 able to examine the original manuscripts, (with the corres- 

 pondence relating to them and the corrected proofs), from 

 which Mr. Crawhall obtained his information, in a volume of 

 matchless interest, now preserved in the Denison collection. See 

 also COQUET-DALE. "The Coquet-dale fishing songs, 1 'i852, and 

 CRAWHALL ( J.) " A collection of right merrie garlands,' 1 1864, 

 in which the garlands are continued up to that date.]
