"dilaited of airt and pairt of the crewall murthour and slauchteris of vmql. Sir Johnne Campbell of Calder, Knycht, com- mittit in Februar, 1591," but the diet was deserted (Pitcairn's 'Criminal Trials,' vol. i. part ii. p. 391). He married first, probably about 1583, Annas (Agnes), daughter of Sir Colin Campbell, sixth of Glenurchy, her " tocher " being 5,000 merks (' Black Book of Taymouth, 3 pp. 25, 29). He married secondly Jeane Hamiltoun, natural daughter of John, first Marquis of Hamilton, and widow of Sir Humphrey Colquhoun of Luss ('House of Hamilton,' p. 131 ; ' Chiefs of Colquhoun,' vol. i. p. 163), described 18 March, 1617, as "Lady Lus, relict of Sir John Campbell of Ardkinglass " (' R.P.C. Scot./ vol. xi. p. 69). He was father of (1) Colin, who succeeded ; (2) Mr. Dougall, mentioned 14 June, 1605 (ibid., vol. vii. p. 604) ; (3) James (probably a son), married, 1628, Anne, daughter of John Bris- bane of Bishopton (Robertson's 'Ayrshire Families,' vol. i. p. 142) ; (4) Robert, first of Rachane (* Book of Dumbartonshire,' vol. ii. p. 280). He died about 1616

8. Sir Colin Campbell of Ardkinglass married, probably about 1616, Mary, daughter of Sir James Sempill of Beltrees (Hamilton of Wishaw's 'Sheriffdoms of Lanark and Renfrew,' p. 123; 'Reg. Mag. Sig., 1634- 1650,' No. 479), by whom he had (1) James, who succeeded ; (2) Margaret, eldest daughter, married (contract dated 2 May, 1634) James Lamond of Inveryne (ibid.) ; and (3) probably the wife of Alexander Macnaughton of that ilk, though Douglas (* Baronage,' p. 419) calls her a daughter of Sir James Campbell of Ardkinglass.

9. James Campbell of Ardkinglass matricu- lated at Glasgow College March, 1633, as eldest son of the Laird of Ardkinglass (' Munimenta,' vol. iii. p. 86), married, pro- bably about 1640, Isobel Campbell, daughter of Sir Robert Campbell, ninth of Glenurchy, with whom he had a "tocher" of 10,000 merks (' Black Book of Taymouth,' p. 91). He was father of Colin, who succeeded, and had probably also a daughter, who married Francis Sempill of Beltrees (Wood's 'Douglas's Peerage,' vol. i. p. 494).

10. Sir Colin Campbell of Ardkinglass was created a baronet 23 March, 1679, with remain- der to the heirs male of his body (Foster's \ M.P.s, Scotland,' p. 49). He was imprisoned in 1684 on a charge of high treason, but nothing seems to have been proved against him (Wodrow's ' History '). After the Revo- lution he represented Argyllshire for several years in the Scots Parliament. He married Helen, daughter of Sir Patrick Maxwell of


Newark (Foster's ' M.P.s, Scot.,' p. 49), and died in April, 1 709 (' Services of Heirs ').

11. Sir James Campbell, second baronet of Ardkinglass, born aoout 1666, was served heir to his father Sir Colin Campbell 2 Feb- ruary, 1711. He married Margaret, daughter of Adam Campbell of Gargunnock, by whom he had one son and eight daughters. He married secondly (marriage contract dated 23 August, 1731) Anne, daughter of John Callander of Craigforth, and widow of Col. John Blackader, without issue. He died 5 July, 1752, when the baronetcy became extinct (Foster's 'M.P.s, Scot.,' p. 55), his only son having been drowned while a young man. The eldest daughter Jane married John Macnaughton of Dunderave, and had one son drowned while a boy ('Records of Argyll,' pp. 47, 499). A younger daughter Helen married Sir James Livingstone of Glentirran, Bart., by whom she had, with other issue, a son James, afterwards Sir James Campbell of Ardkinglass, Bart, (whose son Sir Alexander Campbell of Ardkinglass, Bart., died s.p. 1810), and a daughter Mary, married John Callander of Craigforth, and was great- great-grandmother of the present owner of Ardkinglass and heir of line of the family, George Frederick William Callander of Craig- forth.

ROYAL BOROUGH OF KENSINGTON (9 th S. viii. 82). The Daily Telegraph states, no doubt correctly, that Kensington Palace was taken out of Westminster and put into Ken- sington by the recent revision of boundaries under the London Government Act of 1899.

WHITGIFT'S HOSPITAL, CROYDON (9 th S. vi. 341, 383, 402, 423, 479, 513 ; vii. 178, 256, 358, 450). Belonging as I do to the college founded in Cambridge by Sir Walter Mildmay, I have naturally taken an interest in the Eliza- bethan Puritans, particularly such as were educated at Cambridge ; I refer to Mildmay of Christ's, his friend Laurence Chaderton (Fellow of Christ's), Lever, Cartwright, Fulke, and others. Having noticed that MR. JONAS, in the course of his interesting account of Whitgift's Hospital at Croydon, had fallen into the old error into which others had fallen before him, and had represented Cart- wright as the author of the ' Admonition to Parliament,' I naturally thought there would be no harm in explaining that Cartwright was not really the author of the celebrated 'Admonition,' though several writers had
