The following may be added to MR. FRY'S list. In default of special bibliographies, references to lists in some of the county histories, &c., are given. Some of the public libraries have published special lists of their county collections, and most have separate sections in their catalogues. Mr. Courtney's ' Register of National Biblio- graphy ' should be consulted. To this most useful work I am indebted for some of my information.
