an allegorical subject, such as we find in the tapestry of the same date
under the gallery of Wolsey's Hall at Hampton Court, and in that of
Nancy published by Mons. Juninal.

I believe one of the seven pieces of "the siege of Troy," mentioned in
Query, No. 3, or an eighth piece unmentioned, is now in the possession
of Mr. Pratt, of Bond Street, who bought it of Mr. Yarnold's widow.

I may add that the tapestry in St. Mary's Hall, Coventry, contains,
undoubtedly, representations of King Henry VI, Queen Margaret, and
Cardinal Beaufort. It is engraved in Mr. Shaw's second volume of
_Dresses and Decorations_; but the date therein assigned to it (_before_
1447) is erroneous, the costume being, like that in the tapestries above
mentioned, of the _very end_ of the 15th century.

Brompton, Nov. 20. 1849.

[To this Note, so obligingly communicated by Mr. Planché, we may add,
that the tapestry in question was exhibited to the Society of
Antiquaries at their opening meeting on the 22nd ultimo.]
