_The correspondent who writes to us on the subject of Collins is

thanked; the date in the Query_ (Vol. v., p. 227.) _is certainly wrong:

it should have been 1759. We do not publish Hayley's Epitaph, as it has

been, we believe, frequently printed. Our correspondent has been

anticipated too_ (_see_ p. 331.) _in the excellent illustration of the

word_ BIGOT _from Trench's_ "Study of Words."

"NOTES AND QUERIES" _is published at noon on Friday, so that the Country
