The author held an office in the jar, found in a Danish fort in the county of Custom-house at Whitby until 173). The Limerick, reminded me that in levelling a poem is adverted to in a letter in the Adrath, or as it is popularly called, a Danish denda to Gent's History of Hull; and is fort (for I believe they were the residence of also mentioned in Gough's Topography, the Irish, and not of the Danes,) about the rol. ii. p. 449. year 1810, at my late father's residence of Mr. F.

C. it is not my intention to enter into any controversy. am quite content that my works which are before the public, should speak for themselves, and be put in comparison with any others erected upon a similar scale of expense; and any serious refutation of the remarks of E. I. C. is unne cessary, as, fortunately for the objects of his attack, he carries his aptidote with him. As he has thought proper to venture upon detail, and grossly to misrepresent facts, I deem it right that you should be made acquainted with that circumstance. The following may suffice as a sample. Speaking of the groined ceiling of the Lambeth Chapel, E. I. C. remarks, 'The three aisles are of equal altitude, consequently the centre, which is broader than the lateral divisions, forms an angle more obtuse than the others.' The aisles are ont of equal height, the side aisles being 29 ft. 6 in., aud the center 35 ft. 9 in., and the angle of the ceiling of the nave, instead of being more obtuse than the others, is exactly the reverse, or more acute. So much for the accuracy of E. I. C.” It strikes me as being more in character Mag. in July 1897, R.
