296 NOTES AND QUERIES. [12 S.X.APRIL is, 1022. Second edition, E. T. P. S. le page printed 22 July 1847." OLDMIXON (10 S. vi. 249, 416 ; x. 237). John Oldmixon, presumably a son of the Somersetshire John Oldmixon, was elected a writer for Bengal on Dec. 7, 1716, his securities being Bees Jones, periwig-maker in Bartholomew Close, and John Oldmixon of Bridgwater, Somerset. He sailed to India in the Cardigan in January, 1717. He rose to be a senior merchant and died in Bengal, where he was buried on March 15, 1735. He appears to have left no will. For particulars of his election and ser- vices see * Court Minutes ' of the E.I. Co. (1716) and ' Bengal Public Consulta- tions ' (E.I. Co.'s MS. Records) ; see also C. R. Wilson's ' Early Annals of Bengal,' vol. iii. L- M. ANSTEY. 'LA SANTA PARENTELA ' (12 S. x. 107, 157, 233). This was a favourite subject with the York school of glass -painting, who seem to have drawn their subjects from the same source as that from which they drew the glass they painted them on, viz., the Rhenish provinces. Three of the panels across the base of the east window of Holy Trinity, Goodramgate, York, which is dated 1470, depict (1) St. Mary Cleophas and her husband Alphseus with their four children, Thaddeus (St. Jude), Simon, James the Less, and Joseph Justus in his mother's arms. One of the children carries a boat and an- other a staff. (2) St. Joachim and St. Anne with their daughter the Blessed Virgin and the Child Jesus. (3) Zebedee and Mary Salome and their two children, James the Great and John Ev. (vide Benson, ' Ancient Painted Glass in York '). A window which has originally contained the same subjects and painted from the same cartoons is in St. Martin-le-Grand, Coney Street, York. Another window in the south aisle of the choir of the Minster shows Zebedee and St. Mary with St. James and St. John, St. Joachim and St. Anne with the Blessed Virgin, and St. Joseph and St. Mary with Jesus. JOHN A. KNOWLES. DESCENDANTS OF RICHABD PENDERELL (12 S. x. 169, 256). In The Observer of July 10 last year, I wrote a letter on the subject of Pendrell, giving, I think, the inscription in the churchyard of St. Giles-in- the-Fields, then badly needing repair. On this inscription the name is spelt " Pendrell " ; but many words in the inscription are chipped. In Griffith's ' History of Tong and Bosco- bel,' in which Thomas Blount's account i related at length, the name is given as " Penderell," which is probably correct. If so spelt on the inscription, which is in verse, it would interfere with the scansion. ARTHUR F. G. LEVESON GOWER. About 25 years ago I copied the following from Add. MS. No. 11,425, British Museum. The extracts are from 'Clement's Church Notes,' taken in 1731, I think under the heading of Northamptonshire; though of course " Whiteladies Chapel," as he calls it, long since a ruin, is in Shropshire, near Shifnal. I was at Boscobel a few years later and tried to find the stones. Upon an ordinary stone at ye East end is this Inscription for ye Mother of the Pendrils so ominsnt [? eminent] for their Loyalty to their Sovereign K. Charles ye 2nd. Here lyeth the Body of a Friend Whom the King did call Dame Joane,* But now she is deceast and^gone Interr'd Anno Do 1669. Near the above : Here lyeth the body of Mary Magdalen wife of Gilbert Morrey daughter of William Pendril who Dep : this life the 25 day of Sept : Anno Dom 1690. HERBERT SOUTHAM. THE REV. GEORGE SACKVILLE COTTER (12 S. x. 251). Brady, ('Clerical Records of Cork, &c.,' vol. ii., p. 231) says that he married Margaret Rogers. Burke's ' Peer- age ' agrees with this. His successor in the rectory of Igtermurragh, diocese of Cloyne, was admitted Sept. 10, 1831, vice Cotter, deceased. H. B. SWANZY. Vicarage, Newry. WATTS PHILLIPS, DRAMATIST, NOVELIST AND ARTIST (12 S. x. 226). A serial en- titled ' Fortune's Wheel : A Story of Ups and Downs,' by Watts Phillips, appeared in No. 903, vol. xxxv., May 31, 1862, of The London Journal. This serial was illustrated by an artist of the name of T. H. Nicholson, possibly the same as the one in question ; anyway a comparison of the two series of illustrations might clear the matter.
