book learning) to go up to the main-top mast-head, even in all

weather." On the return voyage when off Cape Finisterre the vessel was

captured by Sallee pirates, and it with the crew conveyed to Morocco

as captives. Thomas Pellow was in but his eleventh year, and his

Moorish masters thought that they would have little difficulty with

him in making of him a Mussulman.

He remained in Morocco for twenty-three years, during which time he

kept a diary, and this was published in London in 1739 and 1740, but

no date is affixed to the two editions. A third edition was published

in 1775, and recently his record of adventure has been included in

the "Adventure Series," edited with an introduction by Dr. Robert

Brown, and published by Mr. Fisher Unwin, London, 1890. In this

edition the narrative extends to 330 pages, and it is not my intention

to give even a summary of its contents, the book itself being easily

accessible. What must suffice is some account of the beginning of his

bondage and an idea of the condition of Morocco whilst he was there.

Thomas Pellow was given as slave to Muley Spha one of the Sultan's

favourite sons, but, as Pellow says, a sad villain. "My business now

was to run from morning to night after his horse's heels; during which

he often prompted me to turn Moor, and told me, if I would, I should

have a very fine horse to ride on, and I should live like one of his

best esteemed friends." As Pellow declined this invitation, "he

committed me prisoner to one of his own rooms, keeping me there

several months in irons, and every day most severely bastinading

me.... My tortures were now exceedingly increased, burning my flesh

off my bones by fire; which the tyrant did, by frequent repetitions,

insomuch, that through my so very acute pains I was at last

constrained to submit, calling upon God to forgive me, who knows that

I never gave the consent of the heart, though I seemingly yielded by

holding up my finger."

He was then, after having been instructed in the Moorish language,

appointed to be chief porter to the Sultan's harem, where resided the

Sultana and thirty-eight concubines. He received strict orders that no

one should be admitted without due notice. On one occasion the Sultan

arrived and knocked to be admitted without having previously intimated

his intention of paying a visit to his harem. The outer porter made

no difficulty in admitting him, but Thomas Pellow absolutely refused

to admit His Majesty as he had received no notice that he was coming,

and when the Sultan continued to knock, he discharged his blunderbuss

through the door. The Sultan was so delighted at his trustworthy

character and behaviour on the occasion, that he cut off the heads of

the two complaisant door-keepers, and promoted Pellow to be one of his

bodyguard.

After a few years the Sultan, "being on the merry fun, ordered to be

brought before him eight hundred young men, and soon after as many young

women, and he told the men, that he had on several occasions observed

their readiness in obeying him, he would therefore give every one of

them a wife; and which indeed, he soon did, by giving some by his own

hand (a very great condescension), and to others by the beckoning of his

head, and the cast of his eye, where they should fix. After they were

all coupled and departed, I was also called forth, and bid to look at

eight black women standing there, and to take one of them for a wife, at

which sudden command, I (being not a little confounded) immediately

bowing twice, falling to the ground and kissing it, and after that the

Emperor's foot, humbly entreated him that he would be graciously pleased

to give me one of my own colour. Then, forthwith sending them off, he

ordered to be brought forth seven others, who all proved to be

mulattoes, at which I again bowed to the ground, still entreating him to

give me one of my own colour; and then he ordered them also to depart,

and sent for a single woman, full dressed, with two blacks attending

her. I being forthwith ordered to take her by the hand and lead her off,

perceived it to be black also, as soon after I did her feet; at which I

started back, and being asked what was the matter, I answered him as

before; when he, assenting, ordered me to lift up her veil and look at

her face; which I readily obeying, found her to be of a very agreeable

complexion, the old rascal crying out in the Spanish language, _Bono,

bono_, ordering me a second time to take her by the hand, lead her off,

and keep her safe."

By this wife Pellow had a daughter. The Sultan was a monster of

cruelty, but according to Pellow there was not much choice in rotten

apples; he saw the rise of several, and one was as bad as another. He

says of the first he served: "He was of so fickle, cruel, and sanguine

a nature, that none could become for one hour secure of life. He had

many despatched, by having their heads cut off, or by being strangled,

others by tossing; but scarce would he on those occasions afford a

verbal command, he thinking that too much--generally giving it by

signs or motions of his head and hand.

"The punishment of _Tossing_ is a very particular one and peculiar to

the Moors. The person whom the Emperor orders to be thus punished is

seized by three or four strong negroes, who, taking hold of his arms,

throw him up with all their strength, and at the same time turning him

round, pitch him down head foremost; at which they are so dexterous by

long use, that they can either break his neck at the first toss,

dislocate his shoulder, or let him fall with less hurt. They continue

doing this as often as the Emperor has ordered.

"The Emperor's wrath is terrible, which the Christians have often

felt. One day, passing by a high wall on which they were at work, and

being affronted that they did not keep time in their strokes, he made

the guards go up and throw them off the wall, breaking their legs and

arms, and knocking them on the head. Another time he ordered them to

bury a man alive, and beat him down along with the mortar in the wall.

"In the year 1721 the Emperor despatched El Arbi Shat, a man of one of

the best families in Barbary, being descended from the Andalusian

Moors, and deserved the esteem both of his own countrymen and of us.

Part of the crime laid to his charge was for going out of the country

without the Emperor's knowledge, and having been friendly himself with

Christian women, and often been in liquor. He was also accused of

being an unbeliever. Early one morning he was carried before the

Emperor, who commanded him to be sawed in two; upon which he was tied

between two boards and sawed in two, beginning at the head and going

downwards, till the body fell asunder, and must have remained to have

been eaten by dogs, if the Emperor had not pardoned him--an

extravagant custom, to pardon a man after he is dead, but unless he

does so, nobody dares bury the body."

Pellow describes the condition of the Christian slaves: "The severest

labour and hardships inflicted on malefactors in Europe are levity

compared with what many worthy persons undergo in this modern Egypt.

At daybreak the guardians of the several dungeons, where the Christian

slaves are shut up at night, rouse them with curses and blows to their

work, which consists in providing materials for the Emperor's

extravagant buildings, stamping earth mixed with lime and water, in a

wooden box near three yards long and three feet deep, and of the

extended breadth of the wall. Their instrument for this is a heavy

wooden stamper. Others prepare and mix the earth, or dig in quarries

for lime stones; others burn them. Some are employed to carry large

baskets of earth; some drive wagons drawn by six bulls and two horses,

and, after the toil of the day, these miserable carters watch their

cattle in the field at night, and in all weathers, as their life must

answer for any accident. The task of many is to saw, cut, cement and

erect marble pillars, and of such as are found qualified, to make

gunpowder and small arms; yet does not their skill procure them any

better treatment than those who, having only the use of their limbs

without any ingenuity, are set to the coarsest works, as tending

horses, sweeping stables, carrying burdens, grinding with hand-mills.

They have all their respective taskmasters, who punish the least stop

or inadvertency, and often will not allow the poor creatures time to

eat their bread. After such a wearisome day, it frequently happens

they are hurried away to some filthy work in the night time. Their

lodgings in the night are subterranean dungeons, round, and about five

fathoms diameter and three deep, going down by a ladder of ropes,

which is afterwards drawn up, and an iron grate fastened in the mouth;

and here they lay upon mats. Neither has their fare anything more

comfortable in it, consisting only of a small platter of black barley

meal, with a pittance of oil per day. This scantiness has put several

upon hazarding a leap from very high walls only to get a few wild

onions that grow in the Moors' burying place."

