474 NOTES AND QUERIES. [is arx *. 17, im. RAYMENT (ENG.) (12 S. x. 391). A book- plate in my possession bears the following arms : Azure, an eagle displayed, on a chief embattled argent three torteaux. R. E. THOMAS. LONDON INNS : THE COCK IN SUFFOLK STREET (12 S. x. 371). Can it be that W. H. QUARRELL is referring to the Cock Tavern in Bow Street ? It seems to have been Anthony Wood who made public Pepys's (suppressed) account of the events at " The Cock " in Bow Street, in which Sir Charles Sedley played a leading part. Here, also, Sir John Coventry supped before being attacked and getting his nose slit on his way to his house in Suffolk Street. These notes are gathered from Leigh Hunt's ' The Town ' and Cunningham's ' Hand- book,' in the latter of which, under ' Bow Street,' the house in Suffolk Street is stated to be " his brother's," but under ' Suffolk Street,' " his own." Thus all the names but that of Bishop Carleton are found in relation to " The Cock " in Bow Street. WALTER E. GAWTHORP. 16, Long Acre. ADRIAN STOKES (12 S. x. 409). See Wilt- shire Notes and Queries, vol. vi. V. L. O. MOUNT MORGAN (12 S. x. 408). In The Times some years ago there was a very interesting article on this subject entitled 'A Mountain of Gold.' I regret I cannot recall the date. J. DE BERNIERE SMITH. [The article appeared in The Times for Jan. 1, 1 909. J PUDENS (12 S. x. 410). Further refer- ences to Pudens in Martial's ' Epigrams ' will be found in i. 31, v. 48, vi. 58. R. F. ARMS AND CREST : LLANGOLLEN (12 S. x. 410). The first quartering is that borne by Llowdden, Lord of Uch Aeron and his descendants. The three Danish axes were borne by a family named Danes, or Daneys, perhaps descended from Madog Danwr, though the arms borne by him were the black lion of Powys in a border gules entoyre of estoiles. The sun in splendour is borne by many families, but if MR. PRICE finds the par- ticular descendant of Llowdden, Lord of Uch Aeron, the other quarterings will easily be found, as Welsh family pedigrees are well kept. I have not sufficient books here to give him the information. E. E. COPE. HERALDIC : IDENTIFICATION OF ARMS SOUGHT (12 S. x. 410). The arms are Fawsett of South Lincolnshire ; the other Az. a cross engrailed may be either Stough- ton, Baronet (Co. Surrey, Gloucester or Ireland), Stanton, or Staunston all prob- ably the same derivation, but with variants in spelling. Or it may be Tindall, a Scotch family. I believe it to be the first. A pedigree of the family will confirm my suggestion. I quote from my private Heraldic Dictionary. E. E. COPE. The arms inquired for are those of the Fawset family of Bellingsby, in Lincolnshire, impaling Stoughton of Sussex and Surrey, &c. I am not able to trace the connexion between the two families. H. J. B. CLEMENTS. "DOWLE" (12 S. x. 209). This term seems to be used of a r6om that was adjacent to the " great and middle chambers " of a mansion, and so may be taken to denote a chamber divided from another room, as in the case of a dressing room ; see ' N.E.D.,' s.v. " dole 1 ," signification 8. It might, however, signify a mourning parlour or room in which a corpse was laid out, according to " doles," from Fr. deuil, grief ; though the dictionary does not give an example of such usage. X. H. " INTUE " (12 S. x. 410). There are four quotations for this verb in the ' N.E.D.,' the first dated 1860. There are also "intuem," what is intued (1860); " in- tuence," insight (1616); and " intuent," that knows by intuition (1865). J. T. F. Winterton, Lines. This verb may be a bastard coinage, but surely the writer quoted meant more than " perceive." Intuition as a theological term means instinctive or at least immediate, penetration of truth. And " to intue " is not a much uglier word than " to intuit," which would seem to be the alternative. A. T. M. The first quotation in the ' N.E.D.' for this word is from W. G. Ward's * Nature and Grace,' i. 40 (1860). Vaughan's ' Life and Labours of St. Thomas of Aquino ' was, I believe, not published until 1870. The word apparently had some vogue for a time, as shown by other quotations in the ' N.E.D.' The ' Life of M. M. Hallahan ' (1869) referred to it as a modern coinage ; The Contemporary Review, in December, 1874, quoted it as one
