¦ _ YALE UNIVERSITY LIBRARY — K rp i .j FF EDITED BY H- HENRY W. ALDRE:D. iBi,COLDII ARBOUR LANE, CAMBERWELL, S.E. This Work consists of ail original mailer not hitherto published, comprising a very valuable collection of ancient and modem deeds, wills, court rolls, rent rolls, registers, gravestones, and monumental inscriptions, plans, tracings, pedigrees (compiled by the Editor), biographical notices (contributed by recognised literary men), entries from bibles, copies of old family papers, letters of celebrated Suffolk personages, collated from the private collection, of the Editor, relating to the County, LONDON :~ ELLIOT STOCK, Paternoster Row. Suffolk RecopcljS, , Collected from the Collection of Deeds, Wills, Pedigrees, Abstracts of Title, Court and Kent Rolls, &c, of, and edited by, HENRY W. ALDRED. sfQUFFOLR, as one of the largest English Shires and rifej> the most easterly one in England, affords many rare opportunities for a still further work towards the general history. The county has held its own in the many vicissitudes which have happened in the current of time, and still is one of vast importance in the political and commercial worlds. In a work of this description, to dwell at any great length on its situation, soil, navigable and other qualities, would only be a mere repetition of what has been so many times before written, and the reader is referred to Gazetteers Topographical and other works relating to the county for these particulars. The introduction of railways has had a great hand in the present prosperity of Suffolk. The magnitude of the county can be gathered from the following quotations :— It contains about 1,002,240 acres, or 1,515 square miles, and 949,825 acres divided into 21 Hundreds; the greatest length through the county is about 70 miles, and the greatest breadth about 52 miles. The many picturesque scats of noblemen and gentry prove the advantages . Suffolk possesses, and throughout the work wiil be found the various references to localities and families. The Records of Suffolk are numerous and valuable in proving genealogy and topography, and the present work-, although not an exhaustive one on the whole county, will be found of great value in elucidating the descent of families and property, and discloses much not hitherto written on the county history. The subscribers are indebted to the dis interested services of Mr. Henry William Aldred, of Cambetwcll, for the very valuable collection of Suffolk MSS., collected by him at great labour, time and expense, from no other reason than to preserve from oblivion many interesting particulars of the county history in days gone by. This collection is given for printing without fee or reward in these pages, and under the editorship of the collector. 2 suffolk records. Fac Simile Copy of an Old Paper Writing.

To use of Chris ian and Iuchara Colville and the heirs of the said Richard, reserving o the Lord and his heirs all large trees (grossis growing pod the said lands, and all conies and other beasts of aacn in and upon the said lauds for ever (sub. diet.

Wh? am°ngSt 0ther ,ands in Farnham stood a m.tedto one tenement called Hulverhouse, with the appurtenances m f arnham." Also to Woodlover Hill and Walks Convcyer' &c' This estate abu«ed o£ Farnham, TJcrcTO a common of pasture in Farnham, as appear" t>\ the Register Book in page 205 under title " Tohn i numj.son, where it is said that he held freely one piece SUFFOLK RECORDS. 27 of pasture called Langewade ponds lying between the common of pasture of Farnham, then of Sir Plenry Glemham on the part of the South, and the lands of thc said Sir Henry on thc part of the North and West, and thc com mon way from Langewade Bridge toFarnham Street on the part of thc East. This common of pasture probably meant Farnham Walks, for observe, though it belonged to Sir Plenry Glemham, yet there was common of pasture over it and probably in the Lord of Benhall Manor. Mr. Long afterwards had Sir Henry's estate in Farnham. A water mill was mentioned as standing upon the river of the Lord with 4 perches of land belonging to it, It was once copyhold, and the farm opposite was called Knight's Tenement at the Mill, for in Queen Elizabeth's reign thc Estate belonged to Robert Knight. The 4 perches were afterwards merged in the fee of the Manor, in thc time of the Dukes, and then sold. It afterwards belonged to Mr. Kilderbee, and was the small piece on the Benhall side of the river, where the trees were. For this mill, vid. Register Book, page 158, title Aldrich. There are in Farnham man)' lands both free and copy holden of the Manor of Benhall. (Plomcsgatc Mill was held of the Manor of Benale by John Thompson — see Register Book, fo. 51.) The jurisdiction of the Court Baron (which cannot subsist ¦ without freehold tenants) extends over Farnham, as appears from an extract, Anno 5th Edward VI., in the beginning of the Register Book, in the case of Robert Cowper, of Farnham. Besides the jurisdiction of the Leet extended over it for the usage was to summon three juries to thc Leet ; one for Benhall end, one for Kelton end, and one for Farnham end, which last consisted of the inhabitants of Farnham. As to the warren of the Lords in Benhall and Farnham, and free fishing in the river in the extent before mentioned, the grant of the Manor was from thc Crown. By it Free Warren in Farnham was supposed to be granted, as well as free fishery in the river, and by such grants particular privi leges would pass to the grantee, such as a liberty of sporting upon another man's soil, &c. (Vid. Black, 2 vol., p. 38.) The above evidences shew thc right of the Lord in sending his gamekeeper over Farnham Walks, and the right of fishing in the river, anil which, with the customaiy usage and the common acceptation, may be sufficient to support both as against any other lord of a manor. None of thc grants from thc Crown described the Free Warren, which had been from time immemorial attached to this Manor, as appeared by the Ancient Court Rolls and other documents, and by which it is evidenced that, in K '¦£¦ » o.

