Notices to Correspondents.
R. C. P. "Thal," "Theam," "Thealonia," _in the Charter referred to, are
certain rights of toll, of which the peculiarities will be found in any Law
Dictionary; and "Infangethe" was the privilege of judging any thief within
the fee._
S. P. Q. R. _We must refer this correspondent also to a Law Dictionary for
a full explanation of the terms Sergeant and Sergeantcy. A Deed_ Poll _is
plain at the top, and is so called to distinguish it from a Deed_ Indented,
_which is cut in and out at the top._
TYRO. _The work quoted as_ Gammer Gurton _in the_ Arundines Cami, _is the
collection of_ Nursery Rhymes _first formed by Ritson, and of which an
enlarged edition was published by Triphook in 1810, under the title of_
Gammer Gurton's Garland, _or_ The Nursery Parnassus, &c.
R. C. _The music, &c. of_ "The Roast Beef of England," "Britons Strike
Home," _and_ "The Grenadier's March," _will be found in Mr. Chappell's_
Collection of National English Airs. _Webbe's Glee_, "Hail Star of
Brunswick," _the words of which are by Young, may doubtless be got at
Cramer's. We cannot point out a collection containing the words and music
of_ "Croppies lie down."
K. R. H. M. _All received._
A. E. B. _is thanked for his suggested monogram, which shall not be lost
sight of: also for his friendly criticism._
HERMES. _We have received a packet from Holland for our correspondent. Will
he inform us how it may be forwarded to him?_
M. or N. _The meaning of these initials in our_ Catechism _and_ Form of
Matrimony _is still involved in great obscurity. See_ "NOTES AND QUERIES,"
Vol. i., pp. 415. 476.; Vol. ii., p. 61.
DE NAVORSCHER. _Mr. Nult is the London Agent for the supply of our Dutch
ally, the yearly subscription to which is about Ten Shillings._
"Conder on Provincial Coins" _has been reported to the Publisher. Will the
person who wants this book send his address?_
