 CHARLES WELCH, F.S.A., 
 
 Librarian to fhc Corporation of London. 
 
 In the earliest times, most of the Wards of London consisted of 
 a soke or manor, belonging to a powerful landowner, from whom 
 the Ward took its name. Castle Baynard Ward was formerly known 
 as the Ward of Richard de Hadstock. At a later period, the Ward 
 was called after the notable building which for many centuries was 
 its pride and glory, 
 
 Glo. — " Go, Lovel, with all speed to Doctor Shaw, — 
 
 Go thou [to Catesbv] to Friar Penker ; bid them both 
 Meet me, within this hour, at Baynard's Castle," 
 
 Ric. Ill, Act 3, Si. 5. 
 
 This once eminent building stood on the north bank ot the 
 Thames, in Thames Street, and received its name from William 
 Baynard, a nobleman. Lord of Dunmow, who came over with William 
 the Conqueror, and who was its first founder. Fitzstephen, who 
 wrote in the reign of Henry II, notices it in his time as being
 
 CaBtfe QSagnarb TTari). 10 
 
 a considerable building. " In the west part of the City," says he, 
 " are two most strong castles," of which he specifies this as one. 
 And Gervase of Tilbury, a contemporary author, speaks still more 
 expressly as to its importance. "Two castles are built with walls 
 " and ramparts, whereof one is in right of possession Baynard's, the 
 " other is the Baron Montfitchet's." 
 
 The following is a concise outline of the descent of the castle, 
 and its subsequent history. Baynard, the founder, dying in the reign 
 of William Rufus, left it to his son, Geoffry, from whom it came 
 to William Bavnard, who, having forfeited his barony of Little 
 Dunmow and " honor of Baynard's Castle," both were conferred bj' 
 Henry the First on Robert Fitzrichard, the son of Gilbert, Earl 
 of Clare. From this Robert Fitzrichard, by several descents, 
 Baynard's Castle came into the possession of Robert Fitzwalter, 
 a Baron, in the reign of King John ; who, having displeased that 
 monarch, he ordered the castle to be demolished, but afterwards gave 
 him permission to re-build it. In 1303, the son of Robert Fitzwalter 
 acknowledged his service to the City of London for his castle of 
 Baynard before Sir John Blount, Mayor, and swore to be true to the 
 liberties of the Citv. The City, at the same time, recognised a 
 declaration of the rights of the same Robert Fitzwalter, who is therein 
 called " The City's Banner-bearer." Several of the Fitzwalters, after 
 this period, appear to have owneil it, till the honor of this residence 
 at length fell from the family, in a way Stow professes himself unable 
 to account for, and came into the possession of the Crown. 
 
 In 1428 Baynard's Castle was burnt: and, being re-built by 
 Humphry, Duke of Gloucester, he resided there until his attainder 
 and death in 1446. The next remarkable occupant was, as noticed 
 in the quotation above, Richard, Duke of Gloucester, afterwards 
 Richard III, who assumed the regal title there. From him it came 
 into the possession of Henry VII ; who finally re-built it, and 
 occasionally made it the scene of his festivities. From the reign of 
 
 c 2
 
 Casife (jSagnori TTftrb. U 
 
 Henry VII to that of Edward VI not much notice is taken ot" 
 Baynard's Castle. About the latter period, probably in consequence 
 of the royal grant, it appears to have been in the possession of the 
 Earls of Pembroke, and was then called "Pembroke House;" and 
 soon afterwards, viz., in 1553, the council assembled here, and pvo- 
 claimed Mary queen, in opposition to Lady Jane Grey. 
 
 The external appearance of Baynard's Castle was rather venerable 
 than grand. A circular tower bounded the south-west corner, with 
 a bell-shaped roof and three windows. Two projections had each 
 windows in two ranges: then a hexagon tower, considerably higher 
 than the roof, with three ranges of windows, some of them being 
 on each side. From that to the eastern end were five projections, 
 each containing two windows in double ranges, and terminating 
 in pointed roofs. At the eastern corner was another hexagon tower, 
 nearly similar to the former one. A large arched gateway towards 
 its east end communicated, by a small bridge and stairs, with the 
 Thames. 
 
