_The Lass of Richmond Hill._--I should be much obliged by being informed who wrote the _words_ of the above song, and when, if it was produced originally at some place of public entertainment. The Rev. Thomas Maurice, in his elegant poem on Richmond Hill, has considered it to have been written upon a Miss Crop, who committed suicide on that spot, April 23rd, 1782; but he was evidently misinformed, as it appeared some few years later, and had no reference to that event. I have heard it attributed to Leonard Mac Nally, a writer of some dramatic pieces, but on no certain grounds; and it may have been a Vauxhall song about the year 1788. The music was by James Hook, the father of Theodore Hook. QUÆRO. _Curfew._--In what towns or villages in England is the old custom of ringing the curfew still retained? NABOC. _Alumni of Oxford, Cambridge, and Winchester._--Are the alumni of the various colleges of Oxford, Cambridge, and Winchester, published from an early period, and the various preferments they held, similar to the one published at Eton. J.R. Fox. _St. Leger's Life of Archbishop Walsh._--In Doctor Oliver's _History of the Jesuits_, it is stated that William St. Leger, an Irish member of that Society, wrote the _Life of Thomas Walsh, Archbishop of Cashel_, in Ireland, published in 4to. at Antwerp in 1655. Can any of your numerous readers inform me if a copy of this work is to be found in the British Museum, or any other public library, and something of its contents? J.W.H. {104} _Query put to a Pope._-- "Sancte Pater! scire vellem Si Papatus mutat pellem?" I have been told that these lines were addressed to one of the popes, whose life, before his elevation to the see of St. Peter, had been passed in excesses but little suited to the clerical profession. They were addressed to him _orally_, by one of his former associates, who met and stopped him while on his way to or from some high festival of the Church, and who plucked aside, as he spoke, the gorgeous robes in which his quondam fellow-reveller was dressed. The reply of the pope was prompt, and, like the question, in a rhyming Latin couplet. I wish, if possible, to discover, the name of the pope;--the terms of his reply;--the name of the bold man who "_put him to the question_;"--by what writer the anecdote is recorded, or on what authority it rests. C. FORBES. Temple. _The Carpenter's Maggot._--I have in my possession a MS. tune called the "Carpenter's Maggot," which, until within the last few years, was played (I know for nearly a century) at the annual dinner of the Livery of the Carpenters' Company. Can any of your readers inform me where the original is to be found, and also the origin of the word "Maggot" as applied to a tune? F.T.P. _Lord Delamere._--Can any of your readers give me the words of a song called "Lord Delamere," beginning: "I wonder very much that our sovereign king, So many large taxes upon this land should bring."
