where, the right, which he believed to go back
to St. Danstan, being questioned by the
Bishop of London, Anselm consults Wulstan,
Bishop of Worcester, who had been appointed
to his see four years before the Conquest.
Wulstan in his answer attests the exercise of
the privilege in the diocese of Worcester by
Archbishop Stigand. C. C. J. W.
NATHANIEL HAWTHORNE (9 th S. vii. 510). "The founder of the family in America, William Hathorne (so spelt, but pronounced nearly as afterwards written), emigrated from Wiltshire in 1630. (Arms: Azure, a lion's head erased between three fleurs-de-lis.)" Vide Dr. Moncure D. Conway's 'Life of Nathaniel Hawthorne ' in " Great Writers Series."
" Hawthorne was by race of the clearest Puritan strain. His earliest American ancestor (who wrote the name 'Hathorne' the shape in which it was transmitted to Nathaniel, who inserted the io~) was the younger son of a Wiltshire family, whose resi- dence, according to a note of our author's, was 4 Wigcastle, Wigton.' Hawthorne in the note in question mentions the gentleman who was at that time the head of the family ; but it does not appear that he at any period renewed the acquaintance of his English kinsfolk. Major William Hathorne came out to Massachusetts in the early years of the Puritan settlement ; in 1635 or 1636, according to the note to which I have just alluded ; in 1630, ac- cording to information presumably more accurate."

The ancestors of this author must be assigned to Berkshire. The Rev. Canon Savory, rector of Binfield, Berks, has kindly sent me, in connexion with my family pedi- gree, copies of old wills and observations thereon, whereby it appears that Philip Lee, of Binfield (will dated August, 1654), married Joan Hathorne, daughter of Wm. Hathorne, of Binfield, yeoman. This Wm. Hathorne had sons Major William Hathorne, of Massa chusette (the first American ancestor of Nathaniel Hawthorne), also Nathaniel, Robert arid Edmund Hathorne. More about the Hathornes or Hawthornes can be seen in the 1 History of Bray.' H. P. L.

MALT AND HOP SUBSTITUTES (9 th S. vii. 50, 215, 296, 554; viii. 26). My recollection if the distich which GNOMON essays to quote s that it ran

dancing and heresy were probably indige- nous. However, Mr. Northall quotes
Hops, reformation, baize, and beer
Came into England all in a year.
And if we take hops to designate dancing, ind reformation as being equivalent to heresy \ JNOMON'S memory is justified. Mr. Northall has also (' English Folk-Rhymes,' p. 95)

Hops and turkeys, carps and beer, &c. ETe gives as sources ' N. & Q.,' 1 st S. vii. 550 ; ETazlitt's 'English Proverbs,' p. 460; and N. & Q.,' 5 th S. ii. 1 05. There the version last cited is attributed to Baker's ' Chronicle.'

'THE BURIAL OF SIR JOHN MOORE' (General [ndexes to Series First, Second, Fourth, and Sixth to Eighth ; 9 th S. iv. ; vii. 461). Will not some one settle at any rate the question of date by referring to Currick's Morning Post for 1815, and giving your readers the exact number, day of month, >age, and column in which DR. FITZPATRICK ! ound the poem ? An hour should be ample for the purpose. When this is done the discussion will have a definite foundation.

PHILLIPPO (9 th S. vii. 468). This was a Walloon family, members of which migrated to Kent, and thence to Norfolk, early in the reign of Elizabeth. The proper spelling of the name is Phelipeau, from an earlier Phelipel, a diminutive of Philipe. I suppose the original Greek meant " friend of a horse." JOHN HOBSON MATTHEWS.

During the student days of James Mursell and James Phillippo at Chipping Norton the young men interchanged names. The one, James Phillippo Mursell, eventually succeeded Robert Hall at Leicester, and became widely known as an eloquent preacher; and the other, James MurseU
