tender ” was by them styled King James the third 
of England and eighth of Scotland. ‘The Jaco- 
bins” was the name of a faction in France during 
the Revolution. This name originated in a poli- 
tical club, which, in 1789, assembled in the sup- 
pressed convent of the Jacobins, or Dominican 
monks, in the Rue de St. Honoré, in Paris.

Peerage Query (2°78. i. 335.) —If the peer- 
age was forfeited in the year 1435 by the attainder 
of the then peer, and it was restored by the re- 
versal of the attainder, the peerage would not be- 
long to the person who is then heir to it under the 
original grant of it; but if it was restored to the 
family in 1605, by a new grant from King James, 
it would now belong to the person who is heir to 
it under the limitations contained in such new 
grant. Be Awne. 
London Architecture (2° 8. i. 73.) —H. will 
find, in The Builder (vol. x., Nos. 515-16.), and 
one or two earlier numbers, engravings and de- 
scriptions of ‘‘The Houses and Shops of Old 
London.” Many of the engravings are from exist- 
ing examples; and amongst them, I doubt not, 
he will find the information he seeks.

“ Folly,” a Farce (24 8. i. 334.) — Your corre- 
spondent X. is mistaken in calling Folly a farce, 
a dramatic piece, misled, no doubt, by the title. 
It is a pamphlet relating to local matters, and is 
extremely rare. I have never seen but one copy, 
which is in the collection of a friend of mine.

General James Wolfe (1* 8. xi. 257.) —It is 
stated that General Wolfe, after he received his 
death-wound, was carried off the field of battle by 
a grenadier of the 28th regiment, then known as 
“ Braggs.” On the other band it is asserted that 
the individual who supported the wounded general 
on this sad occasion was a grenadier belonging to 
the 58th regiment, then known as “ Robert An- 
struthers.” Can any of your military archzolo- 
gists solve this difficulty? In West’s picture at 
Hampton Court a grenadier is introduced; are 
his facings yellow or black? The former would 
assign him to the 28th regiment, “ The Slashers,” 
and the black facings would lead to the conclusion 
that he belonged to the 58th regiment, of Gib- 
raltar fame. Is this circumstance mentioned in 
any life or memoirs of General Wolfe? The 
name of the soldier in question was James M’Dou- 
gal, and at page 47 of Cannon’s History of the 67th 
Regiment he is styled “the faithful Highland ser- 
geant who attended him when dying.” G.L.S. 
Singular Funeral Sermon (2° §. i. 353.) — This

many times separately reprinted at Diss. I enclose 
a copy of the tenth edition (1823). In an advertise- 
ment prefixed the Sermon is stated to have been 
taken from the British Magazine for November, 
1750. The date, 1733, mentioned by M.&., is 
erroneous. According to Blomefield’s History of 
Norfolk, i. 163., Robert Proctor, A.M. was pre- 
sented to the rectory of Gissing, in 1613, and died 
in 1668, when he was succeeded by John Gibbs, 
A.M., “an odd but harmless man.” At Burston, 
which is an adjoining parish, Hugh More, A.M. 
was instituted, 1626, and held that living until 
1674 (Blomefield, i. 126.). There was, in 1736, 
in the churchyard, “ at the east end of the chancel, 
a grave post much decayed, for Hugh Moore, late 
rector, by which it appeared that he was a Scotch- 
man.” ‘Thomas Cole, clerk, also named in the 
Sermon, was rector of Shimpling, another adjacent 
village. He was instituted 1649, and died 1684 
(Lbid. i, 155.). Blomefield mentions an alliance 
between the Proctors and Buxtons (i. 128. 158.; 
vy. 283.), from which it would seem that “ Mr. 
Buxton’s worship” was of the family settled in 
the olden time at Channons Hall, Tibenham, and 
now at Shadwell Lodge, near Thetford. Whether 
the so-called Sermon is worth preserving in “N. 
& Q.,” I submit to better judgment. Charity for- 
bids the thought that such a burlesque ever dis- 
graced a pulpit of ‘the Church of England; it 
seems more likely to have been a satirical produc- 
tion, the point of which has been lost among 
many irrecoverable things of greater worth.

Extraordinary “Liturgy” (2° 8. i, 292.) — 
Your correspondent P. J. F. Ganritton wishes 
to know if there was any technical name at Athens 
for an extraordinary Ae:rovpyia, in contradistinction 
to the term éyxé«Awos. If he will refer to Lewis’s 
translation of Béckh’s Public Economy of Athens, 
bk. m1. ch. xxi. p. 451., he will find this remark: 
“There was not any separate name for the extra- 
ordi liturgies; Reiske invented the appellation of 
contiiiibory liturgies (mpograkrat Aetrovpyiar), in order to 
correct a passage in a Byzantine decree which confers 
upon the Athenians an exemption from certain liturgies 
at Byzantium: it is, however, highly improbable that 
the extraordinary liturgies are intended, for at Athens 
the extraordinary liturgies were the only ones from which 
an exemption was allowed; and moreover the alteration, 
even if the extraordinary liturgies were meant, must ne- 
cessarily remain doubtful.” 
The passage in the Byzantine decree to which 
he refers is to be found in Demosth. de Corona, 
p. 256—10. W. T. SHERBORNE.
