_Mayors--their correct Prefix_ (Vol. i., p. 380.).--Since propounding my

Query in Vol. i., p. 380., relative to this subject, I have to inform your

readers, that I have been favoured with the opinion of gentlemen very high

in official authority on all points connected with heraldry and the rules

of precedence; which is, that the proper style of the mayor of a borough is

"the worshipful;" and they are further of opinion, that there can be no

ground for styling the mayor of a city "the right worshipful."
