Poss THE COMMCN SEALS OF CORNWALL. 
' MILLBROOK. 
Boroucu.—According to the old divisions Millbrook, near 
Mount Edgcumbe, was partly in Devon and partly in Cornwall. 
Browne Willis mentions it as once a borough, and Hals says that 
it sent members temp. Henry VIII, but was excused continuing 
on account of its poverty. There are no returns in the Public 
Record Office by which this may be tested; but I am indebted to 
Mr. Deeble Boger for putting me on the track of an evidence of 
former corporate life that cannot be gainsaid,—the corporate seal, 
the present holder of which styles himself the borough reeve. 
The seal is circular, 14 inches diameter; with a mill standing in 
a brook for a device. The brook runs through a woody country, 
and dogs are scattered among the trees. Legend: px * SIGIL- 
LVM * DE * MILBROOKIA* This is the first time that the 
existence of this seal has been put upon record. 
MICHELL. 
Michell, alias Modishole, represented from the reign of Edward 
VI until 1832, never had either corporation, arms, or seal! 
MARAZION. 
Boroucu.—This little borough, the name of which has been 
the occasion of so much controversy, was incorporated by Elizabeth 
in 1595. Itis said to have returned members. There are two 
seals with the same device, one of metal, and the other, of later 
date, of ivory. In other respects they are similar. Circular 1,5, 
in. diam. Device: arude castle, with central and flanking towers. 
Legend: 5 SIGILL. MAIORIS. VILLE. ET. BOROV. DE. 
MARGHASION. 
NEWPORT. 
Newport by Launceston, as Michell, never had either corpora- 
tion, arms, or seal; though it sent members from Ed. VI to 1832. 
This borough, like Launceston, is occasionally called Dunheved. 
Indeed if Carew [‘‘Survey,” p. 90] is to be followed, and the 
earliest indentures of return, it would seem to have really the 
better right to the name.
