volumes. Over sixty wills recorded in
the first volume contain requests for the
promotion of religion, charity and educa-
ton, over one-half the testators being mem
bers of the Roman Catholic Church. The
most important discovery which he has
yet made is the fact, fully established by
one Of the wills in this volume, that a par
ism of the Church Of England existed in
Maryland ia the year 1645. five years be-
fore the arrival Of the Rev. William Viii

into the province in 1850. Mr.. Cregar
