mas Duke of Norfolk:-- "In 15 Henry VII, he made partition with Maurice, surviving brother of William Marquiss of Berkeley (who died issueless), of the lands that came to them by inheritance, by right of their descent, from the coheirs of _Mowbray_, Duke of Norfolk;" and quotes, as his authority, _Commun. de T. Pasch, 15 Henry VII., Rot._ 1. The roll of the whole year referred to has been examined, without finding any notice of the subject. Should any of your readers have met with the statement elsewhere, it may happen that there is some error in Collins's reference to his authority; and a clue to the right roll, or any other notice of the division of this great inheritance, will be acceptable. G. _Draytone and Yong._--The following note was found by me among the Exchequer Records, on their sale and dispersion, a few years ago:-- "I praye you fellowe Draytone do so invehe for me as to Resave all svche moneye as is dewe to me from the handes of Ser Vincente Skyner Knyghte or else wheare from thos offysers of the excheqer And this shalbe yovr discharge. Written the laste daye of Janvarye 1607. Henry Yong." Can your subscribers inform me who the writer was? Mr. Payne Collier states that there was an interlude-maker of the name of Henry Yong in the reign of Henry VIII. Is it likely that the note was addressed to Michael Drayton? ROBT. COLE. Upper Norton Street, Jan. 23, 1850. _The Fraternity of Christian Doctrine._--I think I see some names among your correspondents who might inform me where I shall find the fullest account of the Fraternity of Christian Doctrine, established by St. Charles Borromeo in the diocese of Milan. I am acquainted with the regulations for their establishment in _Acta. Concil. Mediol._, and with the incidental notices of them which {214} occur in Borromeo's writings, as also in the later authors, Bishop Burnet, Alban Butler, and Bishop Wilson (of Calcutta). The numbers of the Sunday schools under the management of the Confraternity, the number of teachers, of scholars, the books employed, the occasional rank in life of the teachers, their method of teaching, and whether any manuals have ever been compiled for their guidance--are points upon which I would gladly gather any information. C.F.S. _Treatise by Englebert, Archbishop of Treves._--Bishop Cosin (in his _Hist. Trans._ cap. vii. Sec.12) refers to _Engelb. Archiep. Treviren
