PREFACE.

"T7OR many years I have been trying to collect materials for a Pedigree of the Mulocks — my mother's family. This has been no easy task, from the fact that the family is now scattered over various parts of the globe, and from the paucity of family records preserved in some branches. There has been also the difficulty, common to pedigree-hunting in connexion with Irish families, that the Parish Registers in country parishes rarely go furthef back than the closing years of the eighteenth century, and sometimes not even so far.

I have now succeeded in compiling a Pedigree that is tolerably complete, as far as it goes; and many members of the family have expressed a wish that the result of my researches should be put into some permanent shape. In the case of a compara- tively small family, Family Histories or Pedigrees can rarely be made to pay the cost of publication ; but all difficulties in this respect have been removed in the present instance by the generous aid of William B. Homan-Mulock, Esq., of Bellair, King's County, and Cawthra Mulock, Esq., of Toronto, Canada, to whom all the present members of the Mulock family should feel grateful.

The Pedigree has been drawn up in the paragraph form, as in the case of pedigrees published in Peerages and works on the Landed Gentry. But in the latter only the principal line of descent is given in full, the descendants of younger sons being generally either wholly omitted, or confined to a few generations. As the present work is designed to give all the Mulock descendants of the original Thomas Mulock, of Ballinakill, the following system has been adopted. The children of each

parent are set out in the order of seniority ; and all the Mulock descendants of the eldest son are given before proceeding to the next son and his issue. The letter of the alphabet prefixed to a name indicates the generation, counting from the original Thomas Mulock, of Ballinakill. Thus, his two sons are A I and A 2 ; his grand- children bear the letter B ; his great-grand-children the letter C ; &c., &c. The figures following the letters show the place of a child in the particular generation. Thus G 5 indicates the fifth child of the generation that is being dealt with ; and by looking back to the next preceding F we find the parent, and in like manner can trace the descent from the commencement of the Pedigree. In the case of the later genera- tions the children of Mulock mothers are given; and to these the figures (i), (2), (3), &c., are prefixed, without any letter of the alphabet.

Distinct branches of the family are grouped under separate headings, as

" MULOCKS OF KlLNAGARNA," " MULOCKS OF BATH," " MULOCKS OF CANADA," "HOMAN-MULOCKS OF BELLAIR," &C.

The Mulocks at present resident in the United States have been retained under the head of the " Mulocks of Canada," by reason of their origin.

The folding Tabular Index will serve as a guide to the contents of the paragraph Pedigree.

The following ordinary contractions have been used : — b. = born, bur. = buried, d. = died.

d.s.p. = decessit sine prole, i.e. died without issue, m. = married.

Extensive, if not exhaustive, searches have been made in the Public Record Office (Ireland) and the Registry of Deeds Office for documents connected with the Mulock family ; and the Parish Registers of the greater number of the Dublin Churches and ot many Country Parishes have been examined for Mulock entries.

PREFACE. xi

Much valuable information has been obtained from members of the family in Ireland, England, Canada, and the United States ; and amongst these the late Thomas Mulock, Esq., of Kilnagarna, and William B. Homan-Mulock, Esq., of Bellair, deserve special mention. To all now surviving I tender my sincere thanks. I am also much indebted to my friend George Lillie Craik, Esq., for enabling me to obtain an engraving of the fine portrait of his late wife Dinah Maria Craik (nte Mulock), painted by Hubert von Herkomer.

INTRODUCTION.

* I kHE Mulocks appear to be the descendants of an old Irish family, and to have acquired their name in the following manner. Mihuc is applied in the Irish language to low, marshy ground, or to land bordering on a lake or river ;* and amongst the numerous places that received this name was that now known as Meelick in the County Galway, situate on the Shannon at a point not far from Banagher in the King's County. A castle on an island in the Shannon which was built prior to the thirteenth century made it a place of considerable importance ; and there are frequent references to it in the published State Papers relating to Ireland. When first referred to, it is called Miloc, Milloc, or Milok ; but the spelling of proper names, whether place-names or surnames, was merely phonetic until recent times, and at least twenty different modes of writing this place-name have been noted in ancient documents. These include, amongst others, Myllyke, Mulighe, and Muleek.

