Notes and queries

Google

This is a digital copy of a book that was preserved for generations on library shelves before it was carefully scanned by Google as part of a project
to make the world’s books discoverable online.

It has survived long enough for the copyright to expire and the book to enter the public domain. A public domain book is one that was never subject
to copyright or whose legal copyright term has expired. Whether a book is in the public domain may vary country to country. Public domain books
are our gateways to the past, representing a wealth of history, culture and knowledge that’s often difficult to discover.

Marks, notations and other marginalia present in the original volume will appear in this file - a reminder of this book’s long journey from the
publisher to a library and finally to you.

Usage guidelines

Google is proud to partner with libraries to digitize public domain materials and make them widely accessible. Public domain books belong to the
public and we are merely their custodians. Nevertheless, this work is expensive, so in order to keep providing this resource, we have taken steps to
prevent abuse by commercial parties, including placing technical restrictions on automated querying.

We also ask that you:

+ Make non-commercial use of the files We designed Google Book Search for use by individuals, and we request that you use these files for
personal, non-commercial purposes.

+ Refrain from automated querying Do not send automated queries of any sort to Google’s system: If you are conducting research on machine
translation, optical character recognition or other areas where access to a large amount of text is helpful, please contact us. We encourage the
use of public domain materials for these purposes and may be able to help.

+ Maintain attribution The Google “watermark” you see on each file is essential for informing people about this project and helping them find
additional materials through Google Book Search. Please do not remove it.

+ Keep it legal Whatever your use, remember that you are responsible for ensuring that what you are doing is legal. Do not assume that just
because we believe a book is in the public domain for users in the United States, that the work is also in the public domain for users in other
countries. Whether a book is still in copyright varies from country to country, and we can’t offer guidance on whether any specific use of
any specific book is allowed, Please do not assume that a book’s appearance in Google Book Search means it can be used in any manner
anywhere in the world. Copyright infringement liability can be quite severe.

Say and which also shows the folly of our
jolated system of vowel pronunciation, When
the mad assault on the town of Buenos Ayres (with
unloaded muskets), under the ordera of General
Whitlocke, had ended in the unconditional
surrender of our troops, great difficulty was pital
experienced in establishing the necessary com-| aterihu

officials. No English officer was conversant with
Spanish, and none of the Spaniards sufficiently

for some priests and try Latin, a8 nmong onr ranks
were sovorul university graduates. The padres
accordingly appeared, and our Oxonians tackled
them ; but neithor party could make out the words
used by the other, their pronunciation of Latin
being quite different. a Los Sac eats one

Wanrtsuxpay (5 8 viii. 2, 05.)—A minor
mestion, but still an important one, arises from
Me. Picrox’s valuable note on the derivation of
Whitsunday. He says, and Mr. Skea seems to
confirm his decision, *‘ Tt is proved from a variety
of sources that the Pentecostal Sunday was the
Dominiex in Albis.” These gentlemen may be
right in the derivation of the word Whitsunday,
and probably are so, but are they equally so in
this matter of ecclesiastical history f heatly
is very clear about this, Speaking of the first
Sunday after Enster, he says: “In Latin it is
ard Dominica in ean or ae goat

Eastor Eve on this day laid aside those white
robes or chrysoms.” Perhaps some of your readers

Cromwell, all of the above being as old as the
Conquest, the second and third names on the death
warrant, viz, Grey and Cromwell, both married
a Bourchier, yet _no relation to each other. The
former I have already named ; and his wife must
have been a cousin of Sir John Bourchier, whose
signature (the eighth) and seal, both of which are
very plain, prove him to have been of the old stock
of the Bourchiers of Essex, who possessed in dif-
ferent branches of the family no less than three
earldoms, vie. of Ewe, Essex, and Bath ; whereas
Cromwell's wife, Elizabeth, daughter of Sir James

that the remainder was of no value. There is a
heading to the passage, “Super morté Comitis

ymer's reference, “a.p, 1428. An. 7 H. 6.

The passage from Johan. de Fordun, Scoti-

pages It takes four Svo. sides ; but the correct

ference may be useful to. Mr. Bannd, and he
may get it copied. It will be found in Hearne's

T may add that there is no allusion to tho heroine
being othorwise than maiden. After stating that
the king was crowned at Rheima, and then the
wounding of Joan, “Ja Pucel per utraque femors

“Quo comperto, rex tranaulit se Aurelinnis, ot ipsa
