in Ireland,' the opening lines of which give
a good account of the study, then " much
the same." This article was expanded
into an octavo volume, pp. xi-j-263, and
published by Kegan Paul in 1883. Canon
Hayman's ' Account of the Present State of
Youghal Church. . . . and Sir Walter Raleigh's
House' (Youghal, n.d.), enlarged from an
article in The Topographer and Genealogist
for March, 1847, gives fuller architectural
details. This account was again reprinted
in ' The Illustrated Guide to St. Mary's
Collegiate Church .... at Youghal, co. Cork '
(Youghal, 1861), with a woodcut view of the
house. The same author supplied the de-
scription of the house and grounds which
appeared in ' The Blackwater in Munster,'
by J. R. O'Flanagan, London, 1844, 4to.

There is a short account of ' Ralegh's House, Youghal,' exterior and interior, by Mr. G. H. Orpen, in the Journal of the Royal Society of Antiquaries of Ireland for 1903 (vol. xxxiii. pp. 310-12).

I believe that the present occupier is Sir Henry Blake, formerly Governor of Jamaica. The estate is known as Myrtle Grove. R. J. FYNMORE.
My impression is that a description of this interesting house (which I remember visiting in the summer of 1891) has been printed in Devon Notes and Queries. Possibly the following may be found useful : Dr. T. N. Brushfield's papers in the Transactions of the Devonshire Association ; ' Raleghana,' Parts I- VIII. (1896, 1898, 1900, 1902-7) ; ' Sir Walter Ralegh and his " History of the World " ' (1887) ; and 'Ralegh Miscellanea,' Parts I. and II. (1909-10).

Miss HOWARD AND NAPOLEON III. (US. iv. 347, 430). I am informed that the correct name of this lady was Elizabeth Ann Harryett or Haryett, and that she was born at Brighton about the year 1823. The following entry is the only one in the register of the Brighton Parish Church at that period that can possibly have any reference to her : " 23 Oct., 1822. Elizabeth, dau. of Henry and Elizabeth Herriott, Preston in this County, Brewer." Is this the register of baptism of the celebrated Miss Howard ? HORACE BLEACKLEY.
'THE INTELLIGENCER' (11 S. iv. 407).
This was the title of a halfpenny weekly
paper published at Dublin, and written
almost entirely by Swift and his friend
Thomas Sheridan. It began in 1728, and
ran to twenty numbers, coming to an end
in the early part of 1729. Swift speaks of it
in a letter to Pope of 6 March, 1728/9
(Pope's ' Works,' ed. Elwin and Courthope,
vol. vii. p. 145) : " a paper which Dr. Sheridan
had engaged in, called The Intelligencer, of
which he made but sorry work, and then
dropped it." The first collected edition
appeared in London in 1729 ; the second,
to which MR. W. NORMAN refers, " by the
author of ' A Tale of a Tub,' " in 1730.
Some account of The Intelligencer is given
on p. 60 of that useful work the ' Catalogue
of the Hope Collection of Early Newspapers
and Essayists in the Bodleian,' where it is
stated that Nos. 1, 3, 5, 7, 9, and some verses
in 8 and at the end of 10, 15, and 19, were
written by Swift. EDWARD BENSLY.
The first number" appeared on 11 May,
1728. Swift describes his connexion with it in a letter to Pope dated 12 June, 1731. A reprint of the first nineteen numbers (the first English edition) appeared in London in
1729. The title-page describes it as " Re- printed and sold by A. Moor in St. Paul's Churchyard, and the Booksellers of London and Westminster. 1729." Swift's contribu- tions are reprinted in the edition of his ' Prose Works ' edited by Temple Scott (Bell & Sons). M. A. M. MACALISTER.
Halkett and Laing say that it was by Thomas Sheridan and Dean Swift, printed at Dublin (no date), reprinted in London, 1729, 8vo, pp. 4, b. t., 217, in 20 numbers. The first, third, fifth, seventh, part of eighth, ninth, tenth, fifteenth, and nineteenth are by Swift ; the rest by Sheridan.

HENRY FENTON JADIS (11 S. iv. 410). This is probably the individual whose claim to the Gardner peerage was rejected by the House of Lords in 1825. Alan Hyde Gardner (afterwards Lord Gardner), a captain R.N., married Maria Elizabeth Adderly. During her husband's absence on duty in the West Indies in 1802, she became the mistress of Henry Jadis, Esq., and on 8 December, 1802, gave birth to Henry Fenton, who was baptized as the son of Capt. Gardner. At Easter, 1804, Capt. Gardner brought an action against Henry
