About the year mentioned (1852) there
was an exhibition of a Panorama of the
Overland Route to India, at the Gallery of
Illustration in Regent Street, London." It
consisted of a series of very effective and
well-painted views of the principal sights to
be seen on a journey from England to India
by the mail route. A running commentary
was supplied by a guide who stood on the
stage by the "side of the pictures. The
Panorama was shown by artificial light, and
the audience was seated. Some of the
effects were most successful. I remember
one of the mail steamer blowing off steam
after arrival at Alexandria. I cannot say
whether the pictures were transparent or
not, but I think some of them, at least, must
have been. A printed guide-book was sold
in the Gallery, of oblong shape with illus-
trations of many of the pictures in outline.
It was a popular and refined entertainment,
and no doubt was noticed in leading
London newspapers of that time.

DEDICATION OF LADY CHAPEL (US. xii. 160). In churches dedicated to the Virgin, as the collegiate Southwell, as well as in the monastic Tewkesbury, an additional or popular altar of Our Lady was provided away from the high altar. Of the cathedrals dedicated to the B.V.M., Lincoln has, properly, no Lady Chapel ; but Lady Chapels are found at Chester, Hereford, Salisbury, and Worcester. A. R. BAYLEY/
The Abbey Church at Tewkesbury was dedicated to the Blessed Virgin Mary St. Mary and until the Reformation there was a Lady Chapel at the extreme east end. This chapel was in course of reconstruction at the time of the dissolution of monasteries, and was later on entirely destroyed (see ' The Abbey Church of Tewkesbury,' &c., by H. J. L. J. Masse, London, George Bell & Sons, 1909). HENRY HOWARD.
THE KNOLL YS FAMILY (US. xii. 141). Sir Francis K., Treasurer of Queen Eliza- beth's Household, married Catherine, daughter of William Carey, esquire of th^ body to Henry VIII., by Mary, daughter of Sir Thomas Boleyn, Earl of Wiltshire. His father Robert Knollys (d. 1521) is said by Dugdale to have been descended from Sir Robert Knollys or Knolles (d. 1407) the soldier, but this is an error. Sir Francis's fx-digree cannot be authentically traced beyond Sir Thomas K., Mayor of London in 1399 and 1410, from whom Sir Francis's I'M t her was fifth in descent. Sir Robert,
the military commander, left no legitimate
male heirs, and it is very doubtful whether
he was even, as some have supposed, the
father of Emme or Margaret Knolles, who
married John Babington of Aldrington,
Devon. A. R. BAYLEY.

LONDON PRINTERS (11 S. xii. 139). (Thomas) Hive, Aldersgate Street, is included in a list of printers issued by William Bowyer in White-Friars, 1724. See Timperley's ' Dic- tionary of Printers,' 1839, p. 632. A note is appended to his name : " This was the father of Jacob, Abraham, and Isaac Hive, who were all printers, and of w T hom notices will be given hereaiter." I can, however, find a notice only of Jacob Hive, who died 1768. See p. 718. I am aware that the < D.N.B.' gives 1763 as the date of his death.

2. Thomas Hive, of Aldersgate Street,, was, I suppose, identical with one of those " said to be highflyers " (see ' Negus's List/ 1724, in Nichols, Lit. Anecd.,' i. 309), who married Elizabeth (born 1669, died 29 Aug., 1733), daughter of Thomas James, printer ; and was father of Jacob Hive (1705-63), printer, letter-founder, and author (vide ' D.N.B.,' xxviii. 414), of Abraham (died at Oxford, 1777), and of Isaac Ilive, also printers.

ST. ANDREW: NATIONAL COLOURS (11 S* xii. 49, 110). Your correspondent B. D.'s query as to what colour was connected with St. Andrew as patron saint of Scotland, accompanied by the statement that " bhie was formerly worn at St. George's tide," opens up the no less interesting question as to what extent the colours connected with the patron saints of the L T nited Kingdom agree with or differ from those which also might fairly be considered as national colours, being associated with the armorial insignia of the several nations composing that king- dom. In this connexion I do not include the Royal livery colours, which may be said to be more affected by the several sovereigns or Royal houses in their individual capacity, though these again generally bear some relation to their armorial insignia.
Our national saints St. George for Eng- land, St. Andrew for Scotland, and St. Pat- rick for Ireland have each his well-known Order : the Garter, -the Thistle, and St. Pat- rick. I do not here include Wales, which is a Principality merely, and the subject, a&
