a visitor to our house, and she immediately acknowledged the cir- 
cumstance, though she could not recollect it. Her Majesty being 
at the time an infant in arms, could not recollect being at the palace, 
but she at once remembered that the incident had occurred. She 
knew the date and circumstances of her visit (December 20—238, 
1819), which was paid when the Duke and Duchess of Kent were 
going to Sidmouth, a journey from which the Duke did not return 
alive. 
Notes on the Architectural Wistory of the Palace.

Although within certain limits it is not difficult to decide the 
various times at which the greater portion of Salisbury Palace was 
built, it is nevertheless hard to assign its exact limits at any definite 
period. 
We know that it was begun by Bishop Richard Poore, the founder 
of New Sarum, about the year 1221, and perhaps it is easier to 
settle the approximate form and extent of the building as it was 
designed by him than at any future date until the time of Bishop 
Seth Ward, who restored the palace after the Great Rebellion. 
Of this thirteenth century work the undercroft beneath the great 
hall or “aula ” remains intact, although as now restored it does not 
present exactly the same appearance as it did originally ; in the first 
place the embrasure at the north end of the western aisle now oc- 
eupied by a two-light window was formerly a doorway which 
possibly gave access, as suggested in the foregoing lecture by Bishop 
Wordsworth, to the larder, above which on the the level of the great 
hall may have occurred the sewery; this seems a not improbable 
arrangement, for by this means the larder or buttery would have 
been placed on the level of the kitchen, and at no great distance 
from it, while the sewery would have been within easy access of the 
hall by means of a small doorway which may well have occurred in 
the north wall. 
The side windows of the undereroft were also rather different in
