Ayrton then proceeds in an extremely
amusing manner to demolish the whole
story. The memorial to Powel at Whit-
church was not erected until 1835, as is
recorded on the inscription, a copy of which
is printed in 2 S. xii. 228. So far as my
researches have gone, they confirm the
impression that the story originated about
the above year ; but I shall be most grateful
to any reader who can furnish me with an
authoritative reference of earlier date.

HATS.
(11 S. x. 149.)
WHAT G. M. means by saying
" that a member of Parliament, before addressing the Speaker or the Chair, puts on his hat, while the Speaker remains bare-headed or bare-wigged,"
is not clear.
The Speaker is as above described in all circumstances. If a member wants to address the House in a speech, supposed to be addressed to the Speaker, beginning with such words as " Mr. Speaker, Sir," or " Mr. Speaker," his hat has no part in the matter, unless it be that the member thinks that he has a better chance of " catching the Speaker's eye " by the sudden removal of his hat. Sometimes a member puts on his hat in preparation for that purpose.
Of course the member must be bare- headed when he addresses the House. He need not, however, have his hat with him. Formerly most members, other than Ministers, Opposition Front Bench men, and Whips, wore their hats when seated in the House.