 The interior was divided into two courtyards, each of which was 
 completely surrounded by buildings, containing the various state and 
 other apartments. To the upper stories of these the ascent was by 
 staircases, winding round circular and hexagonal towers. The south 
 side had its foundations in the river Thames. The north front faced 
 Tliames Street, from which was the principal entrance. The whole 
 structure, which, when perfect, covered a very considerable site, was 
 destroyed by the Fire of London, leaving a mere shell. Two of the 
 towers, incorporated with other buildings, remained until the early part 
 of this century, but were pulled down to make room for the buildings 
 of the Carron Iron Company. 
 
 The antiquities of the Ward of Castle Baynard are thus quaintly 
 summarised by Stow : " The ornaments of this ward be parish churches 
 " four, of old time a castle, divers noblemen's houses, halls of com- 
 " panies twain, and such others as shall be shown."

 The south-side of Thames Street formerly contained many notable 
 mansions in ancient times. At the east end stood an ancient mansion 
 called Beaumont's Inn, which belonged to that family of noblemen in 
 the 4th Edward III. Edward IV, in the 5th year of his reign, gave 
 it to his Lord Chamberlain Hastings, Master of his Mints. It after- 
 wards passed into the possession of the Earls of Huntington, and 
 was known as Huntington House. Further west, and beyond Paul's 
 Wharf, was another large house called Scrope's Inn, so named from 
 a former proprietor in the reign of Henry VI. Stow also describes 
 another great messuage in Thames Street, east of Baynard's Castle, 
 formerly belonging to the Abbey of Fiscampe, which came into 
 Edward Ill's hands after his French campaigns, and was given by 
 that monarch to Sir Simon Burleigh, K.G., and therefore called 
 Burleigh House. 
 
 Beside Baynard's Castle formerly stood another tower built by 
 Edward II. Edward III gave it to William, Duke of Hamelake, at 
 a rent of one rose yearly, to be paid for all service. This afterwards 
 became Legate's Inn, but had disappeared in Stow's time, its site 
 being occupied by wood wharves. Puddle Wharf, an ancient water- 
 gate into the Thames, is said by Stow to have been so called from 
 horses watering there, and making puddle with their trampling. In 
 Castle Lane, which has now disappeared, was a large house belonging 
 to the Priory of Oakbourne, in Wiltshire, which was the Prior's 
 residence when he staved in Lonilon. In this lane, too, was a mill or 
 mills belonging to the Templars of the New Temple, who obtained a 
 grant from King John of a site on the Fleet, near Baynard's Castle, 
 to make a mill, and the whole course of the water of the Fleet to 
 serve the same mill. The mill was removed and destroyed in the 
 year 1307, by order of Parliament, upon complaint by Henry Laire, 
 Earl of Lincoln, of " novances done to the water of the Fleet."

 Coming back to the east end of Thames Street, antl taking now the 
 north side, the first object of interest is the churcli of St. Benet, 
 over against Paul's Wharf, known also as St. Benet Hude or Hythe. 
 Here were buried Sir William Cheiny, knight, and Margaret, his 
 wife, in 144-1, Sir Gilbert Dethick, Garter King-at-Arms, and, at a 
 later date, Inigo Jones, the architect, and several high officers of the 
 neighbouring College of Arms. St. Benet's was united with St. 
 Nicolas Cole Abbey, under the Union of Benefices Act, 1S60, but 
 the churcli was not pulled down. It now belongs to a Welsh con- 
 gregation, services according to the rites of the Church of England 
 being held every Sunday. West of St. Benet's, at the south end of Addle 
 Street, stood an ancient building belonging to the Lords of Barkly, and 
 called Barkly's Inn. Then, turning to the north, is the parish church 
 of St. Andrew-in-the-Wardrobe, which still exists at the west end of 
 Queen Victoria Street. 
 
 tU (King's <Warbro6e. 
 
