[The daughter of armiger by his second wife would of course

quarter her mother's arms with those of her father. In case of the

daughter marrying and having issue, such issue, to show that the

grandmother was an heiress, would, with their paternal crest,

quarter those of the grandmother, placing the arms of armiger on a

canton.]

_Chantrey's Marble Children._--I have just had placed before me a

memorandum to the effect that "there is at Leyden the perfect and

undoubted original of Chantrey's celebrated figures of the children at

Lichfield." The reference is to Poynder's _Literary Extracts_, Second

Series, p. 63. As I have not seen the book, and have no access to it,

will some correspondent of "N. & Q." inform me whether the foregoing

passage contains the whole of Poynder's statement; or otherwise afford

any information relative to its origin? I need scarcely add, that the

reputation of the great English sculptor is nowise involved in the issue

of the question.
