_Door-head Inscription_ (Vol. viii., p. 454.).--A friend has kindly sent me an improved version of the inscription over the gate of the Apostolical Chancery, which, with his permission, I beg to forward to you:-- "Fide Deo, dic sæpe preces, peccare caveto, Sis humilis, pacem dilige, magna fuge, Multa audi, dic pauca, tace abdita, scito minori Parcere, majori cedere, ferre parem, Propria fac, persolve fidem, sis æquus egenis, Parta tuere, pati disce, memento mori." H. T. ELLACOMBE. _Fogie_ (Vol. viii., pp. 154. 256.).--In the citadel of Plymouth, some twenty or twenty-five years since, there was a band of old soldiers (principally men of small stature) who went by this name. They were said to be the only men acquainted with all the windings and outlets of the subterranean passages of this fortification. The cognomen "old fogie" is in this neighbourhood frequently applied to old men remarkable for shrewdness, cunning, quaintness, or eccentricity. This use of the term is evidently figurative, borrowed from its application to veteran soldiers. Cannot some of the military correspondents of "N. & Q." give the origin of the word? ISAIAH W. N. KEYS. Plymouth. _Sir W. Hewet_ (Vol. viii., p. 270.).--MR. GRIFFITH will find in Thoresby's _Ducatus Leodinensis_, p. 2. (Whittaker's edit.), a pedigree of the family of Osborne, which gives two generations previous to Edward Osborne, who married Ann Hewet, namely,-- Richard Osborne, who married Elizabeth, daughter of ---- Fyldene, by whom he had Richard, who married Jane, daughter of John Broughton of Broughton, Esq., and sister and heir to Edward and Lancelyn Broughton. Sir Edward Osborne, Knight, Citizen, and Lord Mayor of London (1582), who died in 1591, married Ann, daughter and sole heir of Sir William Hewet, Lord Mayor of London, 1559, by whom he had Sir Hewet Osborne, born 1567, died 1614. Sir Edward had a second wife, Margaret, daughter of ----, who died in 1602. There is a note at the bottom of the page, quoted from a MS. in the College of Arms, E 1. fol. 190., "That this descent was registered the 30th March, 1568, when Hewet Osborne was the age of one year and ... days."
