MB. HENRY HTJCKS GIBBS (later raised to
the peerage as first Baron Aldenham) con-
tributed a fairly full and very interesting
account of the family of Rachel Floud
Izaak Walton's first wife to ' N. & Q.'
(4 S. xii. 382-4) ; and he shows in the
pedigree of the Lloyd line his own descent
from her father William Lloyd (or Floud),
who married Susanna Cranmer, and also
that one of his ancestors was Thomas
Crawley, one of the three witnesses to the
will of the old angler.
Everybody save MB. MARSTON styles the Bishop the youngest son, but doubtless Martin was the youngest, as 1640 is given as the date of his baptism. It is not known when the Bishop was baptized, as the register of births of the parish of Little Berkham- sted does not begin until 1647.

Adding the pedigree given at the last reference to information from sources stated below, we have the following pedigree, from which, if correct, it is clear that Walton's first wife was his first cousin once removed.
But in connexion with so kindly may
I say so fraternal ? a man as Walton can
we be sure from John and Robert Floud' s
calling him " brother " that they were his
brothers-in-law ? See Bailey (or Bayley or
Bagley ) and Cotton. Are the precise relation-
ships of the three brothers and three sisters
named in the will known ? S. S. BAGSTER.
If MR. L. H. CHAMBERS will refer to my book ' Thomas Ken and Izaak Walton,' p. 102, he will find some further information about Rachel Floud, Walton's first wife, supplied to 'N. & Q.' of 15 Nov., 1873 (4 S. xii. 382), by MR. HENRY HUCKS GIBBS, from which I quoted. E. MARSTON.

RICHARD ROLLE'S ' PRICK OF CON-
SCIENCE ': 'THE BRITISH CRITIC' (11 S.
iii. 227, 277, 377, 417, 458). Bibliography
presents many pitfalls for the unwary,
among them carelessness and a reliance
on second-hand authorities. The former
is responsible for my error in writing The
British Magazine, and Quarterly Theo-
logical Review, when I ought to have written
The British Critic, and Quarterly Theological
Review ; and I am obliged to MR. HIGHAM
for enabling me to make the correction.
But has not MR. HIGHAM himself also fallen into an error> due to relying on second-hand authority ? He says: " Com- menced in May, 1793, The British Critic continued to appear, but with some varia- tions of title, until the end of 1852, ' a grand total of 109 volumes.' ' This statement is evidently quoted, though from whom or what is not stated. The Boston Athenaeum has what appears to be a complete set of The British Critic except a single volume, which I take to have been the final volume (vol, xxxiv., 1843) ; and of that volume there is a copy in the Boston Public Library. An examination of this set shows the follow- ing changes in title and in numbering of volumes :
The British Critic, A New Review. Vols. I. -II. 1793. The British Critic, New Series. Vol. III. 1794. The British Critic, A New Review. Vols. IV. -XII.
1794-8.
The British Critic. Vols. XIII. -XLII. 1799-1813. The British Critic, New Series. Vols. I. -XXIII.
1814-25.
The British Critic. Vols. I. -III. 1826. The British Critic, Quarterly Theological Review
and Ecclesiastical Record. Vols. I. -XXII.
1827-37. (As stated in my previous reply, the
numbering of issues and it was this feature
that puzzled Miss HOPE ALLEN began with
vol. i., 1827. ) The British Critic, and Quarterly Theological
Review. Vols. XXIII. -XXXIV.' 1838-43.
