VI. — The Ancient Styles mid Titles of the Cornish Boroughs.- 

 Bt E. N. Worth, F.G.S., Cor. Mem. 



A LITTLE wMle since an old law book treating of the laws 

 and customs of English corporations, printed in 1702, and 

 enriched by numerous M.S. notes, came into my hands. Among 

 other things it contains a list of the official titles of the various 

 municipal corporations ; and from this, as a small but quaint 

 contribution to our local history, I extract the passages which 

 refer to Cornwall.