Pellow developed considerable military ability and was employed in

military operations against rebels; he was made a captain, and was

present at several sieges, and witnessed the barbarity wherewith were

treated the men of a captured town. On one occasion the troops were

required to cut off the heads of all the male inhabitants and bring

them to the Sultan; but as the number was so great and the stench

threatened to breed a pestilence in the army, the general was

compelled to slice off the ears and pickle them in barrels and convey

these only to the Sultan at his capital, who graciously under the

circumstances accepted the ears in lieu of the heads.

Pellow was several times wounded, and he made occasional abortive

attempts to escape. When wounded, returning from one of his

expeditions, he received news that his wife and daughter were dead,

and he calmly observes: "I must own that it gave me very little

uneasiness, as I thought them to be by far better off than they could

have been in this troublesome world, especially this part of it; and I

was really very glad that they were delivered out of it, and therefore

it gave me very little uneasiness."

It is startling to think that in the reign of George I there should be

such numbers of English as well as French, Spanish and Italian

captives in Morocco and Algiers and Tunis, and that their redemption

should have to be the work of private charity, and not be a determined

undertaking of Government.

In 1791 England framed a treaty with Morocco giving our merchants

freedom to sail the seas unmolested, and permitting renegades to return

to their old faith and obtain their liberty on certain conditions. But

captives continued to be taken by the corsairs as of old: "Shall a

Moslem," asked one of the sultans, "be a slave to his word, like a dog

of a Christian?" In 1800 Muley Suliman agreed with Spain for a

reciprocal interchange of captives, and similar contracts were entered

into with other powers. In 1817, acting under _force majeure_, Suliman

was compelled to disarm his war vessels, and promise to put an end to

this atrocious system, that had lasted too long. But although piracy was

no longer officially recognized, it did not wholly cease. Whether the

Sultan connived at the infraction of treaty, or whether the inhabitants

of the Riff shore acted independently of him, merchant vessels

continued to be boarded and taken and the crew enslaved.

In 1828 the English established a blockade of the Morocco coast in

retaliation for the continuance of these outrages, and in 1829 the

capture of an Austrian vessel by pirates led to the bombardment of the

ports of Tetuan, Azila, Rabat, and Sallee. At length the insolence of

the Moorish corsairs led to the Spanish war of 1859-60, which taught

the Moors a salutary lesson.

In 1856 Sir John Drummond-Hay succeeded in recovering some captives,

and in exacting an assurance that similar conduct should not recur.

But although attacks by piratical ships on the high seas were brought

to an end, wrecking was pursued with zest and impunity. Any vessel

that was cast upon the coast was regarded as a legitimate prize, and

its crew who came ashore were carried into the interior and enslaved.

In this way Riley, Adams, and Puddock were able to write their

experiences, on their escape from captivity.

Sir Arthur Brook in 1831 wrote that "the country Moors on all parts of

the coast are constantly on the look out for Christians, and instantly

make prisoners of all who have either landed accidentally or have been

shipwrecked. Parties that are occasionally formed, as ours was, to

visit Cape Spartel are even subject to this, and in one recent

instance the lady of the English Vice-Consul, who had strolled to a

short distance out of sight of the guard that attended her, was on the

point of being made a prisoner by a body of natives who surrounded her

and her party, thinking they were alone, until undeceived by the

timely appearance of the escort."

A visitor to the Riviera will see the little towns and villages walled

up, and with strong gateways and towers. They were protections

against Algerine and Moroccan corsairs, who would land and raid the

coast for captives; and there are old men still living who had heard

from their fathers piteous stories of their being taken and carried

off into bondage and cruel slavery in Africa.

There are still, and there have been in the past, numerous Europeans who

have been renegades, and have lent their wits and experience to the

Moors, but they are nearly all scoundrels of the worst description,

_forçats_ who have escaped from the prisons in Spain or Algiers, and

other vagabonds unable to show their faces in Europe. Dr. Brown writes:

"I know of no British renegade--the last and the most respectable of the

order, a Scotchman, who lived at Rabat, much esteemed for his

intelligence and honourable conduct, having died two years ago. Were the

history of these turncoats fully known, the story of their lives would

be a curious chapter in the annals of human nature. One of the most

romantic of these tales was that of an old white-bearded man who, when

the French military commission first entered Fez in 1877, was seen

silently and sad-eyed, supported by two attendants, contemplating a

uniform with which in days gone by he was very familiar. This aged

renegade was known as Abd-er-Rhuman; but his christened name was Count

Joseph de Saulty, formerly a lieutenant of engineers in the army of

Algeria. In a weak moment he eloped with the commandant's wife, and

remained in Tunis until she died. Then, becoming painfully anxious of

the grave position in which he was placed as a deserter from the

colours, he passed into Morocco, changed his faith, and as a military

adviser of the then Sultan rose high in the imperial favour. He died in

1881, and is buried at the gates of Fez, though so thoroughly did he

put the past behind him, that his son, now occupying a high position in

the Court, is entirely ignorant of any language except Arabic. Another

renegade of note was the English officer still remembered as Inglis

Bashaw under whom Muley-el-Hassan, the present Sultan, learned the art

of war, and who was the first individual to impart anything like

discipline to the Moroccan army. Why he came to Morocco is not known,

and so jealously was his identity kept dark, that in a recent work by

the Viscount de la Montonère his real name is declared to be unknown. At

this date there can be no reason for concealing that it was Graham; and

I have been told by those who have every reason to know that, like so

many others who incur the jealousy of the Moorish dignitaries, he died

of poison."

The time of Morocco piracy is at an end, but that on land there are

still captures has been of late years but too evident--the last being

the capture of Sir Hugh Maclean.

But to return to Thomas Pellow.

After several ineffectual attempts at escape, and after incurring

hairbreadth escapes, Pellow succeeded eventually in making his way to

Gibraltar. But even there he was not safe. A Jew, agent for the Sultan

of Morocco, claimed him, and demanded that he should be surrendered,

as a Mussulman and as a subject of the Moorish Sultan. But General

Field-Marshal Joseph Sabine, then Governor of Gibraltar, answered

peremptorily that, as an English-born subject, he was an Englishman,

and could not be surrendered. He went on board a vessel for England

and reached Deptford, "and going on shore, directly to the church,

returned public thanks to God for my safe arrival in Old England."

He remained in Deptford, very kindly received by a brother Cornishman,

William Jones, and there, finding no vessel bound for Falmouth, he went

to London and thence embarked on board a vessel commanded by Captain

Francis, who readily offered him a passage to Truro.

He landed at Falmouth. The news of his coming had spread. "My father's

house was almost quite at the other end of the town. I was, before I

could reach it, more than an hour; for notwithstanding it was almost

dark, I was so crowded by the inhabitants that I could not pass through

them without a great deal of difficulty--every one bidding me welcome

home, being all very inquisitive with me if I knew them, which, indeed I

did not, for I was so very young at my departure, and my captivity and

the long interval of time had made so very great an alteration on both

sides, that I did not know my own father and mother, nor they me; and

had we happened to meet at any other place without being preadvised,

whereby there might be an expectation or natural instinct interposing,

we should no doubt have passed each other, unless my great beard might

have influenced them to inquire further after me."

