City of London, and that portion of the modem County of London which was formerly in the County of Middlesex. The great interest of the collection ies in the contemporary records rather than the historical notes. The history of the Gtntlemaris Magazine period and its contributors is not always accurate, and deductions drawn from it are not always reasonable But the observations of a contemporary upon the facts he is careful to note, even if that observation is clouded by bias or by ignorance in many ways, will allow the modem inquirer to thread his way to the facts which no other kind of material will allow. Every article is printed as in the original, and the notes and references to plates are retained for the use of students who wish to pursue any subject further. T here will be a third volume to complete the collections relating to London, and the index to the three volumes will be included in this. Laurence Gomme. 24, DORSBT Squasb, Novembert