 Close adjoining, formerly stood the King's Great Wardrobe, 
 built by Sir John Beauchamp, Constable of Dover and Warden 
 of the Cinque Ports, who died in 1359 and was buried in St. 
 Paul's Cathedral. His executors sold the house to King Edward 
 III, to whom the parson of St. Andrew's complained that Sir 
 John had pulled down divers houses, to build in their place the 
 same house, wherethrough he was hindered of his accustomed tithes 
 paid by the tenants of old time. The King satisfied the complainant 
 by granting him forty shillings a year out of that house for ever. 
 Richard III made it his residence in the second year of his reign. 
 Secret letters and writings concerning the State were usually enrolled 
 in the King's Wardrobe, and not in the Chancery. On the east side 
 of Peter's Hill formerly stood a large and ancient house belonging to 
 the Abbey of St. Mary in York, and used as the Abbott's town house.
 
 Coeffe (J5agnarb TTarJ). u 
 
 In St. Paul's Wharf Hill, now known as Benet's Hill, on the east side, 
 stood the hall of the Woodniongers' Company, but both the Company 
 and their hall have long since disappeared. Next adjoining is Derby 
 House, now known as 
 
 ^cvaf^B Coffege. 
 
 This ancient body received its first charter of incorporation from 
 Richard III, who gave them, for the residence and assembling of the 
 heralds, Poultney's Inn, " a righte fayre and stately house," in Cold 
 Harbour. They afterwards removed to the hospital of Our Lady of 
 Rounceval at Charing Cross, and finally settled at Derby House, St. 
 Benet's Hill, granted by Queen Mary, in 1555, to Sir Gilbert Dethick, 
 Garter King-at-Arms, and to the other heralds and their successors. 
 The college has, since 1622, consisted of 13 ofiicers — three kings, 
 namely. Garter Principal, Clarencieux, and Norroy; six heralds— Lancaster, 
 Somerset, Richmond, Windsor, York, and Chester; and four pour- 
 suivants — Rouge Croix, Blue Mantle, Portcullis, and Blue Dragon. 
 These hold their places by ajjpointment of the Duke of Norfolk, as 
 Hereditary Earl Marshal. In ancient times the duties of the heralds 
 were both varied and important, and included the marshalling and 
 ordering of coronations, marriages, christenings, funerals, interviews, 
 feasts of kings and princes, cavalcades, shows, jousts, tournaments, and 
 combats before the constable and marshal. Another honorable service 
 of the officers-at-arms was the bearing of letters and messages to 
 foreign princes and persons in authority. These ofiicers were the 
 " Chivalers of Arms " or Knights Riders, the original king's messengers, 
 and gave their name to Knightrider Street. The college still retains 
 the sole right to grant arms, and preserves among its records the 
 genealogies of the nobiUty and gentry. Further north, near the south 
 chain of St. Paul's Churchyard, was the Paul Head Tavern, formerly 
 called Paul's Brewhouse. On the opposite side of the street was Paul's 
 Bakehouse. Both of these establishments were in former ilays actively 
 employed in ministering to the wants of the officials of the Cathedral.

 On the south side of Knightrider Street was Doctors' Commons, 
 which was a College of Doctors of Ci\il Law incorporated for 
 the study and practice of Civil Law. The civilians and canonists 
 were formerly lodged in a house subsequently the Queen's Head 
 Tavern in Paternoster Row, whence they removed, in Elizabeth's reign, 
 to a house purchased for them by Dr. Harvey, Dean of the Arches. 
 Here they lived in a collegiate manner and commoncd together, whence 
 the college was named Doctors' Commons ; and the doctors dined 
 together on every court day. This house was destroyed by the Great 
 Fire in 1666, when the college removed to Exeter House, Strand, till the 
 rebuilding of the edifice in Great Knightrider Street in 1672. In 
 , Doctors' Commons formerly sat the Court of Arches, the Consistory 
 Court of the Bishop of London, and the High Court of Admiralty. 
 The walls of the college hall above the wainscot were co\ered with the 
 richly emblazoned coats-of-arms of all the doctors for a centurv or two 
 past. The College was dissolved about the year 1858, and shortly 
 after the Courts which formerly sat there were removed to Westminster, 
 and the College buildings have been since pulled down.

