by Achilles.
(See Virg. _Aen._ I. 489., '_Nigri_ Memnonis arma.') It does not,
however, appear that Memnon had any sister. Tithonus, according to
Hesiod, had by Aurora only two sons, Memnon and Emathion, _Theog._ 984.
This lady is a creation of the poet."]

_"Oh! for a blast," &c._--Who was the author of the couplet--

"Oh! for a blast of that dread horn,
On Fontarabian echoes borne?"

A. J. DUNKIN.

[The lines--

"O for the voice of that wild horn,
On Fontarabia's echoes borne,
The dying hero's call,"--

are by Sir Walter Scott, and form part of those which excited the
horror of the father of Frank Osbaldiston, when he examined his
waste-book in search of _Reports outward and inward_--Corn Debentures,
&c. See _Rob Roy_, chap. ii. p. 24. ed. 1829.]

_Robin Hood's Festival._--Can any of your correspondents refer me to a good
account of the festival of Robin Hood, which was so popular with our
ancestors, that Bishop Latimer could get no one to come to hear him preach
on that day?

In the churchwardens' accounts of St. Helens, Abingdon, published in the
first volume of the _Archaeologia_, there is an entry in 1566 of the sum of
18d. paid for "setting up Robin Hood's Bower."

R. W. B.

[The best account of Robin Hood's festival on the first and succeeding
days of May is given in _Robin Hood: a Collection of all the Ancient
Poems, Songs, and Ballads, relative to that celebrated Outlaw_; [by
Joseph Ritson], among the notes and illustrations in vol. i. pp.
xcvii--cx. Consult also _A Lytell Geste of Robin Hode_, by John Matthew
Gutch, vol. i. pp. 60--64.; and George Soane's _New Curiosities of
Literature_, vol. i. pp. 231--236.]

_Church in Suffolk._--In restoring a church in Suffolk, apparently of the
date of Henry VII., except two Norman doors, the walls were found full of
Norman mouldings of about 1100, or not much after. Will you kindly give me
a list of the works where I may be likely to find an account of this
original church? Davy and Jermyn's _Suffolk_, in the British Museum, says
nothing about it. The two Norman doors are universally admired, and the
church is now Norman still throughout. In the reconstruction of about 1100,
the two doors do not seem to have been in any way restored or meddled with.

in Suckling's _Antiquities
