Sir R. Haigh's Letter-book

This is incorrect; no such person is known. The baronet intended is *Sir Roger Bradshaigh, of Haigh*; a very well-known person, whose funeral sermon was preached by Wroe, the warden of Manchester Collegiate Church, locally remembered as "silver-mouthed Wroe." This name is correctly given in Puttick and Simpson's Catalogue of a Miscellaneous Sale on April 15, and it is to be *hoped* that Sir Roger's collection of letters, ranging from 1662 to 1676, *may have* fallen into the hands of the noble earl who represents him, the present proprietor of Haigh.
