WAINEWRIGHT in his note upon Thomas Founde, S.J. (ante, p. 184), made some statements about these visits which are not altogether accurate. He spoke of two visits paid by Elizabeth to Winchester, and assigned the first to August, 1562, and the second to the year 1570. These dates need further consideration, and as the subject has not much to do with Pounde, it can be dealt with more conveniently under a fresh heading. 1. The first visit occurred in the August of 1560 (Nichols, ' Progresses,' i. 87, edition of 1823), and not in that of 1562. ME. WAINEWRIGHT evidently got the date wrong by misreading Nichols. The Queen's letters or 22 August, 1560, were written from Winchester ('Cal. S.P. Foreign, 1560-1,' p. 253). 2. A second visit, which may have been paid in the course of a journey northward, perhaps occurred in September, 1569. OB IK: 9th of that month the Queen was at Southampton ('Cal. Southampton Corpora-
- ion MSS.,' 18), whither she had come from
Titchfield ; and by the 22nd she was at the Pyne, near Basingstoke (Nichols, i. 258-62): Unless she chose some roundabout route,
- he details of which do not seem to be re-
corded, she must have passed, on her way to
- he Vyne, through Winchester, even if she
- here made no halt. I have not found any
evidence of her presence in the city upou
- his occasion ; but the Bodleian apparently
jossesses a MS. account of the expenses of >reparing "lady Masson's house" for the Queen's reception in 1569. See 'Index, Cat. MSS. Rawl., Bodl., Parts I. and II.,' ). 976. Was this lady the widow of Sir John klason, Knt, who enjoyed the deanery of Vinchester in Edward VI.'s reign ? 3. There is an entry in the Winchester 'ollege accounts for the year 1570 (so it is aid) of wine and money given to the I'ucs'u's minstrels (tibicines). Out of this utry historians of the College have con- tructed a visit in 1570 by the Queen herself, ,nd they have ascribed to this visit, which believe to be imaginary, some proceeding* /hich, as I propose to show, occurred really