He returned to Penryn on the 15th October, 1738, his birthday.

His narrative concludes with a touching account of his gratitude to

God for having brought him back, and an expression of his earnest

desire to serve God truly all the rest of his days upon earth.

THE ORIGIN OF THE ROBARTES

FAMILY

Colonel Symonds, who accompanied Charles I when he was in the West,

says in his diary: "A gentleman of the county told me the original of

the Lord Roberts his family. His great-grandfather was servant to a

gentleman of this county--his hynd. Afterwards lived in Truro, and

traded in wood and fferzen--got an estate of 5 to £600. His son was so

bred, and lived there too, putt out his money, and his debtors paid it

him in tynn. He engrossing the sale of tyn, grew to be worth many

thousands--£30,000. His son was squeezed by the Court in King James

his time of £20,000, so was made a Baron, and built the house of

Lanhydrock, now the seat of Lord Roberts" (pp. 45, 46). The hind, who

founded the family, and sold wood and furze for the tin smelting, was

Richard Roberts of Truro, who married Joan Geffrey of S. Breage, and

died in 1593. His son, who continued the wood store and got paid in

tin, was John Roberts, who married Philippa, daughter of John

Gaverigan, of a very ancient family. He died in 1615.

Before the introduction of coal in tin smelting, the fuel employed was

peat, furze, i.e. gorse that produced a quick, fierce blaze, and wood.

Rapidly the trees in Cornwall were disappearing, as the produce of tin

ore became greater, and the lack of the necessary fuel was becoming a

serious impediment.

[Illustration: The Right Hon^{bl.} John Earle of RADNOR: Baron Roberts

of Truro; & L^d. PRESIDENT of His Ma^{ties} most Hon^{ble}. Privy

Council. Año·1683]

Carew, speaking of the woods in Cornwall, when he compiled his Survey,

says that in the west of the county they were scarce, and the few that

were preserved were principally employed in making charcoal for the

blowing-houses. "This lacke," he adds, "they supply either with

steam-coal from Wales, or dried turfes, some of which are also

converted into coal to serve the tinners' turne."

From the charters of King John and Edward I we learn that power was

granted to the tinners to take turf and wood where they could for the

purpose of smelting the ore; but as the woods disappeared, and the

turf was being used up in the neighbourhood of the works, they could

not travel to great distances to procure the needful fuel. Richard

Roberts saw his opportunity and seized it. He made contracts with the

owners of coppices and furzy downs and peat bottoms, and gathered his

supplies in one great store at Truro. He did more--he obtained coals

from Wales, and sold to the mining adventurers at a handsome profit to

himself, thus saving them the waste of time in wandering about

obtaining fuel where they could. Thus he laid the foundations of a

business that was largely increased by his son John. But this latter

embarked on another branch of money-making. He lent cash to the

adventurers in the mines. "As poor as a tinner" was a proverbial

expression in Cornwall, and "a tinner is never broke till his back is

broke." But if the working miner remained poor, the moneylender waxed

wealthy on the miners' work.

Carew observes that the parishes in which the tin was worked were in a

"meaner plight of wealth" than those which were agricultural. Vast

amounts of tin were raised, but little of the profit stuck to the

hands of the toilers in the mines.

Tinning was not carried on by large companies, but by small men; three

or four would combine to take a set. They cut four turves at the

bounds, paying a certain sum down to the Duchy or to the private owner

of the land, as rent; and also owing a toll of the tin raised to the

proprietor of the land. These small men were without capital, and they

were constrained to borrow of Roberts, and he let them have the

requisite money at a rate of interest we should consider extortionate.

Queen Elizabeth was unable to borrow money of the estates of Holland

under 25 per cent, and we may judge what would be the rate of interest

demanded by the usurer of the working miner.

But that was not all. The miner did not pay the interest in cash, but

in tin, and tin at the value pretty arbitrarily laid down by the

moneylender, so that he had the adventurer in two ways. Nor was this

indeed all. He often advanced to the miner not cash alone, but the

tools for his trade, the timber for shoring up the shafts, and the

machinery, such as it was, for pumping the water out of the mines.

There was an additional means of getting money, and also of acquiring

lands. Carew gives us a curious account of the manner in which the

London merchants of his time took advantage of any want of money

Cornish gentry in London might experience in order to defray their

expenses there, by binding them to furnish tin for money advanced, at

great ultimate loss to the Cornish men. They also had their agents in

Cornwall, who advanced money to the needy tinners, partly in wares and

partly in money, upon agreement that they should furnish certain

quantities of tin at the next coinage, by which the tinners

experienced great loss.

With regard to the loans to the adventurers, Roberts possessed the

inestimable advantage of being on the spot, and so prepared to supply

them with the fuel and the capital they needed. But there were Cornish

gentry who wanted to go to London, and desired loans to cover their

expenses in town. They went to Roberts: he furnished the supplies. As

may be well expected, these gentry did not make money in London, they

became greatly impoverished there, and Roberts, we may infer, was able

to take their estates, or large slices out of them, on the security of

which he had made the advances.

How hard the work of the poor tinners was, on whom the usurers preyed,

we learn from Carew. "In most places," he says, "their toyle is so

extream, as they cannot endure it above four hours a day, but are

succeeded by spels; the residue of the time they weare out at coytes,

kayles, or like idle exercises."

Richard Roberts, the son of John, amassed great wealth, and was

knighted 11 November, 1616. At this time he was threatened with

prosecution by the Privy Seal for usury, and he only escaped trial by

paying a bribe of £12,000. He bought a baronetcy of James I in 1621,

and was created Baron Truro in 1625. One of the charges brought

against Buckingham, when impeached in the House of Commons, was that

he had received a bribe of £10,000 from Richard Roberts for

negotiating for him his elevation to the Barony of Truro. This is

confirmed by the deposition of Roberts himself (_Calendar State

Papers_, 1677-8, p. 220; cf. 1625-6, p. 298).

Richard Roberts married Frances, daughter of John Hender of Botreux

Castle or Boscastle, a co-heiress, and died in 1634. He was evidently a

very shrewd and grasping man, and particularly desirous of pushing ahead

and obtaining a position to which his only claim was wealth. By the

marriages of father and son, the very plebeian family of Roberts brought

strains of gentle blood into the veins of their descendants. He it was

who built the stately mansion of Lanhydrock. He died 19th April, 1634,

but was not buried at Lanhydrock till July 4th in the same year.

His son and heir John Roberts, second Baron Truro, was sent to be

educated at Exeter College, Oxford. He entered as Gentleman Commoner

in 1625, when aged seventeen, the year of his mother's death. At

college, according to Wood, he "sucked in evil principles both as to

Church and State."

By his marriage with the Lady Lucy, daughter of Robert Rich, Earl of

Warwick, he became allied to the leaders of the opposition among the

peers, and during the Long Parliament his vote was almost always given

with the popular party among the Lords. He was appointed Lord

Lieutenant of Cornwall in 1642, and became colonel of a regiment of

foot in the army of Lord Essex. He fought at Edgehill, and commanded a

brigade in the battle of Newbury. In 1644 he held the position of

Field Marshal in the army of Essex, and he was with him in the west

when he advanced further into Cornwall, getting into a position which

eventually led to a humiliating defeat, among a population fanatically

affected to the Royal side.