Usual covenant to surrender copyholds. The family of Haggitt, Hacket, Hackluyts, &c, is of considerable antiquity, for we find our " Hagets," " Hakets," or " Hackluyts," settled in Yorkshire, Shrop shire, Herefordshire, &c, early in the twelfth century, where they held land, as proved by various records. Surnames, it is stated, were introduced into England by the Normans, and adopted by the nobility, about 1100; but the Saxons did not adopt surnames until about some two centuries later. Hackluyt is clearly of Norman origin, and appears, from the " Pari. Writs," "Hundred Rolls," "Valor Eccles.," &c, to have been spelled in various forms, and reconciled with " PIaket,"-the latter deduced from " Haklet," (the Anglicised form for Hackluet," " Hackluyt," &c.), by the elimination of the " 1." The use of the fleur-de-lis (which was the national emblem of France until 1789), is a strong reason for supposing the family were of Norman extraction. " Haket " and " Plaget " are practically the same, the consonants "k" and "g" being varied by a harsh, and soft sound of the name, probably caused through the different dialects used. We find these latter names spelled in various forms, such as " Hachet," " Hachit," "Hacket," " Hackett(e)," " Hageth," " Haggatt(e)," " Haggett," " Haggitt," " Haghet, ' " Haggot," " Hikat," " Hakeete," " Haket, ' " Hakkat," " Hakket," " Heygate, ' &c. Bardsley says "Hay'' is but a hedge, and shows how in the " Hund. Rolls," the name is spelled "Hagh," "Ha," " Pley," &c, and thus we get " Plaghet," " Haget, ' and " Heygate." " The " Harl MSS." for Essex, Anno, 1558, Lond. Anno., 1634, and Suffolk Annos., 1561 and 1612, Calendar of Procdgs., Eliz., and Hist. MSS., prove there is no difference between " Highatte," " Pliegattc," " Higatte," " Heygate," " Hygatte," &c. Lower, in his " Patronymica Brittanica,' says, " Hay, a Sax. Haeg, Fr. Plaie, a hedge, and that which it encloses." And according to the " Polychronicon Ranulphi Idigden, &c, Glossary Vol. 9," Hegge (vb) L Munire is given as to fence about, hedge in. 01 Family of Haggett.

