nd, believes that Shakspeare "has no allusion
in the present instance, except to the beauty of Apollo, and its
immediate opposite, the deformity of a satyr." Hyperion or Apollo is
represented in all the ancient statues as exquisitely beautiful, the
satyrs hideously ugly.]
_Sir Hugh Myddelton._--Where was Sir Hugh Myddleton buried? and has a
monument been erected to his memory? I have searched several encyclopaedias
and other works, but they make no mention of his place of sepulture.
Hughson, I think, states it to be St. Matthew's, Friday Street; but I
believe this is not correct.

[There is a statue of Sir Hugh Myddelton, by Carew, in the New Royal
Exchange. See Cunningham's _Handbook of London_, from which work we
learn (p. 327.) that "the register of St. Matthew's, Friday Street,
abounds in entries relating to the family of Sir Hugh Myddleton."
Cunningham does not mention his burial-place; but in the pedigree of
the family given in Lewis's _History of Islington_, it is stated that
he was buried in the churchyard of St. Matthew, London.]
_Sangarede._--The expression "sangarede," or "sangared," occurs in two
ancient wills, one dated 1504, in which the testator bequeathed--
"To the sepulkyr lyght vi hyves of beene to pray ffor me and my wyffe
in y^e comon _sangered_."--_Lib. Fuller_, f. 70.
In the other, dated 1515, this passage occurs:
"I wyll y^t Ione my wyff here a yeere daye for me yeerly terme of her
lyfe in the church of Mendlshm, and after here decesse y^e towne of
Mendelyshm here a _sangarede_ for me and my wyfe in the church of
Mendlshm perpetually."
I should be much obliged if you or one of your correspondents could furnish
me with an intimation of the meaning of the term.

a singer.]
_Salubrity of Hallsal, near Ormskirk, Lancashire._--Between the 19th of
February and the 14th of {496} May, 1800, ten persons died in this parish
whose ages, as recorded on their tombs in the order of their departure,
were 74, 84, 37, 70, 84, 70, 72, 62, 80, 90. This year must have been a
fatal one to old people. Can any of the correspondents of "N. & Q." tell
anything about the season?
