Obituary. Captain H. L. Thomson.
We regret to announce that Captain Harold Lyon Thomson, M.I.E.E., of 34, St. James's-street, died yesterday of pneumonia in a nursing home after a very short illness, at the age of 63.
The elder son of Robert Thomson, the inventor of the pneumatic tire, he inherited from him a genius for mechanics. This he made full use of when the Great War broke out, for, although then in his 53rd year, within 12 days he had volunteered and was out in France with a commission in the Army Service Corps, where his instinct for the quickest and and best methods of transport were invaluable. He served in the Army until the Armistice, Captain Thomson was well acquainted with French and Arabic, and was deeply and widely read. He was a member of many learned societies, including the Society of Antiquaries, and was an ardent Freemason, a past Grand Master of the Ubique Lodge. In Westminster, where he lived for many years, he did work of great public value on the City Council, of which he was an alderman. He was Mayor of Westminster in 1912-13, chairman of important committees, and treasurer of the Metropolitan Boroughs Standing Joint Committee. He instituted the daily collection of house refuse in Westminster, and introduced methods which proved to be more sanitary and economical than the old haphazard system. The new salvage plant for Westminster was the subject of an article in The Times of December 27 last. Captain Thomson's cleverness with his fingers was remarkable, and he could execute the most delicate goldsmith's work. He had just completed a fairy-like set of saucepans for the Queen's Dolls' House. He was Consul-General for Albania in London, a member of the Royal Company of Archers, a Knight of Grace of the Order of St. John, and an officer of the Legion of Honour and of the Belgian Order of Leopold. He leaves a brother Sir Courtauld Thomson.
The funeral will be at Brompton Cemetery to-morrow, after service at St. George's Hanover-square, at 11 o'clock.
At the meeting of the Westminster City Council yesterday, the Mayor (Mr. Edgar Horne) paid a tribute to the late alderman, who, he said, possessed imagination and broad views, and had a great belief in the future welfare of Westminster. Lord Jessel referred to Captain Thomson's fleet of motor-lorries, which were of enormous service in the early days of the war after Mons. Few men had so entirely and unstintingly devoted themselves to public life, and no man had give more of his best to Westminster and its citizens. A vote of condolence with the members of the family was adopted.

Layout 2Professor Marcus Hartog, the authority on natural history, has died in Paris.
Marcus Manuel Hartog was the second son of the late Professor Alphonse Hartog and elder brother of Mr. P. J. Hartog, formerly Academic Registrar of London University and now Vice-Chancellor of the University of Dacca. Educated at the North London Collegiate School, University College, London, and Trinity College, Cambridge, where he took a first class in the National Science Tripos in 1874, he went out in the same year to Ceylon as assistant to the Director of the Royal Botanic Gardens there — a post that he held for three years. On his return he became demonstrator, and afterwards lecturer, in natural history at Owens College, Manchester, and in 1882 he began an association of more than 40 years with the educational life of Cork. For 27 years he was Professor of Natural History in Queen's College, there and in 1909 he proceeded to the chair of Zoology in University College. When in 1921 he vacated the appointment, Dr. Hartog was made Emeritus Professor.

MR. G. S. LAYARD
A correspondent writes:—In George Somes Layard, whose death was briefly announced in The Times yesterday, there has passed away a versatile writer, a brilliant conversationalist, and a keen a student of art in its many forms. He contributed much to our knowledge of engravings and the various methods of reproduction adopted during the last two centuries. He first made a name as the author of "The Life and Letters of Charles Keene," a book which presented that gifted artist in a light that had hardly been appreciated even by those who had, week by week, laughed at and admired the pictures with which adorned the pages of Punch. Keene's simplicity, humour, and supreme talent were brought into permanent limelight by Layard's human touch, as well as by the remarkable selection of drawings in which the book abounded. Layard enjoyed similar success with his "Life of Mrs. Lynn Linton," his "Portraits of Cruikshank by Himself," "Sir Thomas Lawrence's Letter-bag," and "A Great Punch Editor (Shirley Brooks)"; but perhaps his lighter work was that which gave pleasure to the largest circle of readers. As a frequent contributor of stories to Truth and other periodicals, he entertained an ever-growing audience which would have assumed far greater dimensions had it not been for ill-health that often deprived him of his full working strength. The latest of his novels, "An Amateur Detective," was published only a few months ago.
But, above all, his interest and his love were centred on prints. In these he revelled, and of these he wrote until he almost made them take on a new guise in the eyes of those to whom he discoursed. His articles on "Suppressed Plates" and his studies of the various changes introduced from time to time into well-known engravings for historical, political, or other reasons gave new life to what had seemed to be the driest of bones. His acquaintance with this particular subject was unique, and his discoveries in it opened out fresh meadows for print enthusiasts to browse over. And, as a lovable man, full of joie de vivre, appreciating without envy the art of the energy of others, ready to take a modest part on any stage and always able to shine in its performance—as such he will be remembered by very many friends.

