"A la Caroline": Collegium Carolinum (12 S. i. 349).—This was a foundation of the prodigal Duke Charles (1735-80) in 1745; in 1862 it was transformed into a Polytechnikum, and a new building erected, which was completed in 1877. The college was formally a high school, famed for its good teaching, and known in French-speaking circles, that means in better German society, under the name of "La Caroline." S. Reinach.
The "Carolina" was evidently a school or college at Brunswick. This explains the sentence: "Brunswick, where I propose putting my third son, who is likewise an officer, à la Caroline, there to remain three or ifour years." The name is derived from the prince who founded the establishment. S. de R.
'Romola' (12 S. i. 310, 374).—1. Since
writing the answer at the latter reference I
"have consulted Prof. Bury's edition of
'Gibbon, and find that he adds the remark
Setines comes from o-ra(s) 'A^va?.

" JERRY-BUILDER " (11 S. xii. 482 ; 12 S. i. 19, 299). I beg leave to make the sugges- tion, based on the well-known r I inter- change, that the original form of this word
was " Jelly-builder." " Jelly " has, of
course, already been used with the implica-
tion of instability, lack of solidity. Perhaps
some one with the necessary leisure would
organize a hunt for this suggested original
-form. HY. HARRISON.
EIGHTEENTH-CENTURY VIRGINIAN LET- TERS (12 S. i. 309, 354). When copying the .inscriptions in Leigh Church and Churchyard in 1896 I tried in vain to find any record relating to Admiral Nicholas Haddock. I believe, however, that I located kis tomb, from which all traces of an inscription have ^disappeared. Philip Benton (' History of the Rpchford Hundred ' ) has preserved the following :
"In memory of Lydia Haddock, who died March 22, 1732, aged 19, also Francis Haddock,
who died November 22, 1735, aged , also
.Nicholas Haddock, Esquire, Admiral of the Blue,
- who died Sept. 26, 1746, aged 60."
Benton also records the following achieve-
ment : Crest, A demi-swan, wings expanded.
Arms, Argsnt, a cross sable, in the first
quarter a fleur-de-lis of the second.

WRIGHT FAMILY ARMS (12 S. i. 327). I have in my possession an old manuscript volume illustrated with coats of arms in colours of most of the families of Wright in the United Kingdom, arranged under counties, and dedicated to Sir Nathan Wright, Lord Keeper of the Great Seal of England, compiled by
"Jere: Wright, Arm. Painter and Author of this Collection, Dwelling in Little Brittaine, son of John Wright, Attorney in the Common Pleas and of Clifford's Inn, Fleet Street, Gent, and come out of Northampton." (Dated 1700.)
The arms described of the Wright families of Northampton, Leicester, and Lincolnshire are as follows :

CHIMNEY-SWEEPS : " LUCIFER " MATCH FACTORIES (12 S. i. 149). The diseases in these trades seem classical examples in preventive medicine ; with proper care, as in France to-day, they become virtually extinct. Information is readily accessible, e.g., in the following : ' Dangerous Trades,' ed. T. Oliver, 1902 (hereinafter referred to as No. 1) ; ' Handbuch der Arbeiterkrank- heiten,' ed.T.Weyl, &c., 1908 (No. 2) ; ' Les Maladies Professionnelles,' J. L. Breton, 1911 (No. 3) ; "Wiener Arbeiten aus dem Gebiete der Sozialen Medizin," ed. L. Taleky, ' In- ternationale tlebersicht iiber Gewerbe- krankheiten,' 1912, &c. (No. 4) ; American Labor Legislation Review, June 1912, (No. 5), which has at pp. 369-417 a bibliography of ' Industrial Hygiene ' ; ' Occupational ibis- eases,' W. G. Thompson, 1914 (No. 6) ; ' Industrial Medicine,' in thirty-ninth annual meeting American Academy of Medicine, 1914-15 (No. 7). The later books and articles can be found by consulting the annual volumes of ' Index Medicus ' under heading ' Hygiene and Diseases of Occupa- tions.'
