MINOR QUERIES.



_Honnore Pelle_.

Who was "Honnore Pell, 1684"? My reason for asking this is, I have a
marble bust of Charles II. of colossal size, most splendidly sculptured,
with the long curling hair and full court dress of the period, and the
execution and workmanship of which would do honour to any sculptor of
the past or present time. On the stump of the arm are the name and date
which I have given above, and I have in vain looked into biographical
works.

_Bust of Sir Walter Raleigh_.

Is there an authentic bust of Sir Walter Raleigh in existence? and if
so, where is it to be found?