In very ancient times — when hereditary surnames were unknown — Miliuc appears to have been used, in one instance at least, as a personal name. The biographers of St. Patrick agree in stating that when the youthful Patrick was brought captive across the seas to the North of Ireland, he was sold to Miliuc Macui Buan, described by some as King of Dal-Araidhe.f

* Joyce's Irish Names of Places, vol. i., p. 465.

t See The Tripartite Life of St. Patrick, and the Life of St. Patrick contained in the Leabhar Breac, translations of which by John O' Donovan will be found in MS. No. 1112 in the Library of Trinity College, Dublin ; The Book of Armagh (also in the Library of Trinity College, Dublin), Caps. 11 and 12 ; Professor Bury's Life of St. Patrick (London, 1905), p. 29.

xiv INTRODUCTION.

The first document in which the use of one of the variants or corruptions of Miliuc as a surname has been noticed is the following.

In the Irish Patent Roll of 2 Henry V. letters patent are found, dated at Dublin on the 22nd January, 1414-5, whereby "the King granted to John Malmore alias Myllok, chaplain, and to William Malmore, his brother, of Irish blood by nation, that they and all the issue of the aforesaid William should be of free rank (status], and should enjoy the benefit of the laws of England, and should hold their lands, tenements, &c., to them and the issue of the said William in fee-simple, or might otherwise acquire and succeed to the same, and be promoted to ecclesiastical benefices and dignities ; and he thereby ratified the estate they already had in all lands whatsoever." *

It is not clear whether in this case the surname of Myllok had its origin in the place-name of Miloc on the Shannon above referred to, or simply in a form of the general term Miliuc, under which circumstances its derivation would correspond with that of the surnames of De Marisco and Marsh in England. But as the family with which we are concerned is first met with in the neighbourhood of Meelick on the Shannon, and the name of that place was at times pronounced in a way that was almost identical with Mullock, we may feel almost certain that the name of the family derived its origin from the residence of members of the family at what is now known as Meelick.

The first member of the Mulock family of whom we have any definite knowledge is Thomas Mullock, of Ballinakill. Ballinakill, which is now called Ballynakill (i.e. Churchtown) on the Ordnance Survey maps, is a townland in the parish of Dononaughta, and County Galway, situate about two and a half miles north of the village of Meelick.f The descendants of this Thomas Mullock, as will be seen

* The letters-patent are in Latin, but the above abstract is a translation of the material portions.

t When the late Thomas Mulock, of Kilnagarna, was drawing up the lineage of the family for insertion in Burke's Landed Gentry, having no knowledge whatever of the locality in which the residence of Thomas Mullock of Ballinakill was situate, he assumed by a mere guess that it was Ballinakill, Queen's County. There is no evidence, however, that the Mullocks ever lived or held lands in the Queen's County; and the present writer, by a perusal of the will of Robert Mulock, of Banagher (see p. 13), was enabled to identify Ballinakill as above stated,

INTRODUCTION. xv

by the Pedigree, crossed the Shannon and passed into the King's County, and an adjoining portion of the County Westmeath ; but an interest in the lands of Ballinakill was retained, until it devolved on the daughters of Robert Mulock, of Banagher, under their father's will ; and Banagher long continued to be a habitat of the family.

Another branch of the family appears to have migrated down the Shannon to the City of Limerick, where a family of Mullock is found at the present day. To this branch no doubt belonged the Rev. John T. Mullock, who was born in Limerick about the beginning of the nineteenth century, and entered the Irish Franciscan Province in 1825. He was successively guardian of the Cork and Dublin Franciscan convents, and was consecrated Bishop of Newfoundland on 27 December, 1847.

The connexion between Thomas Mullock, of Ballinakill, and the Limerick Mullocks has not been traced. Our knowledge of this Thomas Mullock is derived solely from an old pedigree of the family, in the handwriting of Thomas Mulock, of Kilnagarna (the Counsellor), that seems to be the copy of a pedigree prepared for the purposes of an ejectment brought by Joshua Mulock, of Clara (p. i), against Benjamin Ball, a descendant of Nicholas Mulock (p. 26), the younger son of Thomas Mullock, of Ballinakill.

That there were Mulocks in Banagher other than those named in the Pedigree seems clear, as the records of the Court of Exchequer show that on 13 September, 1834, William Mulock, of Orillia (p. 15), obtained judgment in an ejectment brought by him against " Bridget Mulock and Mary Mulock, of Banagher, widows," for recovery of part of the lands of Banagher, commonly known by the name of the Mill Park. Who these evicted widows were has not been ascertained.

