substances ; hence it appears that the whole area over which the Carnon 

 stream extends, was originally covered by the tide, against which an em- 

 bankment was formed in order to secure~the ore which lay below. The late

" The Mayor's Cup. This silver cup, very massive, and more than two 

 feet high, was presented to the Corporation of the Borough of Penryn by 

 Lady Jane Killigrew, whose "great misery" seems to have originated in her 

 own base conduct. According to Hals, whilst this country was engaged in a 

 war with Spain, two Dutch ships belonging to the Hanse Towns, always free 

 traders in times of war, were driven into Falmouth Harbour by contrary 

 winds. They were laden with merchandise, the property, it was thought, of 

 the Spaniards. To secure some part of this valuable booty. Lady Jane, 

 attended by a party of ruffians, boarded the vessels, murdered the Spanish 

 merchants, their owners, and seizing two hogsheads of Spanish pieces of 

 eight, carried them on shore and converted them to her own use. For this 

 offence her accomplices were taken into custody, tried, condemned, and 

 executed ; whilst her ladyship, through the interest which she was enabled 

 to make, found means to evade the sentence of the law, and, amid the exe- 

 crations of the unhappy wretches whom her artifices had brought to the 

 gallows, she fled for protection to the inhabitants of Penryn. Lady Jane 

 was divorced from her husband, and died in the year 1648."