Archd. Hamilton, - have had it measur'd and it contains 3a. 3. 24., including the part where the trees grow, I have set the value thereof exclusive of trees at £3 joer ann. of wh. of 30 yrs. purchase is £90. I have also had the trees and wood valued and they amount to £52 7 o, but I think that the person who made this valuation has taken down bushes too much, and therefore set the land and woods at ^140. I appre hend that Mr. Kilderbee will soon send over the deeds of conveyance and fine for execution to Mr. Heigham with the purchase mone)-'. I am not quite certain whether I can be able to wait upon you at Fornham before you set off for Yorkshire, if not will remit to you the dft. desired. My duty waits upon Mrs. Kent. I am Sir, Your much obligd. & most obedt. servt. W. Kirby. P.S. — You will be so good as to inform me of your appro bation of the value that the conveyance may be completed. . p --* SUFFOLK RECORDS. I53 The ALURED or ALDRED FAMILY. Origin of Name and Notes. The family of Aldred has long been connected with the counties of Suffolk and Lancashire, . where the family originally settled, the reason for that assumption is because Mr. Pink in his article in the "Yorkshire Genealogist," gives his common ancestor as Richard Alured, of Tannington, Suffolk, and even earlier mention is made of the family in that county [see page 51], and in the Aldreds of Yorkshire, given hereafter, the common ancestor Jeremiah Aldred is described as of Monton, near Eccles, Lancashire, and the family settled in that county previous to that period. The Yorkshire " Alureds " and " Aldreds " arc therefore found migrating respectively from Suffolk and Lancashire. In dealing with the origin of the name — an Anglo-Saxon christian one — "Bardslcy" will be first quoted, and then our own comments are given for what they are worth. Bardsley says: — "That the peculiar feature of the majority of "names that survived the Norman conquest, and which to a certain "extent maintained a hold, is that (save in a few instances) they did not "attach to themselves, either filial, or pet desinences. If they have "come down to us as surnames, they are found in their simple " unaltered dress; thus taking • Alfred ' as an example, we see in our "directories 'Alfred,' ' Alured,' or 'Allured ' to be the only patronymics "that have been handed down to us. Latinized as ''Aluredus,' it •' figures in Doomsday book. The hundred rolls later on registers an " Alured Ape, and the surname appears in the parliamentary writs in "the case of William Alured, It is hard to separate our 'Aldreds' "from 'Allureds.' The usually entered forms are 'Richard Aired,' "'Hugh Aldred,' or 'Aldred fil Roger.' Besides 'Aldred' there is "'Alderson' which may be but 'Aldredson." The variations in which the modern surname " Aldred " is found to have been originally spelled and reconciled by authorities of the highest repute to refer to the same per- t sonages, may, it is thought, be further commented on. For example, in taking the name " /Etheldred," who, as historians tell us, is the same personage as " Ailred " or "Ealred.' The diphthong "as" in " /Etheldred " be coming separated as "A" and " E," apart from each other, we get "Atheldred," "Athelred," " Etheldred," " Ethelred " and by the elimination of "the" produces " Aldred," " Aired," " Eldred," and " Elred," and by the elimination of the " i " in " Ailred, and the first letter "e" in "Ealred," we get in each instance "Aired.' Again in taking " Alredus," " Alfredus," "Elfredus" "Alfred," " Elfred," "Aluredus," and "Alured" the 154 SUFFOLK RECORDS. "an" diphthong is found to have become separated and the name commenced with either " A " or " E," thus from these emanate undoubtedly the names " Aired," " Alfred " and " Elfred. As an example that "Alured" is the same as "Aleured," "Aired," and " Alered, and that "Aired" with variations is "Aldred," the following .instances are noted : — "Alured " versus "Aired." In Foster's visitation of Yorkshire, the common ancestor " Roger Alured, in the Alured pedigree (as also set out in Mr. Pink's able article) is also written " Aired," which latter mode of spelling is simply derived by the elimination of the "u" in "Alured." In the same pedigree, the surnames of the sons of Henry "Alured," alias "Aired," are entered in the registers of the parish of Sculcoates, Hull, (recording their respective baptisms) as follow, "Aired," "Alured," "Aleured," and "Alered," which confirm the before visitation as being children of the same parent, and other instances can be quoted shewing that the names are practically the same, and that the name " Aired " is derived from " Alured," " Aleured," and " Alered," by the elimination of the " u," "en," and "e" in each name. Then as to the name " Alread " (another way of spelling " Aired "), it is proposed to shew that it is the same as " Aldred ' and in support is the following two instances. (i) In the York marriage licenses is recorded as follows : — " 1603, Henry ' Alread,' of St. Peter's, Nottingham, and Ann ' Grinder,' Barnetsby. To marry at either." (2) In the Public Record Office, Fetter Lane, London ; Chancery bills and answers — James 1, A. 11, No. 9, Aldred versus Johnson, is extracted the following : — " 1607, Henry 'Aldred,' of Colewick, Notts., Gent., and Ann, his wife (daughter of Edmond 'Grynder,' Gent., who died possessed of land in Bury St. Edmunds, Suffolk.") It will be perceived that in each instance the wife's maiden surname is the same, although varied by ' i ' for ' y,' also the address of ' Henry' and the dates, because, if Henry married in 1603, Ann, if living in 1607 (as she undoubtedly was), would be his wife, as stated in the Chancery proceedings. This, we think, is conclusive, as