There is also in the same register the following entry:--

“James Herriot, Esq. and Elizabeth Josey, gent. were married June 4th,

1624-5.--N. B. This James Herriott was one of the _forty_ children of

his father, a Scotchman.”

_Query._--Was this James Herriot related to George Heriot, the

munificent founder of the hospital at Edinburgh, who died at London in

January of the same year?
