Worm of Lambton

By A. C.

"A.C." is informed that there is an account of this "Worme" in *The Bishoprick Garland*, published by the late Sir Cuthbert Sharpe in 1834; it is illustrated with a view of the Worm Hill, and a woodcut of the knight thrusting his sword with great *nonchalance* down the throat of the Worme. Only 150 copies of the *Garland* were printed.
