It is the popular belief at Kirton in Lindsey that if a woman, who has contracted debts previous to her marriage, leave her residence in a state of nudity, and go to that of her future husband, he the husband will not be liable for any such debts. A case of this kind actually occurred in that highly civilised town within my informant's memory; the woman leaving her house from a bedroom window, and putting on some clothes as she stood on the top of the ladder by which she accomplished her descent. K. P. D. E. In that amusing work, Burn's _History of the Fleet Marriages_, p. 77., occurs the following entry:--"The woman ran across Ludgate Hill in her shift;" to which the editor has added this note:--"The _Daily Journal_ of 8th November, 1725, mentions a similar exhibition at Ulcomb in {18} Kent. It was a vulgar error that a man was not liable to the bride's debts, if he took her in no other apparel than her shift." J. Y. Saffron Walden. * * * * * EDITIONS OF THE PRAYER-BOOK PRIOR TO 1662. (Vol. vi., pp. 435. 564.) As MR. SPARROW SIMPSON invites additions to his list from all quarters, I send him my contribution: and as I see that he has included _translations_ of our Liturgy into other languages, I do the same: 1552. Worcester. Jo. Oswen. Folio. 1560. London. Jugge and Cawood. 4to. 1565. London. Jugge and Cawood. 8vo. 1607. London. Folio. 1629. London. Folio. 1629. Cambridge. Folio. 1632. London. 4to. 1633.

I may add to them the following three: 1.--1551. Dublin, by Humfrey Powell. Folio 2.--1617(?). Dublin. Company of Stationers. 4to 3.--1637. Dublin. The _first_ of these, which is the first book printed in Ireland, is extremely rare. I believe only two copies are certainly known to exist; one of which is in the library of Trinity College, Dublin; and the other in that of Emmanuel College, Cambridge. Both are in very fine condition.
