[Footnote 3: "It was an ancient notion that the music of the swan was

produced by its wings, and inspired by the zephyr. See this subject,

treated with his accustomed erudition, by Mr. Jodrell, in his

_Illustrations of the Ion of Euripides_."--Bulwer's _Siamese Twins_.]

_Sir Thomas Herbert's Memoirs._--In consequence of the suggestion of

[Greek: D.] (Vol. ii., p. 220.), I have applied to the owner of Sir T.

Herbert's MS. account of the last days of Charles I., and the answer which

I have received is as follows:

"I found the first part of Sir Thos. Herbert's MS. (56 pages) is not in

the edition of Woods _Athenæ_ Lord W. has; but I found a note in a

pedigree book, saying it was printed in 1702, 8vo. I suppose it can be

ascertained whether this is true."

Perhaps some of your readers may know whether there is such a volume in

existence as that described by my friend.
