Bullen, of the late Richard Simpson, of Professor Masson (Life of Milton), the late James Broughton, C. H. Cooper, and Thompson Cooper, Dr. Masters, Howard Staunton, and Charles Knight, of Mr. F. G. Fleay, to the contributors to Notes and Queries, to the Reports of the Royal Commission on Historical MSS., and to the Dictionary of National Biography. Other literary and bibliographical information, from printed or manuscript sources, has been acknowledged in the Notes at the end of this work.

For courtesy and assistance of various kinds I am indebted to the late Dr. J. B. Sheppard of Canterbury, and the late Dr. A. B. Grosart, to the Rev. Dr. Perowne, Master of Corpus Christi College, Cambridge, and to Mr. Arnold Wallis, of that College, to Mr. J. W. Clark, Registrary of that University, to the Rev. A. J. Galpin, Headmaster of King's School, Canterbury, for much kind help and useful suggestions, to the late Rev. Francis T. Vine, Rector of St. George's, Canterbury, to the Rev. A. Shirley, in charge of St. Nicholas Church, Deptford, to Mr. J. R. Dasent, C. B., Mr. Arthur Hussey, Mr. A. F. Leach, Mr. P. D. Eastes, editor of The Kentish Gazette, Canterbury, and Mr. Henry Mead, of the Canterbury Museum and Library, to Miss Butler and her father, late tenants of Marlowe's

alleged birthplace, to Mr. Stanley Cooper, F.R.S.L., Mr. J. H. Allchin, Maidstone Museum and Library, Mr. J. E. S. Pickering, Inner Temple Library, Mr. E. W. Lockhart, St. John's College Library, Cambridge, Mr. E. W. B. Nicholson, Bodleian Library, Oxford, Mr. H. R. Oswald, the Coroner for SouthEastern London, and others whose kindness if not here named is none the less appreciated. Also, for personal aid and courtesy I have to thank the Officials of the British Museum, the Lambeth Palace, and the Guildhall Libraries, the Record Office, the Will Department, Somerset House, the Clerk of the Peace and the Officials of Westminster Guildhall, of Corpus Christi College, and of the University, Cambridge, and of other public institutions.

Finally, my most grateful thanks are due and are hereby tendered to Mr. J. M. Cowper, author and editor of so many works of historical value, for the inexhaustible patience with which he has endured my many inquiries and for long-continued kind assistance, and, if last, by no means least, to the Rev. Dr. H. P. Stokes, author of the History of Corpus Christi College, Cambridge, who has furnished me with so much friendly aid and valuable information during a lengthy series of years, and to whom I am deeply indebted for many interesting items in elucidation of Marlowe's career, amongst others for the fact that the poet was elected to at least one and

apparently, a second scholarship at Corpus Christi College. This last discovery disposes for ever of the surmise that Marlowe was a pensioner at the University, and dependent upon a patron's bounty. JOHN H. INGRAM.
