was Dr. Samuel Pegge, the learned antiquary. | p. 435, et seg., comprising an enumeration of his 
They bore for arms : — Argent, a chevron between 
three piles, sable. Crest: —A demi-sun issuing 
from a wreath or, the rays alternately argent and 
sable. 
It was during his exile that the King first met 
with the fair Katherine, and in 1657 had a son by 
her, whom he called Charles Fitz-Charles, —not 
Fitz-roy, as Granger says. Fitz-Charles had a 
grant of the royal arms with a baton sinistre, 
vairé; and in 1675 his Majesty created him Earl 
of Plymouth, Viscount Totness, and Baron Dart- 
mouth. He was bred to the sea, and having been 
educated abroad, — most probably in Spain, — was 
known by the name of Don Carlos. In 1678 the 
Earl married the Lady Bridget Osborne, third 
daughter of Thomas Earl of Danby, and died of a 
flux at the siege of Tangier in 1680, without issue. 
Katherine Peoge, the Earl’s mother, after her 
liaison with the King, married Sir Edward Greene, 
Bart., of Samford in Essex, and died without 
issue by him in From this marriage the 
King is sometimes said to have had a mistress 
named Greene. 
There was long preserved in the family a half- 
length portrait of the Earl, in a robe de chambre, 
laced cravat, and flowing hair (with a ship in the 
back-ground of the picture), by Sir Peter Lely ; 
and also two of his mother, Lady Greene: one a 
half length, with her infant son standing by her 
side, the other a three-quarters, — both by Sir 
Peter Lely, or by one of his pupils. 
Both mother and son are said to have been 
eminently beautiful. G. M.

N., who refers our Querist for particulars of 
this lady to the ‘“‘ Memoirs of the Rev. Dr. Samuel 
Pegge and his Family,” in Nichols’ Literary Anec- 
dotes of the Eighteenth Century, vol. vi. pp. 224, 225, 
adds —“ As the lady had no issue by Sir Edward 
Greene, it perhaps does not matter what his family 
was. 
* T see he was created a baronet 26th July, 1660, 
and died s. p. Dec. 1676; and that Courthope, in 
his Extinct Baronetage, calls his lady ‘ dau. of 
—— Pegg,’ not being aware of her importance as 
the mother of the Earl of Plymouth. This may 
be worth remarking.” 
The Rev. T. Leman. 
Sir,— Your correspondent A. T. will find the 
information he requires respecting the Reverend 
Thomas Leman, of Bath, in the Gentleman's Maga- 
zine for Oct, 1826, p. 373.; for Aug. 1828, p. 183. ; 
and for Feb. 1829. He may also consult Britton’s 
Memoirs of the Life, Writings, and Character of 
Henry Hatcher. G. M. 
A Memoir of the Rev. Thomas Leman will be 
found in Nichols’s Idustrations of Literature, vol. vi. 
writings in various county histories and other 
works of that character, and followed by eighteen 
letters addressed to Mr. Nicholls, J. N. Brewer, 
Esq., and the Rev. Dr. Samuel Parr. N. 
Burnet Prize at Aberdeen. 
Sir, —I sent a query to the Atheneum, who, 
by a note, referred it to you. 
My object is to ascertain who gained the last 
Theological Premium (forty years since, or nearly) 
at Aberdeen. You no doubt know the subject: 
it is for the best Treatise on “ the Evidence that 
there is a Being all powerful, wise, and good, by 
whom every thing exists; and particularly to ob- 
viate difficulties regarding the wisdom and good- 
ness of the Deity; and this, in the first place from 
considerations independent of Written Revelation, 
and, in the second place, from the Revelation of 
the Lord Jesus ; and, from the whole, to point out 
the inferences most necessary for and useful to 
mankind.” 
I wish to know who gained the first prize, and 
who the second premium. H. Anprews. 
Manchester, Nov. 27. 1849. 
[ We are happy to be able to answer our correspond- 
ent’s query at once. The first Burnet prize, on the 
last occasion, was gained by the Reverend William 
Lawrence Brown, D.D., and Principal, if we recollect 
rightly, of Mareschal College, Aberdeen. His prize 
work, entitled Essay on the Existence of a Supreme 
Being possessed of infinite Power, Wisdom, and Good- 
ness, was published at Aberdeen, in 2 vols. 8vo. 1816. 
The second prize man was the present amiable and 
distinguished Archbishop of Canterbury. His work, 
entitled A Treatise on the Records of Creation, was 
published in London, in 2 vols. 8vo, 1816. ] 
Incumbents of Church Livings. 
Sir,—In answer to the Query of your corre- 
spondent L., I beg to inform him that he may find 
the name, if not the birth-place, of incumbents and 
patrons of Church Livings in the county of Nor- 
folk, long prior to 1680, in the Institution Books 
at Norwich, consisting of numerous well preserved 
folio volumes. Blomefield and Parkin, the histo- 
rians of the county, have made ample use of these 
inestimable books. G. M. 
History of Landed and Commercial Policy of 
England — History of Edward 11. 
In reply to the two queries of your corres- 
pondent Ancro-CAMBRIAN :— 
1. The Remarks upon the History of the Landed 
and Commercial Policy of England was written 
by the Rev. Joseph Hudson, Prebendary of Car- 
lisle, 1782, “a judicious and elegant writer, who 
could not be prevailed on to give his name with 
it to the public.”—See Nichols’s Literary Anecdotes 
of the Lighteenth Century, vol. viii. p. 160, note.