The King with Prince Maurice was in full pursuit, driving him into a

corner, the narrow extremity of Cornwall. The King was now joined by

Sir Richard Grenville with Cornish levies, cutting off some of the

Parliamentarian foraging parties. But the sea as yet was open, and the

Earl of Warwick, who attended the motions of the army, was off the

coast. "It was therefore now resolved to make Essex's quarters yet

straiter, and to cut off even his provisions by sea, or a good part

thereof." Fowey was in the possession of Essex, "and it was

exceedingly wondered at by all men, that he being so long possessed of

Foy, did not put strong guards into the place, by which he might have

prevented his army's being brought into these extreme necessities."

Sir Richard Grenville possessed himself of Lanbetherick, a strong

house belonging to Lord Roberts, and lying between the Parliamentarian

army and the little harbour, and Sir Jacob Astley made himself master

of View Hall, which was opposite to Fowey, and then cut off supplies

from reaching the camp of Essex.

For eight or ten days the armies lay inactive, and then Charles drew

closer the toils in which the hostile army was held. He drove them

from a rising ground called Beacon Hill, and immediately raised a

square work on it, and placed there a battery that threw a plunging

fire into their quarters. Then Goring was sent with the greatest part

of the royal horse, and fifteen hundred foot, to S. Blazey, to drive

the enemy yet closer together, and to cut off the provisions they

received from that direction. The dashing, daring Goring executed his

commission with complete success, and the Parliamentarians were

reduced to that small strip of land that lay between the river Fowey

and that of S. Blazey, which was not above two miles in breadth and

little more in width, and which had already been eaten bare by the

cavalry. The destruction of the whole army now appeared inevitable;

but through the carelessness of Goring, one dark night all the horse

of the enemy were allowed to slip unperceived through the lines, on

the night of the 30th and 31st August, 1644, and the Earl of Essex

with Lord Roberts and many of his officers fought his way to the shore

near the mouth of the Fowey, and there they embarked on board a ship

which Warwick had sent round, and sailed away to Plymouth on September

1st, leaving the foot, cannon, and ammunition to the care of the

gallant Skippon, who had nothing left for it but to make the best

capitulation he could. Essex left Roberts in command at Plymouth,

which he successfully defended against the attacks made during the

ensuing months, and his popularity is attested by the petitions made

by the Plymothians that he might be left in command of the town.

Lord Roberts must have suffered considerably in the Civil War, for his

estates were alienated from him and granted by the King to Sir Richard

Grenville, whilst his home of Lanhydrock was occupied by the Royalists,

and his children were detained from him. He was a staunch Presbyterian,

hating Prelacy, believing in exclusive salvation, the perquisite of

those who believed in Calvin, and he had no love for the Independents.

Since 1643 an assembly for the regulation of religion had been sitting

at Westminster. It had substituted Presbyterianism for the Episcopacy,

as the established religion of England, and had abolished the Prayer

Book and issued in its stead a book called the Directory. These

changes had been confirmed by Parliament. But this settlement of the

religious question was quite contrary to the views of the Army, which

was mainly--at all events that portion commanded by Cromwell in the

North--composed of Independents.

Sir Harry Vane, Oliver Cromwell, Nathaniel Fiennes, and Oliver St.

John, the solicitor-general, were regarded as their leaders.

Dissentions broke out in the House of Commons; Cromwell and Lord

Manchester cast imputations on each other. Cromwell desired to remodel

the Army, of which the House of Commons had already become

suspicious, and how to effect this project was the difficulty, and his

object could only be attained by a circuitous course. At his instance

a committee was chosen to frame what was called the "Self-denying

Ordinance," by which the members of both Houses were excluded from all

civil and military employments, except a few offices which were

specified. After a great debate, the Ordinance passed both Houses

(April 3rd, 1645), and Essex, Warwick, Manchester, Denbigh, Roberts,

and many others resigned their commands, and received the thanks of

Parliament for their past services.

Lord Roberts's zeal for the cause rapidly cooled. He and Essex both

protested against the passing of the Ordinance on March 13th, 1646,

that made the new Presbyterian Established "Church" subordinate to

Parliament.

On January 3rd, 1648, it was passed in both Houses that thenceforth no

addresses should any more be sent to the King; he was virtually

dethroned, and the whole constitution was formally overthrown; and by

orders from the Army the King was shut up in close confinement, his

servants removed, and his correspondence with his friends prevented.

When the Army threatened to intervene, Roberts deemed it his most

prudent course to absent himself from the House of Lords, and suffer

the act to pass.

He took no part in the trial of the King, and after the execution of

Charles withdrew from further share in public affairs. He was,

however, not hostile to the Protectorate, and at the Installation of

the Protector he suffered his son to be in his train.

At the Restoration he was received into favour, and became a Privy

Councillor, and was appointed Lord Deputy of Ireland, and Lord Keeper

of the Privy Seal in May, 1661. In July, 1679, he was created

Viscount Bodmin and Earl of Radnor.

With the latter part of his life we have no concern, as this article

has to do only with the rise of the family of Roberts to an Earldom

from a store of wood and furze, and the sordid desk of an usurer.

Pepys, in his _Diary_, describes him as "a very sober man," and

Clarendon as "a sullen, morose man, intolerably proud," and as having

a "dark countenance," and Burnet as a "sullen and morose man." He died

July 17th, 1685. His son Robert seems to have deemed it expedient to

differentiate his family name from the thousands of Roberts's in

humble life, by the alteration of the spelling of the name, by the

transfer of the _e_ and the addition of an _a_, and the vulgar Roberts

bloomed into Robartes.

The motto assumed by the first Lord Roberts, "quæ supra" expressed the

sincere aspiration of the man, who was certainly sincere in seeking

"those things which are above," as the guiding principle of his life.

The Robartes or Roberts family became extinct in the male line in

1757; but Mary Vere Robartes, daughter of the Hon. Russell Robartes,

married Thomas Hunt, of Mollington, and left issue Thomas Hunt, who

had an only child, Anna Maria, who married Charles Reginald Agar,

third son of James, Viscount Clifden, and carried the wealth of the

Robartes family into that of Agar; and in 1822 Thomas James Agar, her

son, assumed the name and arms of Robartes, and was created Baron

Robartes of Lanhydrock and Truro in 1869. The descent is, however, so

remote and through females, that the present family can hardly be

considered to represent the original Robertes or Roberts stock.

THEODORE PALEOLOGUS

In the church of Landulph is a small brass attached to the wall that

bears the following inscription: "Here lyeth the body of Theodore

Paleologus, of Pesaro in Italye, descended from y^e Imperyal lyne of y^e

last Christian emperors of Greece, being the sonne of Camillio, y^e

sonne of Prosper, the sonne of Theodoro, the sonne of John, y^e sonne of

Thomas, second brother of Constantius Paleologus, the 8^{th} of that

name, and last of y^e lyne y^t rayned in Constantinople until subdued by

the Turks, who married w^t Mary, y^e daughter of William Balls, of

Hadlye in Souffolke, Gent., and had issue 5 children, Theodore, John,

Ferdinando, Maria, and Dorothy; and departed this life at Clyfton, y^e

21^{st} of Jan^y 1636." Above the inscription are the imperial arms of

the empire of Byzantium--an eagle displayed with two heads, the two legs

resting upon two gates; the imperial crown over the whole, and between

the gates a crescent, for difference as second son.

