[If our correspondent had referred to Richardson's _Dictionary_,

his difficulty would have been removed on reading this derivation

and definition:

"_Angl.-Saxon_, Be-healdan, Be-haldan, Healdan. _Dutch_, Behouden,

tenere, servare, observare. To keep or hold (_sc._ the eye fixed

upon any object), to look at it, to observe, to consider."]

_Men of Kent and Kentish Men._--The natives of Kent are often spoken of

in these different terms. Will you be so good as to inform me what is

the difference between these most undoubtedly distinctive people?