shewing that 'Alread' is the same as 'Aldred.' This also occurs in the entry of the burial of and tombstone to the memory of the Revd. Timothy Aldred (see Morley, ancient and modern). Having shewn that ' Aired,' ' Aleured,' ' Alered ' and ' Alread,' are the same as ' Alured,' and that the latter name represents, Aldred.' One may as sume from the same arguments that 'Eldred' is practically derived from the same source. » -> SUFFOLK RECORDS, 155 We will now treat in the same way the name ' Alfred,' ' Alfride,' < Aldfrid,' or ' Eldfrid,' who was a King of North umberland, and reconciled by historians as being one and the same personage. The first name is clearly ' Alfred ' or ' Elfred,' and the three other names represent also ' Alfred ' or ' Elfred.' It cannot but be observed that by the elimination of the ' f ' in the three latter names, we get ' Alride,' ' Aldrid ' and ' Eldrid.' nearly corresponding with 'Aired,' 'Aldred' and 'Eldred.' Then another King of Northumberland, lineally descended from Ida the first king of the Bernicii, is named ' Alered,' ' Alcrcdus,' or ' Alredus,' and by the elimination of the ' c ' in the first two names, we get ' Aired ' and ' Alredus,' the latter being the latinized name for ' Aired.' The same principle as applies to ' Aired,' ' Aleured,' ' Alered,' ' Alread ' and '' Alured,' will, it is thought, apply to ' Aldred,' ' Alldreed,' ' Alldred,' _ ' Alldread,' ' Aldrich ' and other slight variations in spelling, which phonetically are the same and ' Aldred ' is generally the way in which this modern sur name is now spelled. The writer's grandfather* when he married, signed the marriage register as ' Alldred.' The name ' Allard ' is also derived from ' Allured ' by the ' u ' in the latter name being written as ' a ' and the ' e ' being " eliminated. The name ' Aldridge ' is a mere corruption of ' Aldred,' especially among illiterate people, the name being more frequently announced as ' Aldridge ' than as ' Aldred,' and letters of administration granted to the writer's paternal great grandfather's brother's! estate are indexed as ' Samuel Aldridge alias ' Aldred.' Few families could trace, or even wish to trace to more remote origin, than the present family, members of whom we indisputably find in the earliest centuries, and it is pro posed to give passing notices of personages who occupied prominent positions in the early ages. As will be observed from Bardsley, " the peculiar feature of the majority of names that "preceded and survived the Norman Conquest, and which to a certain "extent maintained a hold, is that (save in a few instances) they did " not attach to themselves either filial or pet desinences " There fore it is to be observed that great difficulty attends the successful tracing of descent before and for several genera tions subsequent to the Conquest. The names given to the descendants would be very different to those which * The marriage of Henry William Aldred and Elizabeth Deans at St. George the Martyr, Southwark, 6 Jan., iSn. — lip. f Sec calendar T.C.C , administration of Samuel Aldrod, who died at the Boris, 17S4. — Ed. 156 SUFFOLK RECORDS. SUFFOLK RECORDS. 157 their ancestors bore, in fact each successive generation would probably be totally different. But it is beyond all doubt that our ancestors were closely connected with tiie West Saxon and Northumberland kings. .When .writing the above we had not before us Scatherd's history ot Morley, but from the following extract therefrom (kindly sent by Mr. Wm. Smith, of Morley) it appears that that historian endorses many of the above remarks, he says : ' ' The name of Aired, Alured, or Aldred (for it is varionsly wta)ii "of frequent occurrence and famous m English history ; Gol. John "Alured and his brother Matthew, were celebrated officers during the -Civil War and served their country under the protectorship of " Cromwell In i6s7 these brothers, with another named Lancelot, " were amongst the Commissioners appointed by the Government or ' ' raising an assessment in England for three months and were nominated for the East Riding of Yorkshire. But Aired, which is only a contrac- "tkm for Ealred or Ealdred, is a name of high antiqmty and we " known as having been borne by some of our Saxon monarch* as we •• as by that Archbishop of York, who set the crown on the head both " of Harold and the Conqueror." Early Passing Notices. S88— Ethelric, /Elric, or Elric, King of Bernicia, which was a moiety of the Government of Northumbna. 686— In the 7th century we have 'Alfred,' ' Alfride i' ' Aldfrid' or ' Eldfrid,' son of Ofwi, king of Northumberland, who was educated as became the son of a king, and as Beda tells us, lived among the Scots and acquired a great know ledge in the scriptures and in all solid and useful learning. In his father's kingdom he behaved himself with great wisdom and prudence, and by his persuasion his brother- in-law ' Peada,' the son of ' Pendo," king of the Mercians, renounced heathenism and embraced the Christian religion Errfrid (brother to Alfred) succeeded his father (Ofw 1) as king, but great jealousy existed between the two brothers and3 Alfred, who was a great prince, retired into Ireland to avoid his brother's fury, and led a philosophical kind of hfe, conversing with the learned and being distinguished from other private men only by the virtues of his mind. Here his brother persecuted him and waged war against Alfred's protectors and was slain in battle. On Egtud s death Alfred was declared king of Northumberland m he war 686, and by his wisdom and piety he restored the Cdomto ordeJ and released his people from oppressive K and taxes, and by proper administration made his people easy and happy, which they certainly were not in Egfrid's reign.