There were eight Emperors of the East of the family of the Paleologi.

The family descended from a General Andronicus Paleologus, who died in

1246. The Emperor Manuel, who deceased in 1425, had five sons: John II,

Emperor, who died in 1449; Theodore, despot in Lacedemon; Andronicus,

despot in Thessalonica; Constantine, despot of the Morea. John II was

associated with his father, and succeeded him. Andronicus, the second

son, died of leprosy in 1429. Theodore, Constantine, Demetrius, and

Thomas wasted their resources in mutual contests, but Theodore was

constrained to adopt the monastic profession. On the death of John II

the royal family was reduced to three princes--Constantine, Demetrius,

and Thomas. Demetrius at once claimed the vacant throne, but failed in

his attempt, and Constantine succeeded, the last and greatest of the

Paleologi. "Demetrius and Thomas now divided the Morea between them; but

though they had taken a solemn oath never to violate the agreement,

differences soon arose, and Thomas took up arms to drive Demetrius out

of his possessions; Demetrius hereupon retired to Asan, his wife's

brother, by whose means he obtained succours from Amurath, and compelled

Thomas to submit the matters in dispute to the Emperor's (Constantine's)

arbitration. But that prince refusing to deliver to his brother the

territories that fell to his share, Mohammed ordered Thuraken, his

governor in the Morea, to assist Demetrius."

Shortly after this, on the fatal May 29th, 1453, Constantinople was

taken by the Turks, and the gallant Constantine was killed.

Immediately after the capture Mohammed proceeded to make war on

Demetrius and Thomas, whereupon the Albanians, subjects of Thomas,

revolted. Fresh disputes broke out between the brothers, each

endeavouring to supplant the other, and in 1459 Mohammed entered the

Morea and reduced Corinth. At the first news of his approach Thomas

fled to Italy with his wife and children, and Demetrius submitted to

the Sultan, who carried him away to Constantinople, where he died in

abject slavery in 1470. Thomas was received in Italy by Pope Pius II

in 1461, who allowed him a pension of six thousand ducats.

MEMORIAL BRASS IN THE CHURCH OF LANDULPH

_Reproduced by permission of E. H. W. Dunkin, Esq., F.S.A., from his

book on Cornish Brasses_]

Historians record only two sons, Andrew and Manuel, but according to

the inscription in Landulph church there was a third, John, whom

Italian writers have not mentioned.

Andrew, the eldest, married a woman from the streets of Rome, and

dying childless, in 1502, bequeathed his empty honours to Ferdinand

and Isabella of Spain, having previously sold them to Charles VIII of

France. Manuel Paleologus, the second son, revisited his native

country. He was granted a train of Christians and Moslems to attend

him to his grave. Gibbon says: "If there be some animals of so

generous a nature that they refuse to propagate in a domestic state,

the last of the imperial race must be ascribed to an inferior kind; he

accepted from the Sultan's liberality two beautiful females; and his

surviving son was lost in the habit and religion of a Turkish slave."

Thomas, who had been despot of Morea, died in 1465. By his wife,

Catherine Zaccaria, he had one daughter, in addition to the sons

mentioned, and this was Helen, who married Lazarus II, King of Servia,

and died in 1474.

Why Theodore Paleologus came to England we do not know, but possibly

in the train of Sir Henry Killigrew and Sir Nicholas Lower. Sir

Nicholas had married Sir Henry's daughter, and as they were both

advanced in life and childless they may have been disposed to befriend

the Paleologi, and Lady Killigrew was one of the learned daughters of

Sir Anthony Coke, celebrated for her knowledge of Greek, and she may

have inspired her daughter, Lady Lower, with the same fondness for the

classic languages. This is but conjecture; but this at least is

certain, that the Paleologi were given Clifton, in Landulph, as their

residence, and this was a mansion that belonged to the Lowers.

Theodore Paleologus married Mary Balls in 1615, and by her had three

sons, Theodore, John, and Ferdinando, and two daughters.

Theodore was a lieutenant in the Parliamentary army in 1642, under

Lord St. John, and was buried in Westminster Abbey in 1644.

There are no traces to be found of John and Ferdinando. Mary, one of

the daughters of Theodore and Mary Balls, died unmarried, and was

buried at Landulph in 1674. Her sister Dorothy married, in 1656,

William Arundell, and died in 1681, he in 1684.

There was a Theodore Paleologus who died at sea on board the _Charles

II_ under Captain Gibson, in 1693. In his will Theodore mentions only

his wife Martha, and we do not know who was his father.

We do not know who was the William Arundell whom Dorothy Paleologus

married. Unhappily the registers of S. Dominic, where she and her

husband lived, have been lost, and we cannot say whether the Mary

Arundell who married a Francis Lee soon after the death of her

presumed parents was a daughter. But if so, as Dr. Jago suggests in a

paper in the _Archæologia_, "The imperial blood perhaps still flows in

the bargemen of Cargreen."

FRANCE has been adequately rendered into English; yet outside this

country he shares with TOLSTOI the distinction of being the greatest

and most daring student of humanity now living.

¶ There have been many difficulties to encounter in completing

arrangements for a uniform edition, though perhaps the chief barrier to

publication here has been the fact that his writings are not for

babes--but for men and the mothers of men. Indeed, some of his Eastern

romances are written with biblical candour. "I have sought truth

strenuously," he tells us, "I have met her boldly. I have never turned

from her even when she wore an unexpected aspect." Still, it is

believed that the day has come for giving English versions of all his

imaginative works, as well as of his monumental study JOAN OF ARC, which

is undoubtedly the most discussed book in the world of letters to-day.

¶ MR. JOHN LANE has pleasure in announcing that he will commence

publication of the works of M. ANATOLE FRANCE in English, under the

general editorship of MR. FREDERIC CHAPMAN, with the following volumes:

THE RED LILY

MOTHER OF PEARL

THE GARDEN OF EPICURUS

THE CRIME OF SYLVESTRE BONNARD

JOCASTA AND THE FAMISHED CAT

BALTHASAR

THE WELL OF ST. CLARE

THE ELM TREE ON THE MALL

THE WICKER-WORK WOMAN

AT THE SIGN OF THE QUEEN PÉDAUQUE

THE OPINIONS OF JEROME COIGNARD

MY FRIEND'S BOOK

THE ASPIRATIONS OF JEAN SERVIEN

THAÏS

JOAN OF ARC (2 vols.)

¶ All the books will be published at 6/- each with the exception of

JOAN OF ARC, which will be 25/- net the two volumes, with eight

Illustrations.

¶ The format of the volumes leaves little to be desired. The size is

Demy 8vo (9 × 5-3/4 in.), that of this Prospectus, and they will be

printed from Caslon type upon a paper light in weight and strong in

texture, with a cover design in crimson and gold, a gilt top, end-papers

from designs by Aubrey Beardsley and initials by Henry Ospovat. In

short, these are volumes for the bibliophile as well as the lover of

fiction, and form perhaps the cheapest library edition of copyright

novels ever published, for the price is only that of an ordinary novel.

