The church there struck me, on a casual view, as one of the most beautiful examples of ecclesiastical architecture which I have ever seen, and I should therefore like very much to know the date of the structure, and, if possible, the architect.
The singularity which attracts attention is the delicate tracery of the spire, which I should wish to see largely imitated.

R. Ferrer.—I have a drawing, supposed to be of Sir W. Raleigh by himself when in the Tower: it came from Daniel's History of Henry VII., and below it was written,
"R. Ferrer,
Nec Prece nec Pretio."
Could the "Notes and Queries" ask if anything is known of this R.F.?

Writers on the Inquisition.—In the English edition of Voltaire's Philosophical Dictionary, article "Inquisition," I find, among other authors on that subject who are quoted, Hiescas Salazar, Mendoça (sic: Query, Salasar y Mendoça?), Fernandez, Placentinus, Marsilius, Grillandus, and Locatus. Can any of your bibliographical friends give me any information as to these authors or their works? Let me at the same time ask information respecting Bordoni, the author of Sacrum Tribunal Indicum in causis sanctæ fidei contra Hereticos, &c., Rome, 1648.
