His daughter, Louisa Kendall, married Silvanus Bevan, banker, of Lombard Street, in 1773, and on their marriage certificate Henry Kendall is described also as a banker, but no further particulars regarding his parentage, &c., are known.

It was built of timber with tiled roof and stood between the wide pavement and the wide road. It | was probably built before the middle of the eighteenth century, on the waste land at Mile End.

THE astonishing number of references to periodicals in ' N. & Q.' induced me some time ago to prepare an index to titles where information of historical use is given, and on comparing this with the ' Tercentenary List ' some very considerable additions can be made. In the following list I have included only those periodicals which have been dated. (Among those omitted are the titles of 27 Regimental magazines given 8 S. x. 214, but without dates.) It has been carefully checked with the indexes in the *T.L.' though the occasional erratic arrangement of these makes it difficult to be positive that a title has not been over- looked. The numerous additional titles of the years 1712 to 1731 are due to the lists printed in ' N. & Q.,' 3 S. ix., which were prepared by MR. WM. LEE mainly from the list in Nichols's ' Anecdotes,' iv. 33-97, though he added a number from his own knowledge. In many cases where I have omitted periodicals already in ' T.L.' there is useful information (earlier dates, &c.) given, but to have included this would have taken more space than might be allowed. The dates appear as they are found in
