ON THE "FIELD" AND "QUEEN" 159 



fifty years I cannot do better than close this long 

 chapter,* except to add that years previously 

 the house had presented Mr. Tegetmeier with a 

 fine pianoforte, and that among other personal 

 presents from Mr. Cox was a handsome hand- 

 wrought lamp (given in a particularly kindly 

 way) which burned nightly on his table as long 

 as he lived at Finchley. 



* Other references to Tegetmeier's work on the Field will be found 

 in Chapters XIII. and XV.
