speak of him as a " luniac," which impliec
that he had in him all the essential defects
of a lunatic and a maniac.

Thackeray, in 'The Paris Sketch-Book,' a few paragraphs from the beginning, writes :
" You see the steward and his boys issuing from their den under the paddle-box, with each a heap of round tin vases, like those which are called, ] believe, in America expectoratoons, only these are larger.' 5
In the next paragraph he describes the steward as the " expectoratoonifer," and a few lines later calls the basin an "instru- mentoon." CHAS. A. BERNATJ.
"Pomato," "plumcot," are words invented by Luther Burbank, the noted Calif ornian horticulturist. "Pomato," in name and nature, is a hybrid of potato and tomato, "plumcot" of plum, and apricot. If these fruits prove permanent and popular, no doubt their names will be adopted and registered in the dictionaries.

As to "drownded" (where the hyphen, if used, should follow the second d), an excres cent final d may be pardoned to the un- educated, as we write "sound" for soun (Fr. son, Lat. sonus), "homeward-bound" fov-boun (Icel. 5mVm), and, not so long ago, wrote "swound" for sivoon. To "drownd" is, or was, the regular word among rustics in the South ; and to this day the man who lifts the sluices to flood the water meadows is called the "drownder."
A portmanteau word has lately received acceptance " Bakerloobe" = Baker Street + Waterloo + tube. H. P. L.
[The last instance is frequently shortened to " Bakerloo." We cannot spare further space for this subject.]
BURY FAMILY (10 th S. v. 349, 396, 437). Thomas Bury, Esq., of "Colliton," Devon, married Elizabeth, first dau. of Sir Arthur Chichester (3rd Bt.) by Elizabeth Drewe, of Grange, Devon. Their children were : 1, Anne, who married first Sir Win. Morrice (3rd Bt.), of Wellington, Devon, and secondly Rich. Bennet, Esq., of Hexworthy, Cornwall; 2, Thomas, who married "Mary Molineux, late of Winchester Close, living at Bath, 1772 " ; 3, Anna Maria ; 4, Florence.
These details are from a MS. book of Founder's Kin pedigrees belonging to Win- chester College, and were probably entered in it about 1772 ; but some portions of the book appear to be of considerably earlier dates. The above-mentioned Mary (Moli-
neux), wife of Thomas Bury, was probably
the " Mrs. Berry " who was interred in
Winchester Cathedral in 1787 ; and it seems
not unlikely that she was related to Francis
Molineux, Esq., who died on 22 Oct., 1733,
and was buried in the Cathedral on 1 Nov.
His widow was buried there on 2 Aug., 1752.
See 'Hampshire Parish Registers' (Philli-
more & Co.), vol. iv., whence other par-
ticulars of the Molineux family may be
gleaned.
The family of Chichester became Founder's Kin at the College through the marriage of Sir John Chichester (1st Bt.) with his second
wife, Mary, widow of Warcup, a London
merchant, and dau . of Theodore Colley, LL.D., sometime "Registrar of ye Bishop of London." Her parentage is not given in G. E. C 's
- Baronetage,' ii. 120 ; and I am glad to be
able to add this detail, from the College MS. book, to the account of the Chichester family printed in G. E. C.'s invaluable work. The said Theodore Colley (who was buried at Georgham, Devon, 4 Dec., 1676) is entered in the book as a son of Sir Anthony Colley, of Glaiston, Ruts., Kt., by Anne, third dau. of Sir Wm. Turpin, of Knaptoft, Leic., Kt, and Elizabeth, sister of Sir Richard Fiennes, first Lord Saye and Sele under the letters patent of 1603, who was admitted as a Founder's Kin scholar of the College in 1569.

BASKISH INSCRIPTIONS IN NEWFOUNDLAND (10 th S. v. 328). Some epitaphs in Baskish can be seen in the old churchyard at Placentia. I have lost my copy of them ; but this hint may help further inquiry. M. N. G.
ORDER OF THE ROYAL OAK (10 th S. v. 449). Some interesting editorial information was given in reply to a similar query in 2 nd S. i. 455. ALFRED F. ROBBINS.
CATEATON STREET (10 th S. v. 429, 475, 497). The passage from Stow quoted by MR. McMuRRAY at p. 475 is not the only reference to Cateaton Street in Stow's 'Survey.' In the chapter on Cheap Ward (p. 261, ed. 1603) Stow twice refers to it as " Catton streete."
In the Guildhall copy of Aggas's map it is called " Ketton street," but the name is not given in Vertue's copy nor in Faithorne's map. In Ryther's map, circa 1608, it is spelt " Cateaten streete," and also in Porter's map, circa 1660. In Leake's map, 1666, it is "Cat Eaton Street." In Ogilby and Morgan's map, 1677, we find the form ** Catteaton Street," and in Morden and Lea's map, 1682, "Cateaton Street "; and the latter is the form given in subsequent maps up to and including those of 1844, after which date, as stated by MR,