It seems desirable, however, to publish the Pedigree as it stands, without waiting any longer to supply its deficiencies.

THE FAMILY OF MULOCK.

THOMAS MULOCK, or MULLOCK, of Ballynakill, or Ballinakill, in the parish of Dononaughta, County Galway (which lies about two and a half miles from Meelick, formerly called Miloc, on the Shannon), married about the middle of the seventeenth century, and left at his death two sons : A I. Thomas (see below), and A 2. Nicholas (see p. 26).

A i. THOMAS MULOCK, of Moate, County Westmeath, was born about 1655, and, by his marriage with his first wife Frances Meares, he had a son B I. Jeremiah (see below). He married, secondly, Margaret Conran, and of this marriage there was issue three sons, viz. : B 2. John (p. 2) ; 63. Thomas (p. 3), ancestor of the Mulocks of Kilnagarna, and the Mulocks of Bath and of Ballinagore ; and B 4. Robert (p. 13), ancestor of the Mulocks of Canada, and the Homan-Mulocks of Bellair and Ballycumber.

B i. JEREMIAH MULOCK, who is named in the codicil dated 31 March, 1757, to the will of his half-brother John Mulock, left at his death three children : —

C i. THOMAS MULOCK, d.s.p.

C 2. JOHN MULOCK, of Clara ; married, and left an only son : —

D i. JOSHUA MULOCK, of Clara, King's County. He married in February, 1774, Sarah Robinson, of the parish of Castletown,* and had issue four daughters, viz. : —

E i. Elizabeth, m. John Thompson.

E 2, Mary, m. Edward Kelly.

E 3. Sarah, m. Robert Mathews, of Killare.

E 4. Eleanor, m. Bernard Maguire.

Joshua Mulock made his will dated 21 September, 1829, and a codicil dated i April, 1832, which were proved on 28 April, I^35> by his daughter Elizabeth Thompson. Hed. in the month of April, 1835, aged 90, and was bur. in the churchyard at Clara, King's County, on 16 April, 1835.

C 3. EDWARD MULOCK, d.s.p.

These three sons of Jeremiah Mulock are named in the codicil to the will of John Mulock (B 2.) above referred to, by which they were bequeathed a small legacy.

B 2. JOHN MULOCK, of Liss,* and afterwards of Kilnagarna and Castlerea, King's County, was the eldest son of Thomas Mulock, of Moate (A i.), by his second wife Margaret Conran. He acquired freehold interests of con- siderable extent and value in the lands of Ballyard (afterwards called Bellairf), Kilnagarna, Castlerea, and others, in the King's County.

In the month of August, 1720, he married Ann, daughter of Robert Drought, of Park, King's County; and prior to the marriage an indenture of settlement was executed, dated 16 August, 1720, made between the said Robert Drought and Ann Drought, his daughter, of the one part, and Thomas Mulock, of Moate, and his son the said John Mulock, of the other part.}

There was no issue of this marriage ; and by his will dated 24 January, 1755, John Mulock, then described as of Kilnagarna, devised the Ballyard estate to his nephew the Rev. John Mulock and his heirs, subject to a small annuity payable thereout to the testator's brother Robert Mulock ; and as to the residue of his real estate (which included Kilnagarna and Castlerea) he devised the same to his brother Thomas Mulock for his life, with remainder to such son or sons of the said Thomas as he should by deed or will appoint, and to the heirs male of such son or sons, and, in default of such appointment, to Thomas Mulock, eldest son of the testator's brother Thomas, and the heirs male of his body, with remainder to the testator's nephew John Mulock, son of the testator's brother Thomas, and the heirs male of his body, with remainder to the testator's nephew Robert Mulock, son of the testator's brother Thomas, and the heirs male of his body, with remainders over. And the testator devised to his brother

* Liss (which in Irish means 'a circular fort') was the name of a locality near Bellair, in the parish of Lemanaghan, otherwise Kilnagarna, and barony of Garrycastle, King's Co., in which parish both Kilnagarna and Bellair are situate. The Parish Church is known as Liss Church.

t Bally-ard signifies 'high town,' or 'the town on the height.' It must have been called Bellair before February, 1774, as Thomas Mulock, of Dublin and Kilnagarna, by his will dated

3 Feb., 1774, nominated "the Rev. John Mulock of Bellair" as one of the trustees.

\ In this deed both Thomas and John signed their surname as " Mullock," but, in the will and codicil next referred to, John spelled his name " Mulock,"

THE FAMILY OF MULOCK. 3

Robert Mulock all his estate and interest in the holdings which the testator's father had in the town of Moate, in the County of Westmeath. The testator made a codicil, dated 31 March, 1757, to his said will, the provisions of which are not material to be mentioned ; and he died without issue on 22 September, 1757.* In the announcement of his death in Exshaw's Magazine of the period, he is described as then "of Castlerea, King's County."

