"remember the fate of Sir George Lockhart," to which he replies "that the fate of Chiesley of Dalry was a sufficient warning to any one who should dare to assume the office of avenger of his own imaginary wrongs" (chap. iii.). Probably the mutilation of Chiesley before his execution was the last instance of the kind in Scotland or in Great Britain, though this cruel punishment was occasionally inflicted, certainly prior to that time, in England. It, as may be remembered, was the usual penalty for drawing a sword or striking a blow within the precincts of the Court. Nearly one hundred years afterwards, in 1792, Jacob Johan Ankarström, who had assassinated Gustavus III., King of Sweden, had his right hand cut off prior to his execution at Stockholm, and the pistol suspended over his head.

It would appear that the body of Sir George was first buried within the walls of the old Greyfriars Church (see 'Epitaphs and Monumental Inscriptions in Greyfriars Churchyard,' pp. lxxv and 309), but, on the same authority, it must have been removed in after years to the tomb of Sir Eustace of Castlemore.

SIR GEORGE LOCKHART OF LEE.

Mackenzie's death in 1691.

Though carefully examining the mausoleum on a recent visit to Edinburgh, no inscription or date could be discovered upon it. The above-quoted book gives a long Latin epitaph upon Sir George Mackenzie as taken from Monteith's Theatre of Mortality,' published in 1704. It also gives another inscription in English on Sir George Lockhart, and mentions that he is interred in the same tomb. It further records that in the same tomb is buried Lord Roystoun, a lord of session, who died in 1744, the cousin and son-in-law of Sir George Mackenzie. Mackenzie and Lockhart were great rivals in life, and it seems singular that their ashes should rest in the same sepulchre in death.

This great lawyer, President of the Court of Session, of whom Burnet says, "He was the most learned lawyer and best pleader I have ever yet known in any nation," was assassinated on Sunday, March 31, 1689, by John Chiesley of Dalry. This event took place at the head of the Old Bank Close, in Edinburgh, as Sir George Lockhart was returning from church, and was an attempt at revenge for the President having assigned an alimony, or annual income, of 931. to the wife and children of Chiesley, who were presumably deserted by him. Presumably there is a vault beneath the mausoThe murderer was taken "red-handed," as it was leum, and the portion above ground is unoccupied. called, before the provost and magistrates of Edin-Robert Chambers, in his 'Traditions of Edinburgh,' burgh, and sentenced to be hanged at the Cross, with the pistol with which he had done the deed suspended from his neck, first having had his right hand struck off.

The death of Sir George Lockhart and the execution of Chiesley, which took place almost mmediately afterwards on April 3, 1689, are alluded to in 'The Bride of Lammermoor.' Blind Alice, on his visit to her cottage, bids the Lord Keeper, Sir William Ashton, before pushing matters to extremities with the Ravenswoods, to

p. 107, tells a story of a youth named Hay, who was under sentence of death in the Tolbooth, escaping thence, and concealing himself in this mausoleum, of which he had in some way obtained the key. The story proceeds to say that he lay concealed in the tomb for six weeks, being supplied with food by the boys of Heriot's Hospital, which is close to the churchyard. Hay ultimately escaped abroad. This story is indeed strange, if true, but the authority for it is good.

THE INNS OF CHANCERY.

antients in turn had the right of nomination to certain sets of chambers. The person nominated had to pay a sum calculated on the rental of the chambers, and to purchase as freehold for life only possibly 400l. This was paid to the upper table and divided amongst them. "Spoil" a gentleman who writes to the Times would no doubt call it; and so thought the unfortunate fellow who had been twenty years at the lower table and had lost the friend (most likely his father) who had introduced him to the inn, and had no chance of ever getting up and dividing the "spoil."

I find this note longer than I had the least idea of, and I have not got half through my story; possibly this accounts for the outsiders being allowed to have the matter all their own way. ANOTHER ANTIENT.

(To be continued.)

Sarah Siddons (the tragédienne) left three children who married, namely, Henry, George, and Cecilia.

It would appear that the profession generally know as little of the difference between an Inn of Chancery and an Inn of Court as the public. This is probably due to the private nature of the former. It would be as difficult for the Inns of Court to dissolve and divide as it is easy for the Inns of Chancery. The Inns of Court have clear and distinct duties to perform amongst those they call to the Bar. They have never divided their income, and are admittedly not private societies. The Inns of Chancery have no duties whatever, and have always divided their income. They originated by a few solicitors clubbing together to get a lease of a property which in early days was known as or called an inn, though possibly confined to lawyers. They dubbed themselves "antient" and "honourable" (a common assumption years ago), and were no doubt pleased if they could get people MRS. SIDDONS'S DESCENDANTS.-In Mr. Percy to believe they formed part of a "legal university"; Fitzgerald's Lives of the Kembles' a list of Mrs. but nothing of the kind was ever vouchsafed to Siddons's descendants is given,* but is somewhat them. The selfish character of these inns possibly pre-name must become extinct. In case there may be incomplete, and leads to the inference that her vented their assuming any public functions. I any readers of N. & Q.' who take an interest in will show what I mean by selfish. The members the subject, I venture, as the male representative would have been glad to have undertaken any of her name, to supplement as under the list in public duty provided they lost none of their per- question. sonal privileges; but one was inconsistent with the other. To show what the personal privileges were I must go into the constitution. The Inns of Chancery were formed thus with slight variations. There was a head or principal, with twelve antients, or rulers. These for centuries not only governed the inn, but they divided the surplus income of the property their predecessors had leased or purchased, so that it can be well understood that they were jealous of anything that would diminish their income from this source. They alone had the power of admitting to their inn students, who when admitted were called members, or commoners, or fellows. These latter had to enter into a bond to pay dues and for good conduct, &c., and to pay for the privilege of joining not only to the antients, or upper table, but also to the fellows, or lower table. "Upper "and" lower" table well illustrates the gastronomic objects of the society. No doubt the fellows had not much to pay on admission to the inn-probably 20l. would cover it--but neither was it worth much. The only privilege they had was that of dining at their own expense four times a year. They might never get to the upper table, and frequently never did. They had to be "qualified" before they could be called up; but the antients could, and sometimes did, qualify an outsider, make him a fellow, and call him up over the heads of the other fellows, who had, perhaps, been members of the inn twenty years.

The qualification was obtained thus. The