 In Lambeth Hill, on the west side, formerly stood Blacksmiths' 
 Hall, but the Company have since disposed of its site and no longer 
 possess a hall. On the north side of Knightrider Street, and at the 
 eastern extremity of the ward, is the church of St. Mary Magdalen, 
 which was burnt down in the Great Fire and has recently been again 
 destroyed by fire. With this church was united St. Gregory-by-St. 
 Paul's, a very ancient church, which formerly stood at the south side 
 of the cathedral. Its beautiful marble font is still preserved, hut 
 bears traces of the Great Fire. The registers, both of this church and 
 of St. Mary Magdalen, which go back to an early date, very fortunately 
 escaped destruction in both the fires described above. The remains 
 of the church of St. Mary Magdalen, which had but little antiquarian
 
 Caeffe (jBognorb "Wari*. !« 
 
 interest, are about to be pulled down, the parish having been united 
 with St. Martin's, Ludgate. Adjoining the church, on the west 
 side, stood in Stew's time, a conduit or cistern of lead, castellated 
 with stone, for receipt of Thames water, conveyed at the cost of Barnard 
 Randolph, who was buried in St. Mary Magdalen's, in 1583.

 By the side of St. Mary Magdalen's church northward, runs Old 
 Change, forming the eastern boundary of the ward, and so called from 
 the King's Exchange, where bullion was minted into coin. Between 
 Knightrider Street and Carter Lane formerly lay Do Little Lane, so 
 called, says Stow, from not being inhabited by artificers or open 
 shopkeepers. Further west is Sermon Lane, a corruption for Shere 
 Moniers' Lane, according to Stow, who explains that the business of 
 the Shere Moniers was to cut or round the plates to be coined or 
 stamped into sterhng pence.

 In Knightrider Street formerly stood the College of Physicians. 
 The College was founded in 1518 by Linacre, physician to Kings 
 Henry VII and Henry VIII, who lived in Knightrider Street, and 
 there received his friends, Erasmus, Latimer and Sir Thomas Aiore. 
 Linacre was the first President of the College, and the members met 
 at his house, which he bequeathed to them ; the estate being still the 
 property of tlie College. Thence they removed to a house in Amen 
 Corner, and, after the Great Fire, a new College was erected by Sir 
 Christopher Wren, in Warwick Lane. Here they remained till 1825, 
 when they finally removed to their present abode in Trafalgar Square 
 and Pall Mall East, which was erected, from designs by Sir Robert 
 Smirke, at a cost of ^30,000.

 In the north-west corner of the Ward is Stationers' Hall, situated 
 in Stationers' Hall Court, Ludgate Hill. The Company of Stationers
 
 <Cft6ffc (jBapnarb 'XOari. 17 
 
 is one of the few London companies tiie membership of which is 
 restricted to those practising its own craft, that is, the allied trades of 
 bookselling, stationery, printing, bookbinding, print-selling and engraving. 
 The Company still continue to exercise control over the publishing 
 trade, and also engages in business, as a publishing body, in their 
 corporate capacity. They exercise these powers under a charter 
 granted to them by Charles II in 1684, and confirmed by William 
 and Mary in 1690; but they existed as a fraternity long previous to 
 the introduction of printing. They were first incorporated on the 
 4th May, 1557, by a charter of Philip and Mary, which was renewed 
 by Elizabeth in 1588. Under their charters, they were empowered 
 to search for and seize obnoxious books ; printers were compelled to 
 serve their time under a member of the Company ; and every pub- 
 ' lication, from a Bible to a ballad, was required to be " Entered at 
 " Stationers' Hall." The registers of the Stationers' Company date 
 from the beginning of Elizabeth's reign, in 1558, and form an 
 invaluable series of records, in illustration of our national literature. 
 They have been recently made accessible to literary students by the 
 admirable transcript of Professor Arber. The Company has long 
 been noted for the excellent series of almanacs which it publishes; 
 the most important of those now issued is the British Almanac and 
 Companion. Samuel Richardson, the novelist, was Master of the 
 Company in 1754, and his portrait, and those of Prior, Steele, John 
 Bunyan, Bishop Hoadley, William Bowyer, and other notable persons, 
 are preserved in the stock-room. The Company also support and 
 maintain a flourishing public school in Bolt Court, Fleet Street, which 
 accommodates upwards of 300 boys.

