When first the nerves feel unstrung, and listlessness supplants energy, it is the right time to take some alterative as Holloway's Pills to prevent disorder running into disease. These excellent Pills correct all irregularities and weaknesses. They act so kindly, yet so energetically, on the functions of digestion and assimilation, that the whole body is revived, the blood is rendered richer and purer, the muscles become firmer and stronger, and the nervous and absorbent systems are invigorated. These Fills are suitable for all classes and all ages. They have a most marvellous effect on persons who are out of condition; they soon rectify whatever is in fault, restore strength to the body, and confidence to the mind.

HOLLOWAY'S PILLS.-Changes of temperature and weather frequently upset persons who are most careful of their health and particular in their diet. These corrective, purifying, and gentle aperient Pills are the best remedy for all defective action of the digestive organs. They augment the appetite, strengthen the stomach, correct biliousness, and carry off all that is noxious from the system. Holloway's Pills are composed of rare balsams, unmixed with baser matter, and on that account are peculiarly well adapted for young, delicate, and aged. As this peerless medicine has gained fame in the past, so will it preserve it in the future by its renovating and invigorating qualities, and the impossibility of its doing harm, LONDON, SATURDAY, MARCH 26, 1887.

The late steward, an able man, was much too ill for this work, even had it been brought to his notice. I have not a word to say as to the parts of the book relating to the business of the manor; not being a copyholder, I have no knowledge of it. It is now 1887, and as the book is still issued precisely as at first, this review appears to be called for.

PARIS GARDEN AND CHRIST CHURCH, This historically interesting and important part of London would, I think, bear a little opening up, and this I propose to do in a sort of review of the only work known to me specially devoted to the subject. The title in full is as follows: "The Manor of Old Paris Garden. An historical account of the Parish of Christ Church, Surrey, shewing how it was formerly a copyhold manor, and then became a parish, separated from the united parishes of St. Margaret's and St. Mary (Magdalen) Overy's, Southwark : explaining how portions of the manor of Paris Garden became separated and enfranchised, and the property of different owners, and (by the map of the parish annexed to this account) showing in colours what portions of the manor and parish are still copyhold. With mention of some places of interest in the parish, which existed in the days of Queen Elizabeth, but have long since disappeared. By Joseph Meymott, Steward of the Manor. Printed for private circulation. 1881. Pp. 64. With illustrations." This book, printed by the copyholders, came into my hands in 1881 in exchange for a copy of 'Old Southwark and its People.' As my custom has been for many years to read carefully and make notes upon all matters relating to Southwark history, so I did here. I found at once that the historical part was, so After the Conquest this land fell to one of the Conqueror's soldiers, Robert Marmion, and was by his son, of the same name, given to the prior and monks of the newly founded priory of Bermondsey. The legend goes that he was visited by St. Bridget, a stalwart saint, who so beat him with her crozier that he was "persuaded" to give it to the church. The prior and monks to whom it was given in 1113 granted it to the Knights Templars in 1166. It appears that the Templars constituted part of Paris Garden as a chapelry, the people crossing the Thames in a barge to worship at the Temple Church until "the barge was drowned." The Knights Templars cruelly abolished, the place came to the Knights Hospitallers of St. John of Jerusalem. It was granted in 1420 to the Duke of Bedford as "firmarius," or farmer of the district. It now became a sort of sanctuary or privileged place for any, even debtors, felons, and misdemeanants, so long as they kept the ordinances made by the Duke of Bedford. The Hospitallers in their turn deprived, the prior taking Kilburn and yielding this to the king, it is granted by him as dowry to Queen Jane. Passing to Queen Elizabeth, she grants it to her relative Lord Hunsdon and others. By them the demesne lands and manor house were conveyed to Thomas Cure, the subject of the well-known clever epitaph yet at St. Saviour's. The copyhold part of the manor passed to certain other persons, trustees for copyholders for a term of two thousand years, from whose successors the |
