_V._ Burke's _Extinct Peerage_.

6. Gladys, da. of Rygwallon, prince of Wales, said by Sir Wm. Segar
to be wife of Walter FitzOther, ancestor of Lords Windsor; and what
authority is there for this match?--_V. Collins_, &c.

As these Queries are not of general interest, I inclose a stamped
envelope for the answers.

_The Butler and his Man William._--These mythological personages, the
grotesque creation of Mr. Grosvenor Bedford's fertile imagination, are
frequently referred to and dilated on in the letters addressed to him by
Southey (_Life of Southey_, by his Son, vol. ii. p. 335., &c.), when
urging Mr. Bedford to write a Pantagruelian romance on their lives and
adventures, which however was never accomplished. What therefore is the
meaning of the following paragraph, which appears at the conclusion of
the review of volume ii. of Southey's _Life_, contained in the _Gent.'s
Mag._ for April, 1850, p. 359.?

"We will only add, that with respect to the _Butler_ mentioned at
p. 335., the editor seems but imperfectly informed. His portrait,
and that of his _man William_, are now hanging on the walls of our
study. His Life is on our table. He himself has long since returned
to the 'august abode' from which he came."

_Longhi's Portraits of Guidiccioni._--The Count Alessandro Cappi of
Ravenna is about to publish an elaborate life of his fellow-townsman
_Luca Longhi_, with very copious illustrations from that painter's
works.

He has ransacked Italy in vain for a portrait of Monsignor Giovanni
Guidiccioni, President of Romagna, painted by Luca Longhi in 1540. This
portrait possesses more than ordinary interest, since (to use the words
of Armenini, author of _Veri Precetti della Pittura_) "fu predicato per
maraviglioso in Roma da Michelangelo Buonarrotti." Count Cappi,
supposing that the picture may have found its way to England, hopes by
the publication of this notice to discover its whereabouts. Any
correspondent who shall be kind enough to furnish him, through this
journal, with the desired information, may be assured of his "piu vera
riconoscenza."

_Sir George Carr._--Wanted, pedigree and arms, wife's name and family,
of Sir George Carr, who was joint clerk of the council of Munster from
1620 to 1663, or thereabouts. Sir George had two sons at least, William
and Thomas; William was alive in 1673. Whom did he marry, and w