 The Ward of Castle Baynard is further distinguished by comprising 
 within its bounds, at the north and north-east extremity, the grand 
 historic structure of St. Paul's Cathedral, with the several notable
 
 Caeife (jBapnarb tOar'i. i« 
 
 buildings in its precincts, some of which have long since disappeared. 
 It is impossible, in this brief sketch, to do more than mention these 
 by name. They comprise : — Paul's Cross, the Bishop's Palace, with 
 the Lollard's Tower, the Chapter House and Deanery, and the 
 interesting labyrinth of courts and alleys surrounding the cathedral, 
 whose names still re-call the occupations of the text writers and 
 stationers who gained a livelihood by writing and selling various 
 service-books and catechisms for use in the cathedral. They include

 Amen Corner.

 Prior to 1700 no official calendar was made of Aldermen who became 
 Lord Mayor, so that it has been impossible, in the short time allowed for 
 the preparation of this volume, to give a full list of the Aldermen of Castle 
 Bajnard who became Chief Magistrate. In former times it was no un- 
 common thing for Aldermen to be translated from one Ward to another. 
 This fact has added greatly to the difficulty of tracing the Mayoralty of 
 many Aldermen. Why this practice obtained it is not quite known. It 
 may have been because the office of Mayor came in rotation of Wards, 
 and not, as in later times, in order of senioritv of the Aldermen, and that 
 the Alderman of the Ward whose turn it was to be Lord Mayor, not 
 being willing or able to accept the office, he obtained a substitute as it 
 were of a brother Alderman from another Ward to take his place, to save 
 himself the fine for non-acceptance of the office. During the troublous 
 reigns it was very difficult to find citizens who would serve either as 
 Alderman or as Lord Mayor, and many translations and changes between 
 Aldermen occurred to avoid the higher office. Since i/oo, however, a 
 different state of things has been in practice. Translations have become 
 quite the exception and not the rule, consequently it has been easy to 
 trace the career of an Alderman after his election. Accordingly, an 
 official list has been made of all the Aldermen Yiving in 1700, and since 
 elected, with their Wards, and the dates of their election as Sheriff and 
 as Lord Mayor. It will be a surprise to many to learn that during the 
 past and present centuries no less than ten out of the fifteen Aldermen 
 elected for the Ward of Castle Baynard have occupied the Civic Chair, 
 and that no other Ward can show a greater number of Lord Mayors 
 during the same period, whilst there are 19 Wards (excluding Bridge 
 Without) which have not had so manv.

 * Bridge Wilhout is practically the Bailiwick of Southwark. The Ward is represented only by its 
 Alderman, who used to be nominated and elected by the Court of Aldermen. In 171 1, however, an Act 
 of Commcm Council was passed whereby the \\'ard, on a vacancy arising, was to be offered to those 
 Aldermen who had passed the Chair according to seniority. By another Act of Conmion Council, p.assed 
 in 1725, the election of an Alderman of Bridge \\'ithout is vested in the Common Council. Twice, viz., in 
 1758 and 1S53, Aldermen of Caslle Baynard, after having passed llie Chair, have Iiecome .-\ldermen of 
 Bridge Without.
 
 Qtofe as fo t^e (^fiiermen. 
 
 Ir is not unreasonable to infer, from the above table, that during 
 the earlier years of the Mayoralty, Castle Baynard enjoyed the privilege 
 of having a good average number of Aldermen who served the office 
 of Lord Mayor : although, for reasons already given, it has not been 
 possible to show a complete list of such Alderman jirior to 1700. 
 
