* Mr. Lynn, commonly called Billy Lynn, was a yachtsman, very 

 well known at Southampton. An account of a trip in his yacht, the 

 Blue-eyed Maid, is given by Nimrod in the Sporting Magazine, vol. xviii. 

 p. 363. He was a great friend of Mr. G. Thompson of Bishop's Sutton, 

 who sailed with him. Mr. Lynn was very fond of port wine. Nature 

 had given him a very large nose, which was highly coloured. He used 

 to call it his safety-valve, but it became so bad at last that it was 

 obliged to be cut off.