¶ The translation of these books has been entrusted to such competent

French scholars as MR. ALFRED ALLINSON, HON. MAURICE BARING, MR.

FREDERIC CHAPMAN, MR. ROBERT B. DOUGLAS, MR. A. W. EVANS, MRS.

FARLEY, MR. LAFCADIO HEARN, MRS. JOHN LANE, MRS. NEWMARCH, MR. C. E.

ROCHE, MISS WINIFRED STEPHENS, and MISS M. P. WILLCOCKS.

¶ As Anatole Thibault, _dit_ Anatole France, is to most English readers

merely a name, it will be well to state that he was born in 1844 in the

picturesque and inspiring surroundings of an old bookshop on the Quai

Voltaire, Paris, kept by his father, Monsieur Thibault, an authority on

eighteenth-century history, from whom the boy caught the passion for the

principles of the Revolution, while from his mother he was learning to

love the ascetic ideals chronicled in the Lives of the Saints. He was

schooled with the lovers of old books, missals and manuscripts; he

matriculated on the Quais with the old Jewish dealers of curios and

_objets d'art_; he graduated in the great university of life and

experience. It will be recognised that all his work is permeated by his

youthful impressions; he is, in fact, a virtuoso at large.

¶ He has written about thirty volumes of fiction. His first novel was

JOCASTA & THE FAMISHED CAT (1879). THE CRIME OF SYLVESTRE BONNARD

appeared in 1881, and had the distinction of being crowned by the

French Academy, into which he was received in 1896.

¶ His work is illuminated with style, scholarship, and psychology; but

its outstanding features are the lambent wit, the gay mockery, the

genial irony with which he touches every subject he treats. But the wit

is never malicious, the mockery never derisive, the irony never barbed.

To quote from his own GARDEN OF EPICURUS: "Irony and Pity are both of

good counsel; the first with her smiles makes life agreeable, the other

sanctifies it to us with her tears. The Irony I invoke is no cruel

deity. She mocks neither love nor beauty. She is gentle and kindly

disposed. Her mirth disarms anger and it is she teaches us to laugh at

rogues and fools whom but for her we might be so weak as to hate."

¶ Often he shows how divine humanity triumphs over mere asceticism,

and with entire reverence; indeed, he might be described as an ascetic

overflowing with humanity, just as he has been termed a "pagan, but a

pagan constantly haunted by the pre-occupation of Christ." He is in

turn--like his own Choulette in THE RED LILY--saintly and Rabelaisian,

yet without incongruity. At all times he is the unrelenting foe of

superstition and hypocrisy. Of himself he once modestly said: "You

will find in my writings perfect sincerity (lying demands a talent I

do not possess), much indulgence, and some natural affection for the

beautiful and good."

¶ The mere extent of an author's popularity is perhaps a poor argument,

yet it is significant that two books by this author are in their HUNDRED

AND TENTH THOUSAND, and numbers of them well into their SEVENTIETH

THOUSAND, whilst the one which a Frenchman recently described as

"Monsieur France's most arid book" is in its FIFTY-EIGHTH THOUSAND.

¶ Inasmuch as M. FRANCE'S ONLY contribution to an English periodical

appeared in THE YELLOW BOOK, vol. v., April 1895, together with the

first important English appreciation of his work from the pan of the

Hon. Maurice Baring, it is peculiarly appropriate that the English

edition of his works should be issued from the Bodley Head.

| etc. Demy 8vo, 21s. net. With 58 Reproductions from Unique |

| Portraits, etc. (Uniform with this Volume.) |

+--------------------------------------------------------------+

| A FEW PRESS OPINIONS. |

| |

| _Daily News._--"A fascinating series ... the whole book |

| is rich in human interest. It is by these personal touches, |

| drawn from tradition and memoirs, that the dead men, |

| surrounded by the curious panoply of their time, are made to |

| live again in Mr. Baring-Gould's pages." |

| |

| _Westminster Gazette._--"Fascinating reading ... a book |

| which is 'cider and cream' to West Country folk, and is |

| extremely interesting to all who are attracted by human |

| documents which are out of the common." |

| |

| _Globe._--"For a Christmas present to a West Countryman |

| Mr. Baring-Gould's book is unsurpassed.... The volume is |

| full of good stories." |

| |

| M. P. WILLCOCKS in _Daily Chronicle_.--"The |

| writing of such a book as 'Devonshire Characters' is a kind |

| of intelligent ancestor worship.... The illustrations are |

| curiously fascinating, and there are fifty-eight of them |

| in the book, which has also an excellent index." |

| |

| _Scotsman._--"Full of out of the way learning, and |

| always brightly written ... an uncommonly interesting and |

| instructive book...." |

| |

| _Times._--"... A more entertaining crew than these |

| Devonshire Characters it would be impossible to find; and |

| the book that perpetuates their memory is excellent reading |

| from cover to cover...." |

| |

| _Pall Mall Gazette._--"... No writer of modern times |

| has so fully breathed the spirit of the West as Mr. |

| Baring-Gould...." |

| |

| _Birmingham Post._--"Mr. S. Baring-Gould shows himself |

| to be very much alive in 'Devonshire Characters,' and we |

| cannot recall a case in which his astonishing literary s |

| energies have been put to more interesting use ... a |

| handsome as well as interesting addition to every |

| library...." |

| |

| _Western Daily Mercury._--"... We can most strenuously |

| advise all Devonshire men and women who have either a love |

| for their county, or a love for a good book, or both, to buy |

| 'Devonshire Characters.' They will never regret it." |

| |

| _Guardian._--"... The eccentric lives and the evil |

| courses of the odd and the profligate have ever afforded |

| more stirring reading than the improving careers of the |

| good, and where we might idly turn the pages of Prince, we |

| must needs follow with keen interest the roads traversed by |

| Mr. Baring-Gould's villains and eccentrics, often to the |

| gallows, or the county gaol, or into the weird old legends |

| of the West...." |

| |

| _Daily Telegraph._--"... His latest work will probably |

| enjoy a longer popularity than anything else that he has |

| done. It is a work that for all West Country folk will have |

| a lasting fascination, dealing as it does with a large |

| number of worthies and unworthies, celebrated people and |

| notorious people, who have been associated with the county." |

⁂ _It was Schiller who said: "Twine no wreath for the actor, since his

work is oral and ephemeral." "Stars of the Stage" may in some degree

remove this reproach. There are hundreds of thousands of playgoers,

and both editor and publisher think it reasonable to assume that a

considerable number of these would like to know something about

actors, actresses, and dramatists, whose work they nightly applaud.

Each volume will be carefully illustrated, and as far as text,

printing, and paper are concerned will be a notable book. Great care

has been taken in selecting the biographers, who in most cases have

already accumulated much appropriate material._

of the greatest figure in history."

Giving an Account of the Dispute between the Emperor and the Elector

of Hesse. By COUNTESS GÜNTHER GRÖBEN. With Numerous Illustrations.

Demy 8vo (9 × 5-3/4 inches). 12_s._ 6_d._ net.

