NOTES AND QUERIES. [11 s. x. jow 25, 191*.


ARMS IN HATHERSAGK CHURCH. The arms reproduced below appear on a shield on the porch of Hathersage Church, Derby- shire, and also on the font. Those on the porch are very much weather -worn and difficult to decipher, but on the font they are perfectly distinct. As no tinctures are shown, and it is difficult to say what the two charges like trefoils with long stems are meant to be, it is not possible to describe the arms in heraldic terms. The chevron being placed over them also seems curious.


Identification of the arms is much desired, as they have, I believe, puzzled many archaeologists. They will be connected in some way with the family of Eyre, and identification would probably lead to the discovery of the name of the wife of an early member of the family.

FACE. Can any of your readers identify the authors of the following works quoted by Allibone ?

1. John Fage : ' Speculum Egrotorum : The Sick Man's Glass ' (London, 1606 and 1638).

2. Mary Fage : ' Fame's Boule ' (London, 1637).

FRENCH HUGUENOT REGIMENTS IN ENG- LISH SERVICE, 1689-1725. Can any one tell me whether there are anywhere in exist- ence rolls of the commissioned and non- commissioned officers of the French Hugue- not regiments raised and maintained in the reigns of King William III. and Queen Mary II. and Queen Anne ? If so, do such rolls contain the Christian names as well as the surnames of such officers, and is information as to pensions or casualties on service likely to be obtained from them ? In the work entitled ' Protestant Exiles from France in the Reign of Louis XIV.,' compiled about thirty years ago by the late Rev. David C. A. Agnew, there is a


chapter devoted to the ' French Regiments,' and lists of names are given therein ; but Mr. Agnew offers no indication as to the sources from which the information he gives was derived, and it is not possible, therefore, to verify what he writes. F. DE H. L.

LIBRARY WANTED. Where can I obtain access to the ' Select Essays ' and other works of Sir James Paget, and also to such books as Mr. Howard Marsh's ' Memoir ' and Miss Putnam's ' Bibliography ' ? There are twenty-one books under the heading ' Paget r at the B.M. ; these do not include the hospital reports, &c. Dr. Williams's Library possesses the ' Life ' only. I have tried several ordinary libraries. I need the books for a literary purpose, and at home. I shall be most grateful for any suggestion.
