The late Mr. Thomas Moon was an eminent merchant of Leeds, Yorkshire, and the writer has always understood that the ring referred to is one of three or half-a-dozen, which were made subsequently to Nelson's death, the metal (blackish in appearance) forming the basso-relievo set in them, being in reality portions of the ball which gave the late lamented and immortal admiral his fatal wound at Trafalgar. Can any of your readers furnish me with the means of authenticating this supposition? likewise I should be glad to know if other similar rings are at present in existence, and by whom owned. R. NICHOLS. Pelsall, Staffordshire. _Books Wanted._-- _Life of Thomas Bonnell, Mayor of Norwich_, published by Curl. Samuel Hayne, _Abstract of the Statutes relating to Aliens trading_, 1690.[1] Lalley's _Churches and Chapels in London_. Can any of your readers tell me where I shall find these books?

(_Athenæ._) Who was the Lady Baker's first husband? Who was George Gifford? Was she a Roman Catholic previous to her second marriage? W. S. _Jeremy Taylor and Christopher Lord Hatton._--Bishop Jeremy Taylor, in his dedication of the _Great Exemplar_ to Christopher Lord Hatton, entreats his lordship to "account him in the number of his relatives." Was Jeremy Taylor in any way connected with Lord Hatton by marriage? His first wife was a Mrs. Joanna Bridges of Mandinam, in the parish of Languedor, co. Carmarthen, and supposed to be a natural daughter of Charles I., to whom she bore a striking resemblance.