⁂ _Ralph Heathcote, the son of an English father and an Alsatian

mother, was for some time in the English diplomatic service as

first secretary to Mr. Brook Taylor, minister at the Court of

Hesse, and on one occasion found himself very near to making

history. Napoleon became persuaded that Taylor was implicated in a

plot to procure his assassination, and insisted on his dismissal

from the Hessian Court. As Taylor refused to be dismissed, the

incident at one time seemed likely to result to the Elector in the

loss of his throne. Heathcote came into contact with a number of

notable people, including the Miss Berrys, with whom he assures

his mother he is not in love. On the whole, there is much

interesting material for lovers of old letters and journals._

MEMOIRS OF THE COUNT DE CARTRIE. A record of the extraordinary events

in the life of a French Royalist during the war in La Vendée, and of

his flight to Southampton, where he followed the humble occupation of

gardener. With an introduction by FRÉDÉRIC MASSON, Appendices and

Notes by PIERRE AMÉDÉE PICHOT, and other hands, and numerous

Illustrations, including a Photogravure Portrait of the Author. Demy

8vo. 12_s._ 6_d._ net.

_Daily News._--"We have seldom met with a human document which has

interested us so much."

_Athenæum._--"As a record of personal suffering and indomitable

perseverance against opposing circumstances the narrative of De

Cartrie's escape to the Eastern frontier, in the disguise of a

master-gunner, could not easily be surpassed."

WOMEN OF THE SECOND EMPIRE. Chronicles of the Court of Napoleon III.

By FRÉDÉRIC LOLIÉE. With an introduction by RICHARD WHITEING and 53

full-page Illustrations, 3 in Photogravure. Demy 8vo. 21_s._ net.

_Standard._--"M. Frédéric Loliée has written a remarkable book,

vivid and pitiless in its description of the intrigue and

dare-devil spirit which flourished unchecked at the French

Court.... Mr. Richard Whiteing's introduction is written with

restraint and dignity."

_Daily Telegraph._--"It is a really fascinating story, or series

of stories, set forth in this volume.... Here are anecdotes

innumerable of the brilliant women of the Second Empire, so that

in reading the book we are not only dazzled by the beauty and

gorgeousness of everything, but we are entertained by the record

of things said and done, and through all we are conscious of the

coming 'gloom and doom' so soon to overtake the Court. Few novels

possess the fascination of this spirited work, and many readers

will hope that the author will carry out his proposal of giving us

a further series of memories of the 'Women of the Second Empire.'"

LOUIS NAPOLEON AND THE GENESIS OF THE SECOND EMPIRE. By F. H. CHEETHAM.

With Numerous Illustrations. Demy 8vo (9 × 5-3/4 inches). 16_s._ net.

Austen. By J. H. and E. C. HUBBACK. With numerous Illustrations. Demy

8vo. 12_s._ 6_d._ net.

_Morning Post._--"... May be welcomed as an important addition to

Austeniana ...; it is besides valuable for its glimpses of life in

the Navy, its illustrations of the feelings and sentiments of

naval officers during the period that preceded and that which

followed the great battle of just one century ago, the battle

which won so much but which cost us--Nelson."

SOME WOMEN LOVING AND LUCKLESS. By TEODOR DE WYZEWA. Translated from

the French by C. H. JEFFRESON, M.A. With Numerous Illustrations. Demy

8vo (9 × 5-3/4 inches). 7_s._ 6_d._ net.

_The Times._--"A most illuminating commentary on Tchaikovsky's

music."

_World._--"One of the most fascinating self-revelations by an

artist which has been given to the world. The translation is

excellent, and worth reading for its own sake."

_Contemporary Review._--"The book's appeal is, of course,

primarily to the music-lover; but there is so much of human and

literary interest in it, such intimate revelation of a singularly

interesting personality, that many who have never come under the

spell of the Pathetic Symphony will be strongly attracted by what

is virtually the spiritual autobiography of its composer. High

praise is due to the translator and editor for the literary skill

with which she has prepared the English version of this

fascinating work.... There have been few collections of letters

published within recent years that give so vivid a portrait of the

writer as that presented to us in these pages."

COKE OF NORFOLK AND HIS FRIENDS: The Life of Thomas William Coke,

First Earl of Leicester of the second creation, containing an account

Photogravure and upwards of 40 other Illustrations reproduced from

Contemporary Portraits, Prints, etc. Demy 8vo. 2 vols. 32_s._ net.

_The Times._--"We thank Mr. Stirling for one of the most

interesting memoirs of recent years."

_Daily Telegraph._--"A very remarkable literary performance. Mrs.

Stirling has achieved a resurrection. She has fashioned a picture

of a dead and forgotten past and brought before our eyes with the

vividness of breathing existence the life of our English ancestors

of the eighteenth century."

_Pall Mall Gazette._--"A work of no common interest; in fact, a

work which may almost be called unique."

_Evening Standard._--"One of the most interesting biographies we

have read for years."

THE MEMOIRS OF ANN, LADY FANSHAWE. Written by Lady Fanshawe. With

Extracts from the Correspondence of Sir Richard Fanshawe. Edited by H.

⁂ _This Edition has been printed direct from the original

manuscript in the possession of the Fanshawe Family, and Mr. H. C.

Fanshawe contributes numerous notes which form a running

commentary on the text. Many famous pictures are reproduced,

including paintings by Velazquez and Van Dyck._

THE DIARY OF A LADY-IN-WAITING. By LADY CHARLOTTE BURY. Being the

Diary Illustrative of the Times of George the Fourth. Interspersed

with original Letters from the late Queen Caroline and from various

other distinguished persons. New edition. Edited, with an

Introduction, by A. FRANCIS STEUART. With numerous portraits. Two

Vols. Demy 8vo. 21_s._ net.

⁂ _This book, which appeared anonymously in 1838, created an

enormous sensation, and was fiercely criticised by Thackeray and

in the Reviews of the time. There is no doubt that it was founded

on the diary of Lady Charlotte Bury, daughter of the 5th Duke of

Argyll, and Lady-in-Waiting to the unfortunate Caroline of

Brunswick, when Princess of Wales. It deals, therefore, with the

curious Court of the latter and with the scandals that occurred

there, as well as with the strange vagaries of the Princess

abroad. In this edition names left blank in the original have been

(where possible) filled up, and many notes are given by the Editor

to render it useful to the ever-increasing number of readers

interested in the later Georgian Period._

THE DAUGHTER OF LOUIS XVI.: Marie-Thérèse-Charlotte of France,

Duchesse D'Angoulême. By G. LENOTRE. With 13 Full-page Illustrations.

Demy 8vo. 10_s._ 6_d._ net.

⁂ _M. G. Lenotre is perhaps the most widely read of a group of

modern French writers who have succeeded in treating history from

a point of view at once scientific, dramatic and popular. He has

made the Revolution his particular field of research, and deals

not only with the most prominent figures of that period, but with

many minor characters whose life-stories are quite as thrilling as

anything in fiction. The localities in which these dramas were

enacted are vividly brought before us in his works, for no one has

reconstructed 18th century Paris with more picturesque and

accurate detail. "The Daughter of Louis XVI." is quite equal in

interest and literary merit to any of the volumes which have

preceded it, not excepting the famous Drama of Varennes. As usual,

M. Lenotre draws his material largely from contemporary documents,

and among the most remarkable memoirs reproduced in this book are

"The Story of my Visit to the Temple" by Harmand de la Meuse, and

the artless, but profoundly touching narrative of the unhappy

orphaned Princess: "A manuscript written by

Marie-Thérèse-Charlotte of France upon the captivity of the

SIR MARTIN CONWAY'S NOTE.

