"7 May, 1668. Here [at the King's Theatre] I did kiss the pretty woman newly come, called Pegg, that was Sir Charles Sedley's mistress, a mighty pretty woman, and seems (but is not) modest." On this Lord Braybrooke has the following note:-- "Pegg must have been Margaret Hughes, Prince Rupert's mistress, who had probably before that time lived with Sir Charles Sedley." And then follows some account of Mrs. Hughes. But, _query_, was the "Pegg" of the _Diary_, Peg Hughes? was she not rather as I belived her to have been, Katherine Pegg, by whom king Charles II. had a son, Charles Fitz-Charles, created Earl of Plymouth, 29th July, 1675, died 1680? Katherine Pegg has escaped Lord Braybrooke. Can any of your correspondents tell me who she was? PETER CUNNINGHAM * * * * * QUERIES IN MEDIÆVAL GEOGRAPHY. What are the modern names of "Watewich," "Portum Pusillum," "Mare de Saham," "Perpessa," and "Northmuth?" They are not to be found in Ferrario's _Lexicon_ (a geographical dictionary so defective that it has not even the Latin name for Aix-la-Chapelle), nor in Baudrand's _Lexicon Geographicum_ (a good dictionary for the mediæval Latin names in France, but not so perfect as the _Index Geographicum_ attached to the volumes of Bouquet), nor in Martiniere's _Grande Dictionnarie Geographique_, nor in the Index to Wright's _Courthand_, a miserable and imperfect compilation. [These Queries are addressed to our correspondents in a very flattering review of "NOTES AND QUERIES" which appeared in the _Morning Herald_ of the 16th of November, and we shall be very glad to receive such answers to all or any of them as it may be in the power of any of our friends to supply.] * * * * * MYLES BLOOMFYLDE AND WILLIAM BLOMEFIELD'S METRICAL WRITINGS ON ALCHYMY. Sir,--I have had intrusted to me a MS. metrical book on Alchymy, "written by me Myles Bloomefylde, late of Bury Saynes Edmunde in ye Countye of Suffolke, Physytione;" but I can find no account of the author. Worton, Ritson, and Tanner, mention a "William Blomefield, born at Bury. Bachelor in Physic and a Monk of Bury," who wrote _inter alia_ a metrical work called _Bloomefield's Blossoms, or the Camp of Philosophy_. Were there two metrical writers on alchymy of the name Bloomfield, temp. Eliz. and connected with Bury? BURIENSIS. [The following Note by Park, which first appeared in the Edition of Wharton published in 1840, iii., p. 83., coupled with the fact that William Blomefield is described as a Bachelor of Physic, would seem to show that there is but one writer, whose proper name is not William, but Myles: "From Ashmole's _Notes on Theatrum Chemicum_, 1652. p. 478., it seems doubtful whether his name was not Myles."] * * * * * THYNNE'S COLLECTION OF CHANCELLORS.
