673) ; Mary to William Cuffold, of Cuffold, in the parish of Basing, Hants (Berry, op. cit. 281) ; and Anne to Thomas Hilders- ham, of Stetchworth, Cambridgeshire (2 S. viii. 170, 259 ; ix. 29).

(3) His uncle Arthur. Sir Arthur Pole, knighted in France, 31 October, 1523, was a member of the King's Household. He married Joan, Jane, or Eleanor, daughter of Sir Roger Lewkenor, of Bolebroke House, near Hartfield, Sussex, by whom he had a son Henry, who seems to have died un- married, and two daughters, Mary, who married John Sanney of Sussex, according to B or Sir John Stanley, according to C (i.e., probably John Stanley of Dalgarth, Cumber- land, father of Sir Thomas Stanley of Fittle- worth, Sussex) and Margaret or Margery, who is said to have married Sir Thomas Fitz- herbert, knighted 22 Feb., 1546/7, Sheriff of Staffordshire 1547 and 1555, who was committed to prison as a Papist soon after Elizabeth's accession, but in Burke' s

  • Landed Gentry ' this knight is said to have

married in 1534 Anne, d. and h. of Sir Arthur Eyre of Padley, Derbyshire. (See ' Sussex Archaeological Collections,' Hi. 35 ; ' Harl. Soc. Publ.,' liii. 26, 67 ; Strype, 'Annals,' I. i. 416, 417). Further particulars about Sir Arthur Pole and his family would be interesting.

(4) His wife. A and C agree with MB. DIXON'S authority that she was a Button of Dutton : but the Duttons of Dutton, Cheshire, became extinct in 1526 (Ormerod,

  • Cheshire,' i. 650), and she does not seem

to have been a Dutton of Hatton (op. cit., ii. 795). Was she a Dutton of Dutton, Lancashire ? She appears to have returned to England in 1590, from Antwerp, where she had been living with her husband and two of her daughters. (' Cath. Rec. Soc.,' v. 189).

(5) His son Geoffrey. C agrees with MB. DIXON'S authority that he was living in 1606 at " Wirehall," and that he is " said to be the ancestor of Sir James Pole of Wire- hall " ; but, if anything is certain in genealogies, it is clear that Sir James Poole, first baronet, of Poole Hall, in the hundred of Wirrall, Cheshire, was not descended from Margaret, Countess of Salisbury. The Pole or Poole living in Wirrall in 1606 was one John Pole who died in 1613. (See Ormerod, op. cit. ii. 423, and cf. ' Harl. Soc. Publ.,' xviii. 191 ; lix. 195-6).

(6) His daughters. We know what be- came of Mary : what happened to the others?

" TEWKE," " TUKE "(US. iii. 87, 130). I should like to be allowed to supplement PBOF. WEEKLEY'S communication by a note which I have already sent to DB. MTJBBAY. I think it quite possible that the ultimate source is not the G. Tuch, but the G. Zeug., " stuff, materials," in its Low G. form. Cf. Du. tuig, " stuff," as a sea-term, " rigging " ; O. Low G. tuch, " Kleidungs- stiicke," Liibben ; Low G. (Bremen) tug. This would account easily for the F. spelling tugue, with g. At any rate, it Mail do no harm to consider this. I think, further, that it makes the spelling teu possible.

"LET us oo HENCE, MY SONGS " (11 S. iii. 128). The lyric sought is * A Leave- taking ' in Swinburne's ' Poems and Ballads ' (First Series), which begins

Let us go hence my songs ; she will not hear.

Let us go hence together \\ ithout fear, the ending of the first stanza being

Yea, though we sang as angels in her ear,

She would not hear.

M. Gabriel Mourey, in translating this piece into French prose (see ' N. & Q.,' 10 S. ix. 375) gets into difficulties with

Though all we fell on sleep,

for which he offers the remarkable rendering " quoique tout ce que nous touchames dorme " ! Nor does the full ? dighi'ty of " Let us go hence, go hence " survive in " Allons-nous-en d'ici, allons-nous-en d'ici." EDWABD BENSLY.

MOVING PICTUBES AND CINEMATOGBAPHS (11 S. ii. 502, 537 ; iii. 56). In Strutt'n ' Sport and Pastimes ' is an account of ' Moving Pictures,' described by him as bearing some distant analogy to the puppets. In Queen Anne's reign, a show was exhibited at " the great house in the Strand, over against the Globe Tavern." It was then advertised as " the greatest piece of curiosity that ever arrived in England, being made by a famous engineer from the camp before Lisle." The pictures were probably similar to those frequently seen in clock-cases, &c., and were flat painted images moving upon a flat surface. The camps and armies were represented, to- gether with the city and the citadel, the English forces commanded by the Duke of Marlborough, " besides abundance more admirable curiosities too tedious to be inserted here."

Strutt adds the personal recollection of a show witnessed by him in the country about
