Mercer's School, London, where he continued for twenty years, and
resigned a short time before his death, which took place in 1723. Baxter makes mention, at the close of his own Life and Times, of one Richard Baxter, a Sabbatarian Anabaptist, and says of him, "that he was sent to gaol for refusing the oath of allegiance, and it went for current that it was I." H.M. Bealby. North Brixton. _Duresme and Dunelm_ (Vol. ii., p. 108.).--Three _successive_ bishops, Morton, Cosin, and Crewe, took the signature of Duresme after their Christian names. Three _successive_ bishops, Barrington, {207} Van-Mildert, and the present occupant of the see, have taken the signature of Dunelm. I think, therefore, J.G.N. is mistaken in saying that the Bishops of Durham have assumed the French and Latin signatures alternately. E.H.A. * * * * * MISCELLANEOUS.
