_Coronet._--In Newbold Church, in the county of Warwick, is a monument
to the memory of Thomas Boughton of Lawford, and Elizabeth his wife,
representing him in a suit of armour, with sword and spurs, _a coronet
on his head_, and a bear at his feet, chained and muzzled. Query.--Can
any of your readers give an accurate description of this coronet? Or can

similar coronets? The date of his death is not given: his wife died in
the year 1454.

whether Perrault was the originator of _Cinderella_, or from what source
he drew the tale? {298} what, moreover, is the authority for identifying
_sable_ with _vair_ for the employment of either in designating the
highest rank of princesses?
