_Blackwall Docks_ (Vol. i., pp. 141. 220.).--These, in Pepys' time,

probably included more than the dry docks, known as Wigram's and Green's;

_e.g._, in Sir Thomas Brame's _Letters_, dated 29th Sept. 1666, we read:

"Blackwall hath the largest wet dock in England, and belongs chiefly to

the East India Company."--Sir Thos. Brame's _Letters_, edit. Wilkin, t.

i. p. 135.