_Nearly half a century has passed since Mr. W. H. James Weale,

then resident at Bruges, began that long series of patient

investigations into the history of Netherlandish art which was

destined to earn so rich a harvest. When he began work Memlinc was

still called Hemling, and was fabled to have arrived at Bruges as

a wounded soldier. The van Eycks were little more than legendary

heroes. Roger Van der Weyden was little more than a name. Most of

the other great Netherlandish artists were either wholly forgotten

or named only in connection with paintings with which they had

nothing to do. Mr. Weale discovered Gerard David, and disentangled

his principal works from Memlinc's, with which they were then

confused. During a series of years he published in the "Beffroi,"

a magazine issued by himself, the many important records from

ancient archives which threw a flood of light upon the whole

origin and development of the early Netherlandish school. By

universal admission he is hailed all over Europe as the father of

this study. It is due to him in great measure that the

masterpieces of that school, which by neglect were in danger of

perishing fifty years ago, are now recognised as among the most

priceless treasures of the Museums of Europe and the United

States. The publication by him, therefore, in the ripeness of his

years and experience, of the result of his studies on the van

Eycks is a matter of considerable importance to students of art

history. Lately, since the revived interest in the works of the

Early French painters has attracted the attention of untrained

speculators to the superior schools of the Low Countries, a number

of wild theories have been started which cannot stand upright in

the face of recorded facts. A book is now needed which will set

down all those facts in full and accurate form. Fullness and

accuracy are the characteristics of all Mr. Weale's work._

VINCENZO FOPPA OF BRESCIA, FOUNDER OF THE LOMBARD SCHOOL, HIS LIFE AND

WORK. By CONSTANCE JOCELYN FFOULKES and MONSIGNOR RODOLFO MAJOCCHI,

D.D., Rector of the Collegio Borromeo, Pavia. Based on research in the

Archives of Milan, Pavia, Brescia, and Genoa, and on the study of all

his known works. With over 100 Illustrations, many in Photogravure,

and 100 Documents. Royal 4to. £3. 11_s._ 6_d._ net.

⁂ _No complete Life of Vincenco Foppa, one of the greatest of the

North Italian Masters, has ever been written: an omission which

seems almost inexplicable in these days of over-production in the

matter of biographies of painters, and of subjects relating to the

art of Italy. In Milanese territory--the sphere of Foppa's activity

during many years--he was regarded by his contemporaries as

unrivalled in his art, and his right to be considered the head and

founder of the Lombard school is undoubted. His influence was

powerful and far-reaching, extending eastwards beyond the limits of

Brescian territory, and south and westwards to Liguria and Piedmont.

In the Milanese district it was practically dominant for over a

quarter of a century, until the coming of Leonardo da Vinci thrust

Foppa and his followers into the shade, and induced him to abandon

Pavia, which had been his home for more than thirty years, and to

return to Brescia. The object of the authors of this book has been

to present a true picture of the master's life based upon the

testimony of records in Italian archives; all facts hitherto known

relating to him have been brought together; all statements have been

verified; and a great deal of new and unpublished material has been

added. The authors have unearthed a large amount of new material

relating to Foppa, one of the most interesting facts brought to

light being that he lived for twenty-three years longer than was

formerly supposed. The illustrations will include several pictures

by Foppa hitherto unknown in the history of art, and others which

have never before been published, as well as reproductions of every

existing work by the master at present known._

CÉSAR FRANCK: A Study. Translated from the French of Vincent d'Indy.

And with an Introduction by ROSA NEWMARCH. Demy 8vo. 7_s._ 6_d._ net.

⁂ _There is no purer influence in modern music than that of César

Franck, for many years ignored in every capacity save that of

organist of Sainte-Clotilde, in Paris, but now recognised as the

legitimate successor of Bach and Beethoven. His inspiration

"rooted in love and faith" has contributed in a remarkable degree

to the regeneration of the musical art in France and elsewhere.

The now famous "Schola Cantorum," founded in Paris in 1896, by A.

Guilmant, Charles Bordes and Vincent d'Indy, is the direct outcome

of his influence. Among the artists who where in some sort his

disciples were Paul Dukas, Chabrier, Gabriel Fauré and the great

violinist Ysäye. His pupils include such gifted composers as

Benoît, Augusta Holmès, Chausson, Ropartz, and d'Indy. This book,

written with the devotion of a disciple and the authority of a

master, leaves us with a vivid and touching impression of the

saint-like composer of "The Beatitudes."_

idyllic and graphic picture of the daily life and gossip of the

stately but unfortunate dames and noblemen who found in Juniper

Hall a thoroughly English home."

_The Times._--"This book makes another on the long and seductive

list of books that take up history just where history proper

leaves off.... We have given but a faint idea of the freshness,

the innocent gaiety of its pages; we can give none at all of the

beauty and interest of the pictures that adorn it."

_Westminster Gazette._--"Skilfully and charmingly told."

collection of books."

Mr. C. K. SHORTER in _Sphere_.--"Miss Hill has written a charming,

an indispensable book."

Hill's narrative is interesting from the first page to the last,

and the value of the book is enhanced by the reproductions of

contemporary portraits with which it is illustrated."

letters do really add value; we can learn to respect and to like

him the more for the genuine goodness of his personality."

_Morning Leader._--"These volumes open the very heart of Carlyle."

_Literary World._--"It is then Carlyle, the nobly filial son, we

see in these letters; Carlyle, the generous and affectionate

brother, the loyal and warm-hearted friend, ... and above all,

Carlyle as the tender and faithful lover of his wife."

_Daily Telegraph._--"The letters are characteristic enough of the

Carlyle we know: very picturesque and entertaining, full of

extravagant emphasis, written, as a rule, at fever heat,

eloquently rabid and emotional."

achieved."

_Westminster Gazette._--"Few letters in the language have in such

perfection the qualities which good letters should possess. Frank,

gay, brilliant, indiscreet, immensely clever, whimsical, and

audacious, they reveal a character which, with whatever alloy of

human infirmity, must endear itself to any reader of understanding."

_Star._--"This 'Life' of Zola is a very fascinating book."

_Academy._--"It was inevitable that the authoritative life of Emile

Zola should be from the pen of E. A. Vizetelly. No one probably has

the same qualifications, and this bulky volume of nearly six hundred

pages is a worthy tribute to the genius of the master."

Mr. T. P. O'CONNOR in _T.P.'s Weekly_.--"It is a story of

fascinating interest, and is told admirably by Mr. Vizetelly. I can

promise any one who takes it up that he will find it very difficult

to lay it down again."

thrilling historical romance, the scenes of which are described by

the characters themselves, in the language of the time, and forms

a valuable contribution to existing Stuart literature."

investigating every possible fact that has any bearing on his

subject, and has succeeded in thoroughly establishing the
