_Paper-mill near Stevenage_ (Vol. ii., p. 473.).--In your number for

December 14, 1850, one of your correspondents, referring to Bartholomeus

_de Prop. Rerum_, mentions a paper-mill near Stevenage, in the county of

Hertford, as being probably the earliest, or one of the earliest,

established in England. I should feel much obliged if your correspondent,

through the medium of your pages, would favour me with any further

particulars on this subject; especially as to the site of this mill, there

being no stream within some miles of Stevenage capable of turning a mill. I

have been unable to find any account of this mill in either of the county

histories.