 The present year is the 703rd of the Mayoralty of the City of 
 London. Allowing for those who served in the office for more than 
 one year, and also for such as may have died during their Mayoralty 
 (when a second appointment in the same year had to be made), 
 Mr. Alderman Evans is the 590th citizen who has filled the office. 
 Long may the Civic Chair of the ancient City of London find a 
 worthy occupant, and may Castle Baynard ever, as during the present 
 year, have an Alderman " ready, aye, ready," to become Lord 
 Mayor 1

 It would be interesting if a complete list of Lord Mayors having 
 a Welsh lineage could be given here. The result of a search and 
 of a somewhat careful enquiry shows, however, that this cannot be 
 done. It is not improbable that several of those who filled the Civic 
 Chair had a Welsh ancestry, but if so, their nationality had become 
 changed from the fact that their more immediate ancestors had left the 
 Principality and permanently taken up their abode in England and so 
 abandoned their Welsh domicile. There appear to be only three who, 
 having themselves come from Wales to seek their fortune in London, 
 became Lord Mayor. These are : — 
 
 Sir THOMAS EXMEWE ; Goldsmith. 
 
 Lord Mayor 15 17. Alderman of Cripplegate, who came 
 from Flintshire. 
 
 Sir JAMES YARDFORD ; Mercer. 
 
 Lord Mayor 1579. Alderman of Candlewick, who came 
 from Kidwylly. Carmarthenshire. 
 Right Hox. DAVID EVANS, F.R.G.S. ; Haberdasher. 
 
 Lord Mayor 1891. Alderman of Castle Baynard, who 
 
 was born at Llantrisant, Glamorganshire ; son of Thomas 
 
 Evans, of Glan Muchudd, Llantrisant. 
 
 The following are instances of Lord Mayors of Welsh descent 
 
 whose parents or grandparents had left the Principality and settled in 
 
 England before they took office : — 
 
 Sir WILLIAM HUMPHREYS, Bart.; Ironmonger. 
 
 Lord Mayor 17 14 (a Londoner). Grandson of William 
 ap Humphrey of Penrhin, Montgomeryshire. Entertained 
 King George I, with the Prince and Princess of Wales, at his 
 Mayoralty Dinner at Guildhall. M.P. for Marlborough.

 It may be added that Rowland Haylin, who was Sheriff in 1624, 
 caused the Bible to be translated into Welsh, so that there is reason 
 to suppose that he may have been of Welsh descent. 
 
 In this connection it is interesting to note that the British and 
 Foreign Bible Society, whose habitat is in Castle Baynard W^ard, and 
 whose output for 1890 exceeded 850,000 Bibles, and 1,346,000 New 
 Testaments, besides upwards of 1,728,000 separate books or portions of 
 Scripture, and whose income for the year was ^'217,148, owes its 
 origin to Mary Jones, a little Welsh maid. Her memory is kept green in 
 the Library of the Society by the exhibition of her Bible, which bears 
 this inscription : — 
 
 " The Bible of Mary Jones, of Bryncrug, whose journey to the Rev. Thomas 
 " Charles, in Bala, for the purchase of it in 1800, led to the foundation of the 
 " Bible Society in 1804."

 A very interesting and unique Trust for the benefit of the Aldermen 
 of Castle Baynard who should become Lord Mayor was created in 
 1865 by Colonel Samuel Wilson, late an esteemed Alderman of the 
 Ward, who served the office of Lord Mayor with remarkable brilliancy 
 and success. The late Samuel Wilson and his family were for many 
 years commercially connected with the City of London, and in the year 
 1833 he was elected Alderman of the Ward of Castle Baynard. He 
 was subsequently unanimously elected by the Livery in Common Hall 
 to fill the office of Sheriff of London and Middlesex, and in the year 
 1838 he served the office of Lord Mayor. At the conclusion of his 
 year of office as Lord Mayor he was presented by the public with 
 plate of the value of ^1,500 in testimony of their estimation of the 
 manner in which he had maintained the dignity, hospitality, and 
 efficiency of his high office. The worthy Alderman bequeathed the 
 whole of this plate upon Trust for the use of the Lord Mayor for the 
 time being at the Mansion House. In the Trust Deed executed by him 
 in 1865, he expressed himself as having "a deep-rooted attachment to 
 " the free institutions of the ancient City of London, and an affectionate 
 " regard for his brothers of the Court of Aldermen, for the Members 
 " and Officers of the Corporation, and for the Ward of Castle Baynard, 
 " after an intimate, friendly, and official connection existing between 
 " them for more than 34 years, and being desirous to leave behind him 
 " an enduring memorial of those feelings," he determined to invest the 
 sum of ^'4,000 in the names of Trustees, whom he appointed, to be
 
