_The Camera Lucida._--I should feel much obliged to any reader of "N. & Q." who would be kind enough to answer the following questions, and refer me to any work treating of the handling and management of the Camera Lucida. I have one made by King of Bristol, and purchased about thirty years ago: it draws out, like a telescope, in three pieces, each six inches long; and at full length will give a picture of the dimensions of twenty inches by twelve. The upper piece is marked from above downwards, thus: at two inches below the lens, "2;" at an inch below that point, "3;" at half an inch lower, "4;" at half an inch lower still, "5;" half an inch below the point "5," a "7" is marked; and half an inch below the "7," there is a "10;" at seven-eighths below this last, "D" is marked. What reference have these nicely graduated points to the distance of an object from the instrument? Do the figures merely determine the size of the picture to be taken? How is one to be guided in their use and application to practice? CARET. _Francis Moore._--Francis Moore was born at Bakewell about the year 1592, and was Proctor of Lichfield Cathedral at the time of the Great Rebellion. I am anxious to know who were his parents, and what their place of abode. EDWARD PEACOCK. Bottesford Moors, Kirton-in-Lindsey. _Waugh, Bishop of Carlisle._--What were the family arms of Dr. John Waugh, Bishop of Carlisle, who died October 29, 1734? Was he of a Scotch family, and are any of his descendants now living? RUFUS. _Palace at Enfield._--We read that there was formerly a royal palace at Enfield in Middlesex, ten miles north from London; and one room still {272} remains in its original state. Can you, or any of your subscribers, inform me whereabouts in the town it is situated? Also, the date of erection of the church? HAZELWOOD. _"Solamen miseris," &c._--Please to state in what author is the following line? No one knows. "Solamen miseris socios habuisse doloris." A CONSTANT READER. _Soke Mills._--Correspondents are requested to communicate the names of "Soke" or Manorial Mills, to which the suit is still enforced. S. M. _Second Wife of Mallet._--The second wife of Mallet was Lucy Elstob, a Yorkshire lady, daughter of a steward of the Earl of Carlisle. Can any of your readers inform me at what place in Yorkshire her father resided, and where the marriage with Mallet in 1742 took place? She survived her husband, and lived to the age of eighty years. Where did she die, and what family did Mallet leave by his two wives? F. Leamington. * * * * * Minor Queries with Answers. _Books burned by the Common Hangman._-- "Historia Anglo-Scotica: or an Impartial History of all that happen'd between the kings and kingdoms of England and Scotland from the beginning of the Reign of _William the Conqueror_ to the Reign of Queen Elizabeth, &c., by James Drake, M.D., 8vo., London, 1703."
