_Dotinchem._--What modern town in Holland, or elsewhere, bore or bears

the name of Dotinchem, at which is dated a MS. missal I have inspected,

written in the fifteenth century? The reason for believing the place to

be Dutch is, that the Calendar marks the days of the principal saints of

Holland with red letters. There are other indications in the Calendar of

the missal having been written in and for the use of a community situated

where the influence of Cologne, Liège, Maestricht, and Daventer would

have been felt.

Perhaps, should the above Query not be answered in England, some

correspondent of your Dutch cotemporary the _Navorscher_ may have the

goodness to reply to it.