B 3. THOMAS MULOCK, of Skinner Row, Dublin, and afterwards of Kilnagarna, the third son of Thomas Mulock, of Moate, became a con- veyancer and notary — then a branch of the legal profession — and was duly admitted to practice by a faculty from the Prerogative Court in Ireland, dated 22 February, 173 i.f

He married on 17 May, 1744, Mary, daughter of James Lawless, of Shankill, County Dublin, by his first wife Margaret, daughter of Thomas Cave ; and on the same day marriage articles were executed, made between the said Thomas Mulock of the first part, the said Mary Lawless of the second part, and Thomas Cave, of the City of Dublin, and John Mulock, of Liss, King's County, of the third part. The family of Lawless, originally from Hoddesdon, Herts, came to Ireland in the fourteenth century or earlier, and was seated successively at Shanganagh, County Dublin, Talbot Inch, County Kilkenny, and Shankill, also in the County Dublin. The above- named James Lawless was a first cousin of Robert Lawless, of Dublin and of Abingdon, County Limerick, father of Sir Nicholas Lawless, Bart., created Baron Cloncurry on 22 September, 1789. (See Burke's Peerage, CLONCURRY, B.)J

Mary Lawless had been brought up as a Roman Catholic, though her

* The will and codicil were not proved, and the originals are now at Bellair.

t That he was possessed of some esprit appears from the song printed in the Appendix, post.

\ The Lawless family were devoted adherents of the Stuarts; and when James II. and the remnant of his forces were encamped at Loughlinstown, Co. Dublin— which is close to Shankill— after the disastrous battle of the Boyne, the King was entertained by Peter Lawless, who then resided in the fortified house now known as Puck's Castle, on the lands of Rathmichael. A few days afterwards Mrs. Peter Lawless gave birth to the above-named James Lawless, who received his baptismal name in compliment to the Sovereign, the King, by the Duke of Berwick as proxy, acting as one of the sponsors. See The Life, Times, and Contemporaries of Lord Cloncurry, by William J. Fitzpatrick (Dublin, 1855), pp. 9, 10, where, however, the father of this James Lawless is erroneously represented as Thomas Lawless, and other genealogical blunders are made by Mr. Fitzpatrick in respect to the Lawless family.

mother had been a Protestant ; but before her marriage she became a member of the Church of Ireland, and her certificate of conformity bears date 4 May, 1744.*

There was issue of the marriage of Thomas Mulock and Mary Lawless four sons and two daughters, viz. : C I. Thomas (see below) ; C 2. John (p. 8) ; C 3. Robert (p. 8) ; C 4. William (p. 11) ; C 5. Harriet (p. 12) ; and C 6. Mary (p. 12).

Thomas Mulock made his will dated 3 February, 1774, and a codicil bearing the same date, which were proved at Dublin on 13 December, 1777. He d. on 2 September, 1774, and was bur. at Mount Temple, near Moate, County Westmeath.

MULOCKS OF KILNAGARNA.

C i. THOMAS MULOCK, of Kilnagarna (known in the family as " the Counsellor"), was b. in 1746, and entering Trinity College, Dublin, in 1761, he had a distinguished academic career, obtaining Scholar- ship in 1764, and graduating as B.A. in 1766. He was called to the Irish Bar in Hilary Term, 1772, having previously become a member of the Middle Temple in London, and kept the necessary terms there.f For many years he had a house in Eccles Street, Dublin, where he used to live in Term time ; but he never got into any substantial practice at the Bar. His tastes were mainly literary; and the common-place books which he left behind him show that he was well read in the ancient classics as well as in English and French literature.^ On 4 December, 1790, he married Frances Henrietta Dorothea (b. 19 September, 1763), daughter and co-heiress of Samuel Judge, of Ballyshiel, King's County, by his wife Frances Otway.

C 2. JOHN MULOCK, second son of Thomas Mulock, of Dublin and Kilnagarna, is only known from being named in the will of his uncle John Mulock, of Liss (B 2), and must have died young.

