the least authority for such a representation. St. 

 Patrick is not likely to have ever carried either 

 cross or crosier, such ihsignia having come into 

 use after his time. This is merely a conventional 

 mode of representing an archbishop. If C. O. J. 

 will consult Dr. Rock's valuable work, The Church 

 of our Fathers (vol. ii. p. 217. et seq.'), he will be 

 satisfied that there is no real authority for the 

 double-barred cross, so often given by painters 

 to an archbishop. F. C. H. 



The Apostles' Mass at St. PauFs (2"^ S. v. 213. 

 296.) — I have to express my obligations to the 

 Kev. Dr. Rock and the Rev. W. Denton for 

 their replies to my inquiry on this subject. I beg, 

 however, to say that I totally disagree with the 

 suggestion of the latter, that this mass had any- 

 thing especially to do with those feasts upon which 

 two saints were commemorated. It is ascertained 

 that the Apostles' mass in St. Paul's was a. daily 

 service, performed at the very early hour of five 

 o'clock in the morning ; that it was performed in 

 weekly succession by the nine minor canons (no- 

 vem minores prsebendffi — darie ?) at the altar of 

 the apostles — at which altar was also celebrated 

 the mass for the soul of Martin de Pateshulle, for- 

 mbrly Dean ; but I have not discovered. On curso- 

 rily turning over the pages of Dugdale's St. PauVs, 

 in what part of the church that altar was situated, 

 nor to what particular apostles it was dedicated — 

 whether to the whole twelve, or to St. Peter and 

 St. I*aul, who, as Dr. Rock states, were comme- 

 morated together on the 29th of June. I find, in 

 addition to my former notes, that Machyn tells us 

 that " after the accession of Elizabeth, on the xxx. 

 day of September (1559), begane the mornyng 

 [prayer] at Poulles at that owr (i. e. at the same 

 early hour) as the postylles mass." Any notice, 

 therefore, of the chapel in which morning prayer 

 was read after the Reformation until the destruc- 

 tion of the old church might tell where the Apos- 

 tles' altar had previously stood.
