EDWARD FOSS.

_Grindle_ (Vol. vii., pp. 107. 307. 384.).--As one at least of the readers

of "N. & Q." living near _Grindle_ (Greendale is modern), allow me to say

that from the little I know of the places, they appear to me "to possess no

traces of those natural features which would justify the demoniacal

derivation proposed by I. E." However, as my judgment may be of little

worth, if "I. E. of Oxford" should ever migrate into these parts, and will

favour me with a call, with credentials of being the veritable I. E. of "N.

& Q.," I shall have much pleasure in assisting him to examine for himself

all the local knowledge which a short walk to the spots may enable him to

acquire.
