and D.D. of that University, and having been appointed to the college living and vicariate at Enfield only the year before his father's death there. His grandson, also a Robert Uvedale, D.D.,was the third member of the family in direct succession to hold a fellow- ship at Trinity (is not this a record in such matters ?) ; whilst his great-grandson, Rev. Robert Uvedale, M.A., was also a member of Trinity, though neither a fellow nor a doctor. With him the direct male issue of the botanist may be said to have become extinct, though his youngest son, Samuel, became the father of Samuel Uvedale, Rear-Admiral of the Blue, who rendered good service under Rodney in the French wars, and died in 1808 without issue. He lived at Bosmere, co. Suffolk, and is said to have had in his possession there a portrait in oils of both the botanist arid of his wife. It would be interesting to know what became of these pictures. Mr. Algernon Ashton, another representative of a female descendant of the botanist, has in his possession a small portrait in oils of the Dr. Robert Uvedale, Vicar of Enfield, who died there in 1731, together with a very interesting old ma- hogany or walnut secretaire, which to this day is known to him as " the Vicar's cabinet." Mr. Ashton also owns another portrait, attributed to Sir Joshua Reynolds, of his great -grandmother, the wife of the botanist's grandson, the Rev. Robert Uvedale, D.D., and one of the sisters of Bennet Langton the younger, already referred to.

There is no doubt that several of the family portraits have passed to representa- tives of female lineal descendants of the botanist of whom several still survive and I know that not many years ago a sale of Uvedale and other portraits of value took place upon the death of one of these de- scendants, when, I am afraid, the pictures were more or less dispersed. It would be a great thing if this long and somewhat discursive article of mine should result in the recovery of the original portrait of the botanist for the National Portrait Gallery.
