It will be observed that these six names correspond with the six names in Shakspeare, except that Shakspeare, following some ignorant transcriber, substitutes _Chetas_ for _Scaean_. The work, consisting of forty-four short chapters, which has come down to us under the title of _De Excidio Trojae Historia_, by Dares Phrygius, is a pseudonymous production, which cannot be placed earlier than the fifth or sixth century. See the preface to the edition of Dederick, Bonnae, 1835; or the article "Dares," by Dr. Schmitz, in Dr. Smith's _Dictionary of Greek and Roman Biography_. Other writers spoke of _four_ gates of Troy. (See Heyne, _Exc._ XIV. _ad AEn._ II.) L. _Milton's Widow_ (Vol. vii., p. 596.; Vol. viii., pp. 12. 134. 200.).--Having noticed several Queries and Replies in your pages concerning the family of the poet Milton's third wife, I beg to give the following extracts from a pamphlet printed by Pullan of Chester so recently as 1851, entitled _Historical Facts connected with Nantwich and its Neighbourhood_: "In that same year (1662), Milton was received at _Stoke Hall as the husband of Elizabeth Minshull_, _the grand-daughter of Geoffrey Minshull_."--P. 50. "Not far from the Hall, where Milton was _once a welcome visitor_, stands the Yew Tree House." There can be little doubt the author of the pamphlet referred to derived the information on which those statements were made from an _authentic source_; and if so, it seems pretty clear, the _Elizabeth Minshull_ whom Milton married was _grand-daughter of Geoffrey Minshull of Stoke Hall_. T. P. L. Manchester. _Boom_ (Vol. vii., p. 620.; Vol. viii., p. 183.).--The Bittern is not an uncommon bird in some parts of Wales, where it is very expressively called _Aderyn-y-Bwn_ (the Boom-bird), or _Bwmp-y-Gors_ (Boom of the Fen): the _w_ is pronounced as double _o_. W. R. D. S. "_Nugget_" _not an American Term_ (Vol. vii. _passim_).--It is a mistake in our correspondent to suppose that the word "nugget" was used in California by American "diggers" to denominate a lump of gold. That word was never heard of in this country until after the discoveries in Australia. It is not used now in California, "lump" is the proper term; and when a miner accumulates a quantity, he boasts of his "pile," or rejoices in the possession of a "pocket full of rocks." [Old English W]. Philadelphia. _Soke Mill_ (Vol. viii., p. 272.).--Suit is not now enforced to the King's Mills in the manor of Wrexham, in the county of Denbigh, but the lessee of the manorial rights of the crown receives a payment at the rate of threepence per bushel for all the malt ground in hand-mills within the limits of the manor. TAFFY. _Binometrical Verse_ (Vol. viii., p. 292.).--This verse appeared in the _Athenaeum_ (Sept. 2, 1848, No. 1088, p. 883.), given by one correspondent as having been previously forwarded by another; but it does not appear to have been previously published.
