Westbury-upon-Trym and Sea Mills—On Tuesday, Oct. 13th, 
there was a bye-excursion of the Club to Westbury-upon-Trym 
and Sea Mills. The train was taken to Clifton Down, thence the 
members walked across Durdham Down to Westbury for the 
purpose of seeing the Church. After some little difficulty an 
entrance was obtained through the well-guarded gates and doors

and fagots—a use for an old tomb which was gratifying to the 
most practical-minded utilitarian! An account of Bishop 
-Carpenter’s tomb, with other details connected with the Church, 
was framed and kept in the vestry for the use of visitors, an 
excellent idea of a late churchwarden, Mr. Savage, who seems to

century tomb of Sir Richard Hall, who died 1627, let into the east
