_Archbishop King._--The well-known William King, Archbishop of Dublin, was

interred in the graveyard of the parish of St. Mary, Donnybrook, near

Dublin, as appears from the following entry in the Register of Burials:

"Buried, Archbishop King, May 10th, 1729." There is no stone to mark his

grave. I would be glad to know whether there is any monument elsewhere,

I would likewise be glad to know whether there is any good engraving of the

archbishop in existence. I have lately procured a copy of a small and

rather curious one, engraved by "Kane o' Hara," and "published, Sept. 20th,

1803, by William Richardson, York House, 31. Strand;" and I am informed by

a friend that a portrait (of what size I am not aware) was sold by auction

in London, 15th February, 1800, for the sum of 3l. 6s. It was described at

that time as "very rare."

Donnybrook graveyard, I may add, is rich in buried ecclesiastics,

containing the remains of Dr. Robert Clayton, Bishop of Clogher (a man of

note in his day), and other dignitaries of our church.
