itself has been removed to a church at Hammersmith. The second drawing represents a carved allegorical group—Charity trampling on Envy—formerly on the front of the organ gallery, from which the general view was taken. There, in the place it was designed for, it had a very telling effect. It is now fastened on to a lectern in the church of St. Michael, Paternoster Royal, with which parish that of Allhallows has been united. (11-3/8×7) D. 86-1896. 55. Doorways of Nos. 1 and 2, Laurence Poultney Hill, 1895 (Water-colour). These very handsome doorways, of a style which was not unusual in the reign of Queen Anne, are situated in so narrow a lane that it was difficult to get an effective view of them. An important brick mansion, built on this site immediately after the Great Fire, and occupied by one, "Justus Otgher," so named in an indenture, was taken down at the beginning of the eighteenth century, and replaced by the two houses of which these doorways form part. Within one of these shell-shaped canopies is the date of erection, 1703; in the other is a representation of two boys playing at marbles. On July 15th, 1704, the two houses were sold to Thomas Denning, citizen and salter, for £3,190. The Rev. H. B. Wilson, D. D. and F.S.A., who wrote a history of the parish of St. Laurence Poultney, was residing in 1831 at No. 1 (which still has a handsome staircase), while No. 2 was occupied by Mr. Justin Fitzgerald. (10-3/8×7-3/4) D. 90-1896. 56. Back of the Swan and Horseshoe and of the Admiral Carter Inns, from Montagu Court, 1887 (Black and white). Montagu Court is situated almost at the junction of Little Britain and Duke-Street. The next turning to the west leads into Bartholomew Close. The wooden building to spectator's right is the back of the Admiral Carter, which faces this latter precinct. About the year 1889 it was modernised. The house took its sign from Admiral Richard Carter, who was killed at the battle of Barfleur, May 19th, 1692. We may suppose that it was built shortly afterwards. The Swan and Horseshoe Inn, with its incongruous double sign, beyond being old and somewhat picturesque, was of no special interest. Of late years it has been rebuilt, and is now absolutely commonplace. (8-1/2 × 4-3/16) D. 48-1896. 57. Old House at the entrance to Bartholomew Close, 1886 (Black and white). This old wooden house, with its quaint gable and barge-board, was destroyed early in 1887 for the widening of the entrance from Little Britain. It was occupied by a greengrocer, whose family had lived there for nearly half-a-century. (8-7/8 × 6-13/16) D. 50-1896. 58. The Blakeney's Head Public-house, 35, Bartholomew Close, 1887 (Black and white).
