Hull Museum Publications, No. 96. Index to Hull Museum 
Publications, Nos. 48-95, by Thomas Sheppard, 1921, price 2d. An 
index to Nos. 1-47 was issued in 1908. The present index has been 
delayed by printing difficulties, and Mr. Sheppard promises another 
shortly, since there are now 123 of these varied but always interesting 
publications, the value of which will be enhanced by the indexes. The 
entries are arranged in simple alphabetical order, which remains, when 
all is said, the most convenient. Key -words, such as ‘ Anglo-Saxon,’ 
and ‘ Axe-head ’ are repeated, though space might have been saved by 
substituting a short rule. The misprints observable will mislead no 
one, but the duplication of entries is not always adequate ; for instance, 
under ‘ Axe Head,’ there should be reference to Ashby, No. 61, p. 20, 
and if ‘ Earl Carrington ’ is to find place as well as ' Carrington, Rt. 
Hon. Lord ’ (which is a mouthful for an index), then he should be credited 
with the same entries. Lord Yarborough, we note, is indexed only 
under ‘ Earl Yarborough.’ Tom Smith, on the other hand, gets in under 
no less [ i.e . fewer] than three heads, but does not score, for the references 
are different in each case. A gentleman with the far more imposing name 
of Justinian Angell appears only under Spurn. Finally, was it really 
necessary to print in successive lines : ‘Zoo, Hull, No. 77, p. 11,’ and 
‘ Zoological Gardens, Hull, No. 77, p. 11 ’ ? Spots on the sun, no doubt ; 
but some of them leave us wondering whether Mr. Sheppard was allowed 
to see a proof. — F.A.B. [He was, by the gracious condescension of the 
printer, and each ‘ corrected ’ proof came back worse than the preceding ; 
so he gave it up. Each copy of the Index cost iod., is ‘ offered ’ for sale 
at 2d., but is actually given away to institutions likely to value it. —

ment. The exhibits comprised books by or relating to Marvell and

War Tracts, prints and other objects illustrating the period. A re- 
markably interesting assemblage.— F.A.B.

make slips ; the sentence should read, ' Marvell was born at Winestead 
in 1621