I take the liberty 01 tcpresenting to you, that you have one acre so imme diately situated behind my garden, as makes it very desirable to me, and indeed necessary to the putting in execution our plan.

The land designed in exchange belongs to Sr. Thomas Gage, who is desirous for my accommodation to go through it, and as our other business of exchanging in some measure stands still until we have the favour of your approbation, I hope you will excuse my further request of an answer as soon as it suits you to give one. Mr. Greaves and Mr. Garnham both know of this request and will be kind enough to testify the particulars i have mentioned, and indeed, as a stranger to 4 you, I could not have taken the liberty to have given you this trouble, but under the sanction of their approbation, if it also meets with yours, you will greatly oblige' Sir, your most obedient humble servant, JONATHAN CARTER. Flempton, March 3rd, 1760. Cotton. The pedigree and descent of the ancient and worthy family of the Cottons, of Hodnet and Alkington, in the the county of Salop, from whom the Cottons of Easton and Marlesford, county Suffolk, descended. The ancestors of Sir Hugh Coton, of Coton, were according to reliable authorities, seated at Hodnet long before the conquest, and places Anciently called Cotes, are found afterwards to be usually called either Cotes, Coten, Coton, or Cotton, which is but a change from singular to plural, and quite intelligible, when it is considered that it probably cor responded with the multiplication of dwellings in any particular spot. Cotes and Coten meaning literally cottages, were anciently common names of hamlets. Cotton is a place standing on the River Tern, and near the spot where the road between Hodnet and Stoke upon Tern must have crossed that river.* The Cotons of Coton, Chesire, being descendants of the Cotes or Cotens, of Hodnet, Salop, were consequently settlors in the county Cheshire at a much later period than the Cotes or Cotons were at Hodnet. The Cotes or Cotens of Leicestershire were undoubtedly of the same family, while the Cottons of Cambridge were quite distinct, the latter being des cended from the Cotons settled at Coton, in Kent, long before the Conquest." * Cottun is a place in the department of Calvados, Normandy, and also the name of places in different counties in England Cotwn sig nifies in the Welsh language, "an enclose." Professor Leo observes that "if SelS is the dwelling of the wealthy- " off landowners, Cote on the other hand, indicates the abode of the "poorer classes, Cote is the house of an indigent dependent coun- "tryman, who, without any personal estate, holds a transferable "tenement in fief. It was originally a house of mud, or of earth, "with loam walls." The successive steps of the orthography seem to have been Coles, or Coatcs, Cotun. Coton, Cotton.

Clowes. 167 Bardsley in speaking of Clowes, says :— Our ' Cloughs ' represent the narrow fissures betwixt the hills.. From the same root we owe our ' Gives , (the de la Clive of the hundred Rolls) ' Cliffes,' ' Cleves ' and ' Clowes.' .Burke says — This family of Cheshire extraction pos sessed (besides lands in Staffordshire) property in Maccles field from Hen. VII. to 1808 (as evidenced by deeds still in their possession) in an uninterrupted male descent and from which district of country, it being much diversified by hill and dale, the name is most probably derived as in the old deeds it was written ' Cloughes,' which according to Lexicographers is a Saxon word signifying a cliff or cleft or a valley between high hills. There is a place in the immediate vicinity called ' Wild Boar Clough,' and another ' Clough ' house. The name was sometimes written ' Close,' but latterly ' Clowes.' Wiiitakf.r in his history of Whnlley fays :— A family of ' Del Clough ' held property at Rowed, which ended in a female, flourishing ahout the 13II1, 14th and 15th cen turies. Adam Del Clough and Alice his wife had a son Richard, who had a son John, who had a daughter Joan, who married Sir Richard de Greenacres — the family is mentioned in several very ancient charters, both as parties and witnesses and in the Coucherbook of Wh alley (Chet- ham Society). The Arms — Vert on a chev, between three unicorns' heads erased or, as many crescents gu, and the crest, a demi-hon vert,ducally crowned or, supporting a battle axe arg., the staff gold, which were respective!}' confirmed by Sir Gilbert Dethick (1576) and William Dethick, garter (27 Nov., 1595).

These facts make it needless that any apology should be offered for the appearance of the work in a series like the Book Lover's Library, especially as the present edition has been considerably altered and improved by the author. The volume has been revised throughout, a fresh chapter and introduction have been added, as well as new illustrations to the various chapters, and a full index is given for reference. The value of the ENEMIES OF Books consists in the interesting account given in his own genial manner, by Mr. Blades, of the various agencies that have been at work throughout the centuries in which there have been books in existence, for their destruction ; it is interspersed with curious and interesting accounts of such extermi nation, brightened with many amusing anecdotes and incidents.

