The Inns Of Devizes. In the Devizes Gazette of April 26th, May, 

 3rd, May 10th, and May 31st, 1900, are a series of articles by Mr. E. Kite, 

 in which a great amount of facts and pleasant gossip as to the history 

 of the various Inns of Devizes in past times has been got together. 

 Amongst other things Mr. Kite gives a list of the public-houses in the 

 town in 1766, when they numbered forty-one. The Bear Hotel appears 

 to have existed for more than three centuries. In the issue of May 31st 

 Mr. Cecil Simpson adds further notes on the subject. 



Historical Documents in Wiltshire, a valuable memo 



randum on this subject, drawn up by Mr. F. N. Bogers, Chairman of the 

 Wilts County Council Committee on Charities and Becords, is printed in 

 Devizes Gazette, May 17th, 1900. The report gives a classified list of 

 , the various classes of documents preserved at the County Becord Office, 

 Devizes, a building attached to the Assize Courts. These records, which 

 begin with the reign of James I., are a most valuable series, and are now 

 being dealt with by the Historical Manuscripts Commission. The report 

 does not recommend the forcible carrying off of parochial and other 

 records from their own localities and custodians to this or any other 

 central record office — but it contemplates the future enlargement of this 

 County Becord Office, and its becoming gradually more used as a place 

 of safe custody for many ancient records and documents in private as 

 well as in public hands.
