_Watch of Richard Whiting._--In Warner's _History of Glastonbury_ mention

is made of the watch of Richard Whiting, the last abbot. It is stated in

the _Gentleman's Magazine_ of 1805 to have been in the possession of the

Rev. Mr. Bowen, of Bath. Since then, I think, it was sold by auction; at

least I have heard so. Perhaps some of your readers know what has become of

it, and can say where it now is. The name "Richard Whiting" is said to be

engraved inside it.
