[Dr. Thomas Marwood, of Honiton, was a physician of the first

eminence in the West of England, and succeeded in effecting a cure

in a diseased foot of the Earl of Essex, for which he received

from Queen Elizabeth, as a reward for his professional skill, an

estate near Honiton. From an inscription on his tomb in the parish

church, it appears that "he died the 18th Sept., 1617, aged

_above 105_." The house mentioned by our correspondent was

erected in 1619 by John Marwood, who was also a physician, and by

Bridget his wife. For further particulars respecting the family of

the Marwoods, see _Gentleman's Magazine_, vols. lxi. p. 608.;

lxiii. 113.; lxxix. 3.; lxxx. pt. i. 429.; lxxx. pt. ii. 320.]

_St. Paul._--I shall be obliged if you will allow me the opportunity of

asking your correspondents for a reference to the fullest and most

reliable life of St. Paul the apostle?
