_Francis Grose the Antiquary._--Francis Grose, the distinguished antiquary,
was Captain and Adjutant of the Surrey Militia, commanded by Col. Hodges,
in which regiment he served for many years; but on some occasion, probably
breach of discipline, he was brought to a general court-martial. The
regiment formed part of the large encampment of 15,000 men on Cocksheath,
near Maidstone, in 1778. I think the trial took place then, or within a
year or two of that date; and should be thankful to any reader of "N. & Q."
who would supply me with the precise date when the court-martial assembled?

"_King of Kings:" Bishop Andrews' Sermons._--From MS. Account of Fellows of
Kings, compiled from 1750, A.D. 1583, Geffrey King, D.D., Professor of
Hebrew, Cambridge, first chaplain to Bancroft and James I., whether he or
Thos. King, 1605, or James King, 1609? One of them began his sermon at St.
James: "I, King of Kings, come to James the First and Sixth, nothing
wavering."
"These puns much applauded in those times, insomuch that the preacher
would stop to receive applause, which was expressed by loud and
repeated hums. In Bishop Andrews' printed Sermons, these stops may be
discovered."