 (^fbcrmon IQJtfeon'e (jBequeef. 28 
 
 the two senior Aldermen, the Recorder, and the City Chamberlain, 
 for the time being. The income of" this fund was directed by the 
 worthy Alderman to be applied in the manner more particularly stated 
 by him, but as to a part of it with directions that a sum of .:£,'ioo 
 should be set aside by the Trustees anil held by tliem upon the Trust 
 following : — 
 
 " And as to the sum of ;£ioo hereinbefore directed to be set aside, the same 
 " shall be invested by the Trustees until the Alderman of Casde Baynard Ward 
 " shall be elected Lord Mayor of London, and when and so often as such event 
 " shall happen the said sum shall be applied in the purchase of a ring to be pre- 
 " sented by the Chamberlain of the said City of London for the time being in the 
 " Guildhall of the said City to the said Lord Mayor elect immediately after he 
 '* shall have taken the usual oaths of office." 
 
 Mr. Alderman David Evans, the [jresent Lord Mayor, is the first 
 recipient of this ring, he being the first Alderman of the Ward of 
 Castle Baynard who has become entitled thereto under the terms of 
 the Trust. The ring was presented to him by the Chamberlain, in 
 Common Hall on Saturday, the 7th November, 1891. It is of i8-carat 
 gold, with a superb diamond in the centre. The design represents the 
 City dragons modelled in full relief, holding in their claws and teeth 
 the diamond. Resting upon the backs of the dragons, and between 
 their wings, are miniature coats of arms, one of the City of London, 
 and the other of the Lord Mayor, enamelled in heraldic colours. 
 Inside the ring is inscribed, " Presented to David Evans, Lord Mayor 
 of London, 1891, under Alderman Samuel Wilson's Trust,"

 " In the Lord Mayor's ward, Castle Baynard, much had been done to show him 
 honour. Last month, at a meeting of the inhabitants, a committee was appointed to 
 collect funds for decorating the chief streets in the ward through which the procession 
 would pass— Upper Thames Street, Queen Victoria Street, St. Paul's Churchyard, and 
 Ludgate Hill. A sufficient response was made to the appeal, and Messrs. Pain and Son, 
 the firework makers, undertook to provide what was needed. In the result a large 
 number of banners were put up, all bearing appropriate inscriptions. Among these were 
 the following: — At St. Peter's Hill, where the procession entered the ward, 'Castle 
 Baynard greets you ' ; at the corner of Old Change, ' The Ward wishes its Alderman 
 happiness and prosperity ' ; on Ludgate Hill, at the boundary of the ward, ' Au revoir.' 
 Queen Victoria Street was crossed by strings of streamers ; Venetian masts and festoons 
 of flowers lined each side, and some of the houses hung out flags. The sight in St. Paul's 
 Churchyard must have taken not a few by surprise, the begrimed walls being relieved at 
 intervals round the railings by Venetian masts, festoons of flowers, and trophies of flags 
 and shields. But the most important part of the work has yet to be mentioned. South 
 of the statue of Queen Anne was a large model of Baynard Castle, from which the name 
 of the ward is taken. Built by one of William the Conqueror's companions, this fortress, 
 after more than one change of ownership, became a sort of Royal Palace, and many 
 scenes of historic interest were enacted within its walls. Here, for example, the Duke of 
 Buckingham off'ered the Crown to Gloucester — an incident which Shakespere has faith- 
 fully followed in Richard III.^ and here Henry VII received many of his ambassadors. 
 It went down in the Great Fire, its last tenant being the Countess of Pembroke. The 
 model had over its portcullis the arms and crest of the Lord Mayor, with the arms of 
 the two corporations within the ward— the Dean and Chapter of St. Paul's and Herald's 
 College — on either side. The shield of the Corporation of the City of London appeared 
 on the east, and those of the two senior members of the Court of Common Council for 
 the ward, Mr. Deputy Brown and Mr. Edgar F. Jenkins, on the west. The model was 
 designed chiefly from a drawing in the possession of Mr. Jenkins, at whose suggestion it 
 is understood to have been put up. On reaching the spot yesterday the Lord Mayor 
 stopped for a few seconds to receive the following address " : — 
 \^Here followed the address and reply. '\