MULOCKS OF BATH.

C 3. ROBERT MULOCK, the third son of Thomas Mulock, of Dublin and Kilnagarna, obtained an appointment in the Stamp Office, Dublin, of which he became eventually Comptroller. On retiring from the Public Service he settled in Bath, where he d. 16 April, 1837, and was bur. at St. Mary's Episcopal Chapel. His will is dated 24 February, 1835, and was proved on 19 September, 1837.

In the month of June, 1784, he married Maria Sarah, daughter of Samuel Horner, of Finglas, County Dublin ; and a settlement, dated 8 June, 1784, was executed in contemplation of the marriage. There was issue of the marriage, in addition to three sons and four daughters who all died in infancy, two sons : — D I. Thomas Samuel Mulock (see below), and D 2. William Mulock (p. 10); and nine daughters, viz. : — D 3. Elizabeth (see p. 10) ; D 4. Emily (p. 10) ; D 5. Jane (p. 10) ; D 6. Anne (p. 10) ; D 7. Frances (p. 10) ; D 8. Charlotte (p. 10) ; 09. Harriet (p. 10) ; D 10. Sophia (p. 10); and D n. Alicia Bonne (p. 10). Maria Sarah Mulock, widow of Robert Mulock, of Bath, made her will, dated 7 July, 1838, and a codicil dated 13 February, 1841 ; pr. 12 August, 1841. She d. 14 February, 1841, and was bur. at St. Mary's Chapel, Bath.

D i. THOMAS SAMUEL MULOCK, b. in Dublin in 1789, was a man of great ability, but even greater eccentricity. He matriculated at Magdalen Hall, Oxford, on 20 June, 1817, but soon abandoned his studies at the University. He was for some time Private Secretary to the eminent statesman George Canning, with whom

THE FAMILY OF MULOCK. 9

he was on intimate terms. In 1819 he published in London his " Answer given by the Gospel to the Atheism of all the Ages " ; and he wrote various letters on Christianity to Lord Byron, whose ways and ideas he sought to mend. He delivered courses of lectures on English literature at Geneva and Paris. Several of the latter were attended by Tom Moore, and are referred to in his Memoirs ; but the poet seems to have formed a poor opinion of the lecturer. He was constantly engaged in theological and other controversies, and appears to have entered the Baptist Ministry, and to have founded a Baptist Chapel at Stoke-upon-Trent. On 7 June, 1825, he was married at Stoke to Dinah, daughter of Thomas Mellard, of Newcastle-under-Lyme. Abandoning the Baptist Ministry, he became for some time the editor of a news- paper in Scotland. During the latter portion of his life he wrote many pamphlets on various subjects, social and political, and was an indefatigable writer in the newspapers. He lived to the ripe old age of eighty, and died at Stafford on n August, 1869. An interesting sketch of his life by Mr. Aleyn Lyell Reade will be found in Notes and Queries (9th ser.), vol. vii., 482, 501.

There was issue of his marriage three children, viz.: — E i. Dinah Maria (see below) ; E 2. Thomas Mellard (p. 10) ; and E 3. Benjamin Robert (p. 10).

E i. DINAH MARIA, better known as "The Author rfjohn Halifax, Gentleman" was, without doubt, the most distinguished member that the Mulock family has yet produced. She was b. 20 April, 1826, at Stoke-upon-Trent, and, owing to her father's erratic habits, she was led at a very early age to seek to make a livelihood by her pen. She settled in London about 1846; and beginning with stories for children, she advanced steadily until John Halifax, Gentleman, placed her in the front rank of the novelists of her day. For particulars of her works and a short memoir of her life, readers are referred to the article on her in the Dictionary of National Biography. On 30 April, 1865,* she was married to George Lillie Craik, Esq. ; and she died without issue at Shortlands,

In the Dictionary of National Biography the year is erroneously given as 1864.

Henry Colgan, together with all his goods and chattels ; and as to his freehold leases therein described, he devised the same to his daughters Elizabeth and Frances, share and share alike, and to their heirs and assigns. And as to a rent charge which he had upon certain lands near Birr, he willed the same to his dearly beloved wife. He constituted and appointed his much-loved son John Mulock to be his sole executor.

He made a codicil to his will dated 21 January, 1783, and thereby declared that his wife Katherine should enjoy Clonlyon for her life, and that after her death the lands should revert to his daughters Frances and Elizabeth.

