Portrait of First Duke of St. Albans by Le Due. 
—I have lately purchased a small oil picture said 
to be a portrait of the first Duke of St. Albans, 
and painted by Le Duc. It had been for upwards 
of a century in the possession of one family before 
it became mine. Could any of your correspond- 
ents inform me if it is known that Le Duc painted 
any portrait of the duke ? C. M. 
Construction of Quadrants. — Information is re- 
quested of any work in which I may find instruc- 
tions for the construction of quadrants, particularly 
Sutton’s or Collins's. © Waui11am Tucker, M.D.

William III, §c.— 1. Where am I likely to 
find copies of the warrants issued to the Masters- 
General of the Ordnance, during the reign of Wil- 
liam IIT., authorising the various trains of artillery, 
&c., required for the campaign in Flanders ? 
2. Where can I find a detailed account of the 
campaign in Flanders during the reign of Wil- 
liam IIL? 
3. What are the contemporary histories of this 
reign ? * R. R.A. 
Knights of St. John of Jerusalem. — Among the 
Trish Knights of St. John were, in the reign of 
Henry VIII., some of the Fitzgeralds. On the 
2nd Feb. 1535-6 were executed at Tyburn, 
Thomas, Earl of Kildare, and the whole of his 
five uncles, Sir James, Oliver, Richard, Sir John, 
and Walter. The peerages describe Sir James 
and Sir John both as Knights of St. John of Je- 
rusalem. In the Chronicle of the Grey Friars of 
London (printed for the Camden Society, 1852), 
p- 39., all five brothers are designated “ Sir” as 
being knights, but “Sir Richard” only is called 
“Lord of St. John’s in Ireland,” and not Sir 
James or Sir John. It is probable that Cerrep, 
or some other of the correspondents of “ N. & Q.” 
on this subject, can refer to the lists which con- 
tain the names of the Irish knights, and say which 
of the preceding accounts is correct. J.G.N. 
Hinor Queries with Answers. 
Dr. Thomas Deacon and Bishop Cartwright 
(1* S. xii. 85.) —I happened to mention to one 
_ who, as far as this neighbourhood is concerned, is 
the walking register of births, deaths, and mar- 
riages, the account which appeared in your num- 
ber for last August of Dr. Thomas Deacon, one of 
[* See “N. & Q.” 1S, ix. 542.) 
the nonjuring bishops. He gave me this account 
of Dr. Deacon’s son-in-law, to which I hope you 
will give insertion, and so enable me to obtain 
answers to the two Queries which I wish to pro- 
pose. There lived in this town (Shrewsbury), 
during the latter part of the last century, an 
apothecary, one William Cartwright ; he had been 
consecrated a bishop by Dr. Deacon, whose 
daughter he had married. He was a retiring, 
worthy man, esteemed much by all who knew him. 
He had only one son, Thomas Theodorus, who 
died unmarried. Bishop Cartwright was often 
visited by his people for instruction, who, most of 
them, lived in Manchester, to which place he made 
occasional journeys. He used to read the service 
for the dead ‘over the bodies of his followers 
before they were removed from the house. He 
ordained one Presbyter, a Mr. Podmore, who was 
master of a school in this town, near which he 
lies buried. The bishop is interred in St. Giles’s 
churchyard; the words on the stone marking the 
spot are, “ Underneath lie the remains of William 
Cartwright, Apothecary, who died Oct. 14, 1799, 
aged 69.” The questions which I wish to put 
are: 1. Do any records exist of the consecrations, 
ordinations, &c., amongst the nonjurors? 2. Was 
William Cartwright the last of the nonjuring 
bishops ? D. Mountrietp. 
Claremont, Shrewsbury. 
[For the records relating to the consecrations among 
the nonjurors consult the Appendix to the Hon. and Rev. 
A. P. Perceval’s Apology for the Doctrine of Apostolical 
Succession, as well as a valuable paper by that gentleman 
in the British Magazine, vol. xviii. p- 23. There were 
two more consecrations after that of Cartwright. In 1780 
Cartwright and Price were consecrated by Dr. Deacon. 
In 1795 Cartwright consecrated Thomas Garnett, and at 
a later period Charles Boothe, and with him this line ter- 
minated. It may not be generally known that Dr. Sea- 
bury, on his arrival in England in 1783, with a view of 
obtaining consecration as Bishop of Connecticut, had 
some correspondence with Mr. Cartwright, previous to 
his application to the Church in Scotland, from whose pre- 
lates he eventually received his orders. Mr. Cartwright’s 
letter is preserved in the library of the late Rev. H. H. 
Norris, of Hackney, and printed in The Colonial Church 
Chronicle for December, 1849, p. 217. This letter is par- 
ticularly interesting, as throwing light upon the condi- 
tion, at that period, of the remnant of that distinguished 
body of men. It also shows that Cartwright was a man 
well versed in theology, thoroughly acquainted with the 
writings of the nonjuring divines, such as Dr. Hickes, 
Jeremy Collier, Leslie, Brett, &c, and strongly attached 
to their tenets. William Cartwright died in 1799. On 
his death-bed he declared his conformity to the Church 
of England, and received the Eucharist according to the 
rites of that Church, from the Rev. W. G. Rowland. 
Boothe, the last of the nonjuring bishops, died in Ireland 
in the year 1805. ]
