B. H. C. As B. H. C. could only find seven places in Cumberland ending in _-by_, I take the liberty of sending him a few additional names. Writing from memory, I may very possibly have omitted many more: Aglionby. | Maughanby. Allonby. | Melmerby. Alwardby. | Moresby. Arcleby. | Motherby. Birkby. | Netherby. Botcherby. | Ormesby. Corby. | Ousby. Crosby. | Outerby. Cross Cannonby. | Parsonby. Dovenby. | Ponsonby. Etterby. | Rickerby. Flimby. | Scaleby. Gamelsby. | Scotby. Glassonby. | Sowerby. Harby. | Tarraby. Harraby. | Thursby. Ireby. | Uckmanby. Johnby. | Uprightby, pronounced Langwathby. | Heaverby. Lazonby. | Many names of places in Cumberland commence with _Cum_, as our Cumbrian bard has it: "We've Cumwhitton, Cumwhinton, Cumranton, Cumrangen, Cumrew, and Cumcatch; Wi' mony mair Cums i' the county, But nane wi' Cumdivock can match." From whence is derived the prefix _Cum_? JOHN O' THE FORD. Malta. * * * * * NEWSPAPER FOLK LORE. (Vol. vi., pp. 221. 338. 466.; Vol. ix., pp. 29. 84. 276)