SONG. BY THOMAS MULOCK, OF SKINNER Row, DUBLIN.

i.

To you fair ladies at Shankill

From Skinner Row I write ; But first you see how weak's my skill,

Though willing to indite. In vain I to the Muses sue, When absent from Shankill and you.

Fal la, &c.

2.

Let bards of old Parnassus sing,

Or Heliconian stream, Their Muses' hill and boasted spring

Are but an idle dream : 'Tis you can guide the poet's quill, And true Parnassus is Shankill.

3.

With mirth and wit in constant flow

The happy days are crown'd ; Nor can the night's more sullen brow

Retard the joyous round. But while dull drowsy mortals sleep, There joy and love their vigils keep. E 2

But here how different is the scene !

How dull does all appear! No smiles from Moll1 or Jenny Bean,2

No Gunning3 charms the ear. How dull you creep, ye tedious days, Without blithe Nancy's4 mirth to please.

But how amidst the city air,

And all its busy noise, Can I dwell on each sweet Nymph there,

With all their rural joys ! Then let this poor sketch prove my will ; We'll sing the rest- when at Shankill.

With a fal la la, &c.

LETTER FROM THOMAS MULOCK (THE COUNSELLOR) TO HIS FATHER, THOMAS MULOCK,

OF SKINNER Row, DUBLIN.

"LONDON, Nov. 9, 1770. "EVER HONOURED SIR,

"I am so extremely well that nothing can make me better except hearing that you are so. I have not heard from you since your second Letter of the 27th of October, and this (if I misreckon not) is my seventh from London. You see the Ballance is on my side, and is likely to remain so, as you tell me in your second that while you are in the Country I must not expect to hear from you. But why wou'd you not make Bob write to me ? I assure you the Pleasure I receive by a letter from Ireland transcends all the Pleasures I have tasted, or shall taste (I believe), in England. I beg then that whether in town or country, I may hear from you. For me I will fulfill the Scripture Maxim, ' return Good for Evil,' and continue a punctual Correspondent. I write to you every Monday and Friday, as every night is a Postnight here, except Sunday night. If you think proper, I will write to you on any other night, or I will write three times a week instead of twice, if you chuse it, or six times. I shall have time enough to write, and trifles enough to fill up a Letter constantly.

"I am entered into Commons at the Temple, and have dined there these two days. The Hall and manner of dining very much resembles that of our University. The Commons are Beef and Mutton alternately, for which they charge a shilling a head ; but there is a custom peculiar, I am informed, to Middle-Temple, and introduced by the Irish Students there, to bespeak some extraordinary Dishes of Fowl or Fish, together with wine and sweetmeats, which are called Exceedings, and for these you pay before you quitt the Hall, just as in a Tavern, only here your charges are higher. There is another custom, that when a man goes into Commons first, he must treat his Mess, and upon this occasion he must bespeak a large quantity of Exceedings and give his Mess as much Wine as they can drink. Those two days past I have been treated by two newly entered Students ; this day it is my Turn, for we must all treat separately, as such a Rule is productive of more eating and Drinking. I assure you I shall stop at no expence upon this occasion, and entertain them as well as they have entertained me.

" This long account of Exceedings, Commons, &c., naturally leads me to reiterate my request of a Letter of Credit, as my Stock will be extremely small after this, I must say, unexpected Expence. There are other additional Expences, as Perquisites to Cooks, Waiters, to a Servant who supplies you with a Gown to wear in the Temple Hall, &c., all which amount to a good sum. I have attended the Court of King's Bench since Term began ; but nothing material or remarkable has yet occurred.

" If I dine at Commons one day in each of the two succeeding weeks, my term is answered. I shall now propose this plain question to you, which I request you may answer in your next. Shall I after answering this Term return to Ireland, to social and domestic

30 APPENDIX.

pleasures and to you, or shall I stay till March, and answer the two terms ? I will not tell you what way my inclination points, because I think it is sufficiently obvious.

" Last night Barry play'd Bajazet to a crowded House a second time. I cou'd hardly get room in the Pit at five o'clock. He has recovered the use of his .limbs greatly, and his voice in that part was as strong and as clear as ever. The Londoners are in general very mean Judges of theatric Merit. They are very ignorant, subject to prejudice, and very envious and malignant. It was not without indignation that I observed last night the many warm efforts to check the Bursts of Applause when Barry performed. A set of stupid Cits that durst not hiss, but would not clap, were perpetually crying out ' Silence,' when the Audience began to applaud ; but after all Mr. and Mrs. Barry's Performances were greatly admired, and greatly applauded.

