[Greek: Hêraldikos.]

[According to Sanders, the family of Greisbrook was formerly of some

note at Shenstone. He says that "Greisbrook, whence the family had

their name, is a manor in Yorkshire, which, in the reign of Henry III.,

was in the great House of Mowbray, of whom the Greisbrooks held their

lands. Roger de Greisbrook (temp. Henry II.) is mentioned as holding of

the fee of Alice, Countess of Augie, or Ewe, daughter of William de

Albiney, Earl of Arundel, by Queen Alice, relict of Henry I." Then

follow some particulars of various branches of the family, from the

year 1580 to the death of Robert Greisbrook in 1718. Sanders's History

is included in vol. ix. of _Bibliotheca Topographica Britannica_.]

_Stillingfleet's Library._--The extensive and valuable library of Edward

Stillingfleet, the learned Bishop of Worcester, who died in 1699, is said

to be contained in the library of Primate Marsh, St. Patrick's, Dublin. Can

any of your correspondents state how it came there? Was it bequeathed by

the bishop, or sold by his descendants? He died at Westminster, and was

buried in Worcester Cathedral.
