"A collection of Antiquarian Relics, chiefly in the decorative
branch of art, preserved in the Northern Counties, portrayed by a
very competent hand. Many of the objects possess considerable
interest; such as the chair of the Venerable Bede, Cromwell's
sword and watch, and the grace-cup of Thomas à Becket. All are
drawn with that distinctness which makes them available for the
antiquarian, for the artist who is studying costume, and for the
study of decorative art."--_Spectator._