" Our Pit is much more respectable, and I think much more judicious, than that in London. The Pit here, with regard to the Company you meet in it, resembles the Middle Gallery in Dublin. Here in the Pit you see none but Tradesmen, Mechanicks, Attornies' Clerks, and Ladies of Pleasure. In the boxes you see Lords, Ladies, and fine Gentlemen, who are too much employed in admiring themselves and one another to pay any attention to the performance. From this description of the Company I leave you to judge what sort of Criticks must fill the rest of the house.

" 'Tis no wonder then if such an Audience be as ready to applaud such Performers as Aikin or Reddish, as Barry or Garrick. Ross, whose playing even Scotchmen cou'd not endure, performs capital Parts in Tragedy at Covent Garden with applause. That blustering, ignorant Actor, Smith, is there admired in all Barry's parts. A Razormaker, one Savigny, has lately appeared at Covent Garden in the character of Selim in Barbarossa, a fellow without liberal education or any one qualification requisite to form the Actor ; yet he draws crowded houses. The Londoners stare, gape, and ' wonder with a foolish face of praise,' as if he really had some Merit.

" Miss Catley plays this winter at Covent Garden ; she is greatly admired, and is considered as the first English Singer here.

" I write this Letter early, for this is the Lord Major's Day, and I must hasten out to see the Pageant. In my next I will describe it, if I am so lucky as to get a place in Cheapside to see it. At all Events, I shall see the show upon the water at Mr. Barry's House, which is delightfully situated close by the Thames, between the two noble bridges of Westminster and Blackfryars. From this house you have a fine view of St. Paul's, of Westminster Abbey, and of the most beautiful churches in London. It appears to me, the most agreeable situation in this noble Capital.

" Well ! all my hurry is over.. I have seen the Pageant upon the water twice. I think it is pretty, and just worth seeing. You see about 12 or 13 Barges handsomely painted, with a great number of flags and streamers, the Ensigns of each Corporation. I cou'd not see the Procession by land, because I could not get a place in Cheapside.

" I have entertained my mess, which cost me just 25 shillings : a smart reckoning,

considering there are but 4 to a mess ; but a Templar must not consider these things, if he means to preserve himself from contempt. I have kept an account of each day's expence, and can show you to what all my expences amount, almost exactly. The Middle Temple is the most expensive of any of the Temples, for the majority of the Students there are Irish Lads. I believe you will think that a sufficient reason. I long most ardently to hear from you. I am, Sir, with Love to Bob, the Girls and William,

VERSES ADDRESSED TO A YOUNG LADY.

[By THOMAS MULOCK, OF KILNAGARNA (THE COUNSELLOR), THE YOUNG LADY BEING Miss FRANCES H. D. JUDGE, OF BALLYSHIEL, AFTERWARDS HIS WIFE.

Long a traitor to love, I disdained to obey The power that kingdoms and monarchs can sway ; But now that soft passion, exalted, refined, Directs every thought and enraptures my mind, My heart wildly beats, and my verses, if any, Howe'er, they begin, must be ended with Fanny.

2.

With her in sweet converse the evening I passed,

How much I regretted that time flew so fast ;

When mirth and good humour enlivened the night,

And heart-opening friendship gave real delight ;

Ye circles of fashion and pleasure, say, can ye

Boast pleasures so great as love, friendship, and Fanny ?

32 APPENDIX.

3-

When Fanny's fair hands o'er the harpsichord moved, My heart beat responsive to tell how I loved ; On her music and voice enraptured I hung, And harmony charmed, because the nymph sung ; Retired from the giddy, the vain, and the many, I envied not Monarchs when seated by Fanny.

4-

Should I gain the dear nymph, how happy I'll prove, When years still revolving shall add to our love ; Though time may with envy her beauties consume, Spite of envy and time, her virtues must bloom ; My bliss will be great, superior to any - The minions of fortune, when blest with fair Fanny.

5-

When age shall approach, and the Power Divine Shall bid me at once life and Fanny resign, Then thankful to Heaven for blessings possessed, May I calmly and quietly sink into rest ; May I steal to my grave, lamented by many, Yet blessing the hour that joined me to Fanny.
