NOTES AND QUERIES. [12 s..vn. OCT. 16,1020.
The Editor provides some admirable Notes,
-which testify to most careful and minute research,
and gives us a few entertaining " addenda "
-on the subject of tobacco. Fox, as we have
Already noticed, has pipes and tobacco purchased
lor him more than once in these years, and twice
is Susanna Fell likewise so provided. It appears
that, in spite of expressed misgivings, smok-
ing was largely practised among the Friends
and that not only by the men, as several pretty
instances here given, conclusively prove.
In conclusion we can but congratulate the Society of Friends upon the possession of this account book, and Mr. Norman Penny first upon "the many pleasant hours of work he must have spent on it and next on his haying brought that work to so successful a conclusion.
Notes^on Exeter Cathedral. By H. E. Bishop.
(Exeter, Townsend.)
WE are glad to recommend this little brochure to the notice of lovers of Exeter and students of architecture. By an excellent plan the account is divided chronologically into periods, so that the visitor, with these pages under his eye, can trace the growth of the Cathedral, from the red stone Saxon monastery to the full beauty of the edifice to which Bishop Branlingham and Bishop Stafford gave the finishing touches. Frequent quotations are given from the Fabric Rolls ; and pithy notes, derived from or corrected by the latest researches into the history of the Cathedral, bring out the interest of its several parts. We imagine this will supersede most of the existing guides for visitors passing through Exeter it is, indeed, one of the best guides of its kind we have ome across.
