Court of Aldermen to enable them legally to transact their business at .
the Marshal's Office, which had been assigned to, them for that purpose'
by the Lord Mayor immediately atter the destruetion of the office here-
tofore used for that purpose, which formed part of the late Royal ir

mittee.
The Loon Mavox informed the Court that he had received an appli—'
cation from the senior page of her Majesty to be made free of the City,
pursuant to custom after a regal visit. Some discussion ensued as to
the nature of the application, which was put an and to by`the Court ',-
adopting the suggestion of the Recorder, to act according to precedent:
The Court was occupied a considerable time in hearing and deciding
op various ineffixtual appeals against serving parochial offices.