Explanation of the Contractions,
Used in printing the Records and Manuscripts copied in this Collection.
THE general Character and Appearance of the Charters and Records copied in this Collection, are exhibited in engraved Specimens. With respect to the Printed Contractions, it is to be observed, that wherever the Manuscript is abbreviated, the Print has a Mark of Contraction, as similar to that of the Manuscript as the Types will admit. The different Manuscripts vary a little from each other in the Mode of making the several Contractions. The following Explanation of the Marks of Contraction used in the Print (applying both to the Latin and French Text, though the latter is generally less abbreviated than the former), may serve as well to render the printed Copy intelligible, as also to explain the Contractions in the Manuscripts, and to make the reading and consulting of them, when necessary, more easy to Persons not used to antient Records.

Lady Tub, Wispe.
Lad. How now, Wispe? Ha' you A Valentine yet? I'm taking th' air to chuse one.  Wis. Fate send your Ladyship a fit one then.  Lad. VVhat kind of one is that?  Wis. A proper Man, To please your Ladyship.
 Lad. Out o' that Vanity, That takes the foolish Eye: Any poor creature, VVhose want may need my alms, or courtesie, I rather wish; so Bishop Valentine Left us Example to do Deeds of Charity; To feed the hungry, cloath the naked, visit The weak and sick; to entertain the poor, And give the dead a Christian Funeral: These were the works of Piety he did practise, And bade us imitate; not look for Lovers, Or handsome Images to please our Senses. I pray thee, Wispe, deal freely with me now: VVe are alone, and may be merry a little: Tho' art none o' the Court-Glories, nor the VVonders For VVit or Beauty i' the City: tell me, VVhat Man would satisfie thy present Fancy? Had thy ambition leave to chuse a Valentine, VVithin the Queens Dominion, so a Subject.  Wis. Yo' ha' gi' me a large scope, Madam, I confess, And I will deal with your Ladyship sincerely: I'll utter my whole heart to you. I would have him The bravest, richest, and the properest Man A Taylor could make up; or all the Poets, VVith the Perfumers: I would have him such, As not another VVoman, but should spite me: Three City-Ladies should run mad for him: And Country-Madams infinite.  Lad. You'ld spare me, And let me hold my Wits?  VVis. I should with you ?? For the young Squire, my Master's sake, dispense A little; but it should be very little. Then all the Court-Wives I'ld ha' jealous of me, As all their Husbands jealous of them: And not a Lawyers Puss of any Quality, But lick her lips, for a snatch in the Terme time.  Lad. Come, Let's walk: we'll hear the rest as we go on: You are this Morning in a good Vein, Dido: Would I could be as merry. My Son's absence Troubles me not a little: though I seek These ways to put it off; which will not help: Care that is entred once into the Breast, Will have the whole possession, ere it rest.

# The Works of Ben Jonson/Volume 6/A Tale of a Tub

A Tale of a Tub is a Caroline era stage play, a comedy written by Ben Jonson. The last of his plays to be staged during his lifetime, it was performed in 1633 and published in 1640 in the second folio of Jonson's works.
    - from Wikipedia
A
TALE OF A TUB.
​A Tale of a Tub.] This comedy was licensed by sir Henry Herbert for the Black Friars, May 7th, 1633, and was the last piece which Jonson brought on the stage. It was not printed till 1610, three years after his death, when it appeared in the second folio. Of its fate on the stage, there is no account; but it was coldly received at court, where it was played before the King and Queen, January 14th, 1634. Jonson probably expected little from it, for he speaks of it with sufficient humility, both in the prologue and the motto:—the latter is taken from Catullus.
