THE GORDON RIOTS : SHOT MARKS. (See 10 S. viii. 455.) The following note occurs among some MS. memoranda on the Gordon Riots collected by a Mr. Richard Hincker- man :

" Mr. Hay told the writer about thirty years ago that one day he saw in Charlotte Row (in which is the west side of the Mansion House) an old man gazing earnestly at the front of the house built against the tower of St. Stephen's Church, and opened a conversation with him. The stranger, a Scotchman, stated he was a sergeant in the army, and was on the spot with his regiment during Lord George Gordon's Riots, When the mob was fired over ; and that he visited the place on every anniversary of the occurrence to view the shot marks on the house.

" Mr. Dawson, at one time proprietor of the Bank Coffee-House (demolished to obtain part of the site of the present Royal Exchange), once stated that on the same occasion he and many other volunteers assembled one evening in that former Royal Exchange, and when in marching order, the colonel said to them : ' Now, gentlemen, be firm ! ' and led them out at the north gate. They marched along Bartholomew Lane, Loth- bury, Cateaton Street, Milk Street, Bread Street, Upper Thames Street, Dow gate Hill, and Wall- brook, and then into the Royal Exchange, where they were regaled with an abundance of cold beef, bread, cheese, and beer. Feb. 10, 1845."

CHRISTOPHER CARLEILL AND SIR FRANCIS WALSINGHAM. The ' Dictionary of National Biography ' under ' Carleill, Christopher,' states that " he married Mary, daughter of Sir Francis Walsingham, and sister of Sir Philip Sidney's wife. His widow was alive in 1609." On the other hand, under ' Wal- singham, Sir Francis ' it states that Wal- singham had no children by his first wife Anne, widow of Alexander Carleill (and nother of Christopher Carleill), and by his second wife Ursula, widow of Sir Richard Worsley, he had a daughter Frances (Lady Sidney), who was his only surviving child, and another daughter Mary, who died un- married in June, 1580.

The latter biography gives the facts cor- rectly (except that, I think, " Sir Richard Worsley " should be " Richard W., Esq."). That Walsingham had no children but
