Notes.

[CK] Aubrey gives in colours the coat, 'gules, a bend ermine.' In MS. Aubr. 8, fol. 6v, he gives in trick, for John Wallis, the coat, 'ermine, a bend argent.'

[CL] This sentence stood at first:—'The first remarkable passage of his life was that he was an instrument of fetching Laud's (archbishop of Canterbury) head of, by being a witnesse at the tryall.' Then Aubrey noted in the margin:—'Quaere which of these <i.e. Laud's trial, or the king's letters infra> was first in time'; and afterwards altered the sentence to what it now is.

[CM] A duplicate draft of this sentence is—'and may stand very gloriously upon his owne basis, and need not be beholding to any man for fame, yet he is so extremely greedy of glorie, that he steales feathers from others to adorne himselfe.'


Lucy Walters.

[1175]Memorandum:—Mr. Freeman (who maried the lady Lake) has the duke of Monmouth's mother's—Mrs. Lucy[1176] Walters, who could deny nobody—picture, very like her, at Stanmore neer Harrow-on-the-hill.