 " Castle Baynard Ward, through which the procession passed, was nicely 
 decorated, under the direction of the Committee appointed at a meeting of the 
 inhabitants, to collect funds for the purpose. A liberal response was made to the 
 appeal of the Committee, and Messrs. Pain and Sons, the well-known pyrotechnists, 
 were entrusted with the work of carrying out the decorations, no expense being 
 spared in this effort to do honour to the Lord Mayor. At St. Peter's Hill, where 
 the Lord Mayor and his procession first entered the Ward, was a pretty design, with 
 the words 'Castle Baynard greets you.' After leaving Upper Thames Street, the 
 procession entered the lower half of Queen Victoria Street, where large crowds had 
 for some hours previously been standing awaiting its appearance. Each side of the 
 street was lined with Venetian masts, from which hung festoons of flowers. Strings 
 of streamers crossed the street, and nearly every business establishment hung out 
 flags and banners. Several mottoes in Welsh were displayed, and one large cloth 
 hanging across the street brought Ijoldly into view the inscription, ' Welcome to our 
 ' Alderman and Lord Mayor.' The shop windows were filled with spectators, and a 
 large platform erected in front of St. Anne's Church was reserved for the children 
 of Castle Baynard, Queenhithe, and Vintry Ward Schools. Leaving Victoria Street 
 at the junction with Cannon Street, the procession turned into the latter thorough- 
 fare, where the footpaths were lined with people. Cannon Street was gaily bedecked 
 with bunting, and at Old Change there was displayed a scarlet cloth, containing in 
 large letters the sentiment, ' The Ward wishes its Alderman happiness and prosperity.' 
 The decorations in St. Paul's Churchyard were very effective. At intervals all round 
 the churchyard Venetian masts were placed, bearing trophies of flags and shields, 
 whilst from mast to mast stretched festoons of flowers. P'lags and banners were displayed 
 in profusion from the windows of the large business establishments in the Churchyard,
 
 (Srfrocf from " (Evening Bfanliarb.** 38 
 
 which was filled with ])C()plc, the steps of St. Paul's Cathedral forming a most 
 convenient standpoint. Here, again, the handiwork of the Committee of Castle 
 Baynard was seen to great advantage. Acting on tlie suggestion of Mr. Edgar I". 
 Jenkins, one of the senior representatives of the Ward of Castle Baynard, the 
 Committee decided to erect a large model of the old Baynard Castle, from which 
 the Ward takes its name. The model, e.vcellently designed, occupied a prominent 
 position close to Queen Anne's statue. Over the portcullis appeared the .\rms and 
 Crest of the Lord Mayor, flanked on either side by tlie Arms of the two Corporations 
 within the Ward, namely, those of the Dean and Chapter of St. Paul's and of the 
 Herald's College. The Shield of the Corporation of the City of London is fixed 
 on the east side of the model, whilst those of Mr. Deputy Brown and Mr. Edgar F. 
 Jenkins, as the two senior members of the Ward, are placed on the west side. The 
 members of the Common Council for the ^Vard, wearing their robes, assembled 
 within the model castle, and when the procession reached this point there was a 
 temporary halt, made for the purpose of enabling Mr. Anderson, on behalf of the 
 deputation representing the inhabitants of the Ward, to present the Lord Mayor 
 with the appended Address."
