_Lord Chief Justice Popham._--C. GONVILLE says (Vol. vii., p. 259.) that
Raleigh Gilbert "emigrated with Lord Chief Justice Popham in 1606" to
Plymouth in Virginia. As this is a fact in the history of that learned
judge with which I am unacquainted, I shall be obliged to your
correspondent to favour me with some particulars. According to Anthony Wood
he died on June 10, 1607, and was buried at Wellington in Somersetshire;
and Sir Edward Coke (6 _Reports_, p. 75.) notices the last judgment he
pronounced in the previous Easter Term.
