_Lord Clarendon and the Tubwoman_ (Vol. vii., pp. 133. 211. 634.).--Upon

reference to the story of the "tubwoman" in p. 133., it will be seen that

Mr. Hyde is distinctly stated to have himself married the brewer's widow,

and to have married her for her money. It is farther said that Ann Hyde,

the mother of Queen Mary and Queen Ann, was the only issue of this

marriage; whereas Ann Hyde had four brothers and a sister. No allusion is

made in this account to Sir Thomas Ailesbury. Your correspondent MR. WARDEN

says, that "the story has _usually_ been told of the wife of Sir Thomas

Ailesbury," and that it may be true of her. Will he have the kindness to

furnish a reference to the version of the story in which Sir Thomas

Ailesbury is said to have married the tubwoman?