HOW TO FORM A LIBRARY. By HENRY B. WHEATLEY, F.S.A. THE object of this work is to provide information for those who are interested in the forming of Libraries, whether those who propose creating a library for themselves, or desire to know something practi cally of the collection of books for other purposes. This information is given in a condensed and accessible form, and the reader is constantly referred to further sources where wider and more detailed knowledge can be obtained. OLD COOKERY BOOKS AND ANCIENT CUISINE,, By WILLIAM CAREW HAZLITT. MR. HAZLITT gives in this work a historical sketch of the subject of cookery as supplied by the literature of this and other countries • he also furnishes a very complete bibliography of Cookery Books' with much curious and amusing information gleaned from them ; incidentally much little-known and out-of-the-way information is supplied concerning the progress of Uie science of prepaiing food, with the gradual modification of dressing and serving it. the introduction of cooking and feeding utensils and implements; the diet of the English yeomanry and poor; the use of the public tavern and cook shop, the ancient etiquette of the table and many other points of interest which are rarely studied, but which yield much quaint and entertaining matter. x THE LITERATURE OF LOCAL INSTITUTIONS. By G. LAURENCE GOMME, F.S.A. EACH of these sections is prefaced by a short but condensed historical account of the institution with which it deals, pointin" out its most interesting features. This is followed by a classified lisl of books and other documents relating to the subject. The copious index of localities and subjects treated of in the text, puts the information the work contains at the easy command of the reader. MODERN METHODS OF ILLUSTRATING BOOKS. THIS volume appeals to a special class of book-lovers— those who love illustrated books. Commencing with the early forms of illustrating books, and tracing the art down to our own day the author leads the reader up to modern processes of producing illustrations. These various processes, beginning with ordinary photographic printing, and passing gradually through collotype, photo- lithography, "chemicll engraving or phototype, up to photo-gravure, the process by which large engravings of pictmcs are now so successfully produced, are all carefully described with much clearness, so as to render them intelligible to readers of ordinary intelligence, but without special technical knowledge. GLEANINGS IN OLD GARDEN LITERATURE. By W. C. HAZLITT. IN this volume ol the Book Lover's Lirrary the author has gleaned in many out-of-the-way fields, and has brought home and spread before the reader a banquet well garnished with fruit and vegetable lore, rendered pleasant by the fragrance of many old-fashioned flowers. The illustrious men of our country who have delighted in a country life, and have spent their leisure hours in the pleasures of the garden, sit round the board, while some of the great gardeners of the past enliven their patrons with curious narratives of their craft in pleasant fashion. THE DEDICATION OF BOOKS TO PATRON AND FRIEND. By HENRY B. WHEATLEY, F.S.A., Author of " How to Form a Library," &c. THE author in his Introduction traces the history of his subiect through many centuries. In following chapters he confines himself to English literature, and gives specimens of dedications from the works of Caxton to those of the Authors of the present day. A separate chapter is devoted to the sphinx-like dedication of Shakespeare's Sonnets similar honour is done to Drydcn and Dr. Johnson. The Author traces his subject through its three phases. In its fust stage dedications arc seen as the spontaneous expression of an author's love for his friend or his patron ; in the second those years are tr.ivci sed when all sense of shame was absent fiom the mind of the author, who sold his praises to the highest bidder; and in the thiid the reader is led back to a condition of things icsembling the first, for at the present day the dedication is ouly used by an author who withes to associate his book with some friend, as the patiou has ceased to exist.

