probably included more than the dry docks, known as Wigram's and Green's;
_e.g._, in Sir Thomas Brame's _Letters_, dated 29th Sept. 1666, we read:

"Blackwall hath the largest wet dock in England, and belongs chiefly to
the East India Company."--Sir Thos. Brame's _Letters_, edit. Wilkin, t.
i. p. 135.

_Wives of Ecclesiastics_ (Vol. i., p. 149.).--In Archdeacon Hale's _Curious
Precedents in Criminal Causes_, p. 23., under 1490, and in the parish of S.
Nicholas, Coldharbour, London, we read:

"Nicholai Colde.--Johannes Warwick quondam clericus parochie ibidem
adulteravit cum Rosa Williamson et ob amorem illius mutilavit et quasi
interfecit uxorem propriam."

We may remark that the delinquent is not called Dominus, but "clericus
parochie."

_Stephens' Sermons_ (Vol. i., p. 334.).--The sermons referred to by
BALLIOLIENSIS, with a suggestion that they may be those of the Rev. W.
Stephens, were preached by Rev. Samuel Johnson, vicar of Great, and rector
of Little Torrington. Stephens was subsequently vicar of St. Andrew's,
Plymouth, a living then in the gift of the corporation.
