concerning his ancestress. See also Waylen's ' House of Cromwell,' 1880.]