HE use of Counting Out Rhymes and similar jingles is found in the games of Children in all countries ; some of these, if not identical, are so similar in character, and sometimes in sound, as to attract special attention and to raise the question — what is their origin, and what connection have they one with another? The author of this volume has "given this subject special attention and has studied the various forms of these jingles in many countries, collecting and classifying nearly nine hundred examples* and attaching to them notes and explanations which will, it is believed, bear out the conclusion to which he has come, that these Counting Out Rhymes and the customs perpetuated in the childish games of various lands, are of great antiquity, and that they originate in the superstitious practices of divination by lots. Some idea will be formed of the range of the volume by the following collation of the number of Jingles which it gives in the twenty languages mentioned : — Penobscot Dialect Japanese Hawaii Marathi. Dialect of Poona Romany Arabic, Dialect of Syria . . Turkish and Armenian Bulgarian Modern Greek Swedish PortugueseSpanish Basque ItalianFrench DutchPlatt-Deutsch GermanEnglish 5 i 3 io 83 7 3 39S 2 I 40 18 269 464 Total An interesting and exhaustive introduction gives the reader the general views of the author and the reason for the conclusion he has arrived at. This introduction is divided into seven chapters and treats among others of the following subjects : — Numerical Jingles Casting Lots among Ancient People Methods of Divination The Origin of Doggerels, Charms, and Gypsy Magic Spells The Antiquity of Counting-Out Rhymes Comparisons between the Rhymes of Various Countries Rhymes derived from Latin Prayers Druidical Rhymes The Sources of Doggerel Rhymes Traced Changes in Transported Rhymes College Songs Invention of Rhymes by Children Indian Mode of Counting On the Classification of Rhymes and Doggerels The author has been assisted in his work by students of many countries and has also availed himself of the help of children by correspondence and oral repetition. A valuable list of works published in various languages, which have been consulted in compiling the work, is also given. The Counting Out Rhymes of Children is tastefully printed on antique paper in fcap, /fto. size. Only 500 copies are printed and will be charged to subscribers for a short time at 6/6 per copy.

They arc necessarily brief, but should they, in any instance, be regarded as insufficient, the remark attributed to an eminent French writer may possibly be urged as apologetic: he said, " The multiplicity of facts and writings has become so great, that everything soon •will have to be reduced to extracts." It has also been urged that "so great is the mass of our book-heritage, that it is absolutely impossible for anyone to make himself acquainted with even the hundredth part of it : so that our choice lies for the most part between ignorance of much that we would like to know, and that kind of acquaintance which is to be acquired only by desultory reading." And since it has been affirmed that "he is the best author who gives the reader the most knowledge and takes from him the least time " these claims have not been ignored, it is believed, in the preparation of ihe following pages.

OLD COOKERY BOOKS AND ANCIENT CUISINE. By WILLIAM CAREW HAZLITT. MR. HAZLITT gives in this work a historical sketch 01 the subject of cookeiy as supplied by the literature of this and other countries; he also furnishes a veiy complete bibliography of Cookery Books, with much curious and amusing information gleaned from them ; incidentally much little-known and out-of-the-way information is supplied concerning the progress of the science of prepaiing food, with the gradual modification of dressing and serving it, the introduction of cooking and feeding utensils and implements; the diet of the English yeomanry and poor; the use of the public tavern and cook shop, the ancient etiquette of the table, and many other points of interest which are rarely studied, but which yield much quaint and entertaining matter.

The Municipal Borough v. The Guilds vi. Tup, Manor vii. The Township and Parish. ACH of these sections is prefaced by a short but condensed historical pointing out its most E. account of the institution with which it deal interesting features. This is followed by a classified list of books and other documents relating to the subject. The copious index of localities nnd subjects treated of in the text, puts the information the work contains at the easy command of the reader. MODERN METHODS OF ILLUSTRATING BOOKS. THIS volume appeals to a special class of book-lovers — those who love illustrated books. Commencing with the early forms of illustrating books, and tracing the art down to our own day the author leads the reader up to modern processes of producing illustrations. These various processes, beginning with ordinary photographic printing, and passing gradually through collotype, photo-lithography, "chemical engraving" or phototype, up to photo -gravure, the process by which large engravings of pictures are now so successfully produced, are all carefully described with much clearness, so as to render them intelligible to readers of ordinary intelligence, but without special technical knowledge. GLEANINGS IN OLD GARDEN LITERATURE. By W. C. HAZLITT. IN this volume ot the Book Lover's Library the author has gleaned in many out-of-the-way fields, and has brought home and spread before the reader a banquet well garnished with fruit and vegetable lore, rendered pleasant by the fragrance of many old-fashioned flowers. The illustrious men of our country who have delighted in a country life, and have spent their leisure hours in the pleasures of the garden, sit round the board, while some of the great gardeners of the past enliven their patrons with curious narratives of their craft in pleasant fashion.

THE DEDICATION OF BOOKS TO PATRON AND FRIEND. By HENRY B. WHEATLEY, F.S.A, Author of "How to Form a Library," (sec. THE author in his Introduction traces the history of his subiect through many centuries. In following chapters he confines himself to English literature and gives specimens of dedications from the works of Caxton to those of the Authors of the present day. A separate chapter is devoted to the sphinx-like dedication of Shakespeare's Sonnets similar honour is done to Drvden and Dr. Johnson. The Author traces his subject through its three phases In its first stage dedications are seen as the spontaneous expression of 'an author's love for his friend or his patron ; in the second those years are Uaversed when all sense of shame was absent from the mind of the author, ¦ho sold his praises to the highest bidder; and m the thud the reader is led back to a condition of things resembling the first, for at the present day the dedication is onlv used by an author who wishes to associate his book with some friend, as the patron has ceased to exist.

