Minor Notes.
_Rhymes connected with Places._--There are many villages in England, the
names of which have old traditionary couplets attached to them,
illustrating some natural or other peculiarity; some such have already
incidentally found their way into the pages of "N. & Q." Might not a
complete collection be easily made, and would it not be an interesting
one? I send, as a beginning, two Staffordshire villages in my immediate
neighbourhood, which are very characteristically described. One is--
"Wootton under Weaver,
Where God came never,"
being very lonely, and out-of-the-way; and the other--
"Stanton on the stones,
Where the Devil broke his bones,"
which explains itself.
