palace of the bishop of Orkney at Kirkwall, reference is made to the
Codex Flateyensis as to the burial of King Haco in the city of Bergen,
in Norway, where his remains were finally deposited, after lying some
months before the shrine of the patron saint in the cathedral of Saint
Magnus, at Kirkwall. There is not a syllable of King Haco or his
expedition in the _Orkneyinga Saga_; and as I cannot reconcile this
reference of Torfæus (2nd edition, 1715, book ii. p. 170.) with the
_Saga_, the favour of information is desired from some of your
antiquarian correspondents. The Codex Flateyensis has been ascribed to a
pensioner of the king of Norway resident in Flottay, one of the southern
isles of Orkney, but with more probability can be attributed to some of
the monks of the monastery built on the small island of Flatey, lying in
Breida Fiord, a gulf on the west coast of Iceland.

MINOR QUERIES.

_Incumbents of Church Livings in Kent._--I have by me the following MS.
note:--"A list of B.A.'s graduated at Cambridge from 1500 to 1735 may be
found in 'Additional MSS. British Museum, No. 5,585.'" Will any of your
correspondents inform me if this reference is correct, and if the list
can be examined?

Is there in the British Museum or elsewhere a list of incumbents of
church livings in Kent (with name and birthplace) from 1600 to 1660?