NEW VOLUME OF THE BOOK LOVER'S LIBRARY. THE BOOK OF NOODLES. STORIES OF SIMPLETONS; OR, FOOLS AND THEIR FOLLIES. By W. A. CLOUSTON, Author of ' Popular Tales cV Fictions,' Editor of the • Book ofSindibad,' &c. MONG the many folk-stories which are traced through the various literatures of the world, those which have been classed under the head of Noodle Stories, or savings and doings of Simpletons, are perhaps the most interesting. The appreciation of humour in the human mind has kept these stories alive through long ages, and has diffused them through the various races of the world. They are always instructive as showing the common origin of humanity, and how variations and local colour are" given to them in different climes. . They are amusing as showing the varying character of the humour they contain according to the races they pass through. In the present collection (which it is believed is the first systematic one that has been attempted) the author- takes some of the most prominent and representative noodle stories, from literature and oral tradition, and tracing them through various countries gives much interesting and entertaining information concerning the transformations they have undergone. The work is divided into seven chapters, the first of which is devoted to " Ancient Grecian Noodles," with some parallel or analogous stories of their brethren elsewhere. Then follow three chapters of " Gothamite Drolleries," of which the merry " Talcs of the Mad Men of Gotham" form but an insignificant portion. In the fifth chapter will be found a number of tales of the " Silly Son " in different countries — the youth known to those familiar with Sir George W. Dasent's charming Norse tales by the name of Silly Matt, who always does the right thing at the wrong time. In the sixth chapter, the diverting tale of "The Four Simple Brahmans" is given, who dispute with one another for the palm of superior stupidity. In the seventh and last chapter are cited a considerable number of versions of the diverting tale of the man who left home, vowing he would not return until he had found somewhere in the world three fools equal to his wife. The work concludes with an Appendix, which comprises the introduction to, and two stories from, the curious old jest-book, entitled — " Jacke of Dover, his Quest of Inquirie, or his Privy Search for the Veriest Foole in England." NOODLE STORIES is calculated to prove of value to the student of the History of Humour, the Collector _ of jest books, and the folk-lorist, as well as entertaining to the Book Lover. The author has been engaged during many years in gathering materials, much of which is drawn from sources not generally accessible, and some not even generally known to exist, and has, it is believed, produced a volume which will be gladly welcomed in the series to which it belongs. The Book Lover's Library is tastefully printed in antique style, in the best manner, on antique paper and is handsomely bound in the following forms :— No. I.

Much time was consumed in the printing, and many hmderances arose, for which the Editor was not responsible, put fortunately nearly the whole of the matter was in type at the time of his death, and in such a shape that, by the kind assistance of Mr. Alfred Wallia f.r.s.l., it has been completed and is now issued for subscribers. The contents of the Second Series of The Angler's Note Book are as interesting and varied as those of the first, and many fresh items of entertaining knowledge concerning fish and fishing are to be found in its pages, as well as much choice information on out-of-the-way subjects connected with Natural History. j It reproduces much old angling lore from scarce and little-known books, and chats pleasantly and sympathetically of woods, fields and streams to those who love the country and its elevating influence. It contains several curious illustrations of pre-historic and ancient fish hooks ; and a humorotis series of scenes illustrating the search for that elusive individual for whom the late editor sought so perseveringly and so long — the Scholarly Angler.

Illustrative of the Life, Manners, mid Habits of the English Nation during the Seventeenth Century. Collected and Edited, with very numeroua and Quaint Illustrations taken in facsimile from the Originals. By JOHN ASHTON. Thi3 volume ia a representative collection of the Ballad literature of the Seventeenth Century, affording a view of the inner life of th-,- people which can. be obtained from no other source. In the Social Ballads we llnd the mode of living which then existed. The special correspondents of the day set before us cuirent events in the Historical Ballads. Jn the Supernatural Ballads we see the foibles and superstitions of the people. Love never changes: 200 years ugo its expression was of the same nature as to-day, though a little less refined, and perhaps a little more pronounced. ; the old stories of love-making are refreshing in their simplicity and directness. Boi-.ti>rous Patriotic Ballads are also to be found in the volume, and also many miscellaneous ones, which though, not classified, are valuable for their quaintness and the light they shed on manners aud customs.

Descriptive Reviews of Books about books will be a leading feature of the new Magazine; and it will also contain a complete monthly record of all biblio graphical publications at home and abroad.
