captured at Arundel, and imprisoned at Westminster, in the Gatehouse, July, 1580. He was still there in April, 1584. He pro- bably died in prison in 1590. (Cf. Chetham Society's Publ., vol. iv., pp. Ixxxi, Ixxxii.) JOHN B. WAINEWRIGHT.

ARMS ON STONE ENTABLATURE. I should be very grateful if any one could tell me to what Hampshire family the following arms belonged : Vair, Crest, on a torse a bear's head couped, helmet and mantlings. In the upper corners of the stone are the initials I. C. or J. C. Date probably fifteenth or sixteenth century. The property, Tylney Hall, at one time belonged to Earl Tylney.

LEONARD C. PRICE.

Essex Lodge, Ewell.

THOMAS BAILLIE. I seek genealogical details of the ancestry and marriage of Thomas Baillie of the East India Company's Service, Bengal Presidency, who was a cadet in 1764, ensign in August, 1766, captain Dec. 4, 1772, and died Feb. 25, 1799 ; also of Thomas Baillie, surgeon, 1793, in Ross-shire Buffs (Scotch Regiment of Foot). He died in 1806. Also of a Colonel Thomas Baillie, who died in India between 1800 and 1825. Is it possible that one of them was a son of Thomas Baillie, a collateral of Lamington, by his wife Miss Gordon ?

JAMES SETON-ANDERSON.

4 Temple Street, Brighton.

JOHN WILLIAM FLETCHER. This per- sonage for a time was at the head of Lady Huntington's theological college at Trefecca, Breconshire, but left on account of his Arminian views. He was on terms of cordial intimacy and corresponded with the Wesley s. Was he related to the saintly Rev. John Fletcher of Madeley ? Gleaned knowledge will be esteemed.

ANEURIN WILLIAMS.

Menai View, North Road, Carnarvon.

WILSON OF WESTMORLAND AND CUMBER- LAND. Thomas Wilson, a member of this family, migrated to Ireland in 1654, having married Mary Bewley of Woodhal . Is there any pedigree of the family extant which shows his name ? He was at Dacre in Cumberland, apparently, before his migra- tion. Was Joseph Wilson, called to the Irish Bar, Hilary Term, 1792 (B.A. of Trinity College, Dublin, 1788), his great- grandson ? Where can I find information regarding the Wilson family of Edenderry, King's County, Ireland ?

H. WILBERFORCE-BELL.

21 Park Crescent, Oxford.


UNFINISHED ELEVENTH - CENTURY LAW CASE. In Sir Mountstuart Grant Duff's ' Diary ' (1889-1891), vol. i., p. 219, it is stated that Mr. Elton told him that he was then (February, 1890) engaged in a case not yet finished which had begun in the days of William Rufus. The question then turned upon the right to lands in the county of Durham. Can any one supply further particulars ? LAWRENCE PHILLIPS.

Lichfield

CRUSADERS' NAMES. The query in your September issue (p. 236) raises the hope that some reader may know if any list exists of those who accompanied Bishop Peter de Rupibus of Winchester and Bishop William Briwer of Exeter on the Crusade during which they were absent from their dioceses for nearly five years, 12281233. Are there any such lists preserved at Rome ? HUGH R. WATKIN.

Torquay.

ARMY OFFICERS' OBITUARY, 1727-60: MURRAY : COLVILLE. Are there any works or lists of monumental inscriptions, that would give any references to army officers who died between the years 1727 and 1760, in America or the West Indies, especially in Jamaica, during the Carthagena expedition, 1741-42, and subsequent campaigns in America. For instance, can any one say who was the Lord Edward Murray pre- sumed to have died in Jamaica (query the exact date) in 1734 ; or give the precise date of death of John, 7th Lord Colville during the Carthegena expedition of 1741 ?
