The letter patent granted for the dignity Of baron cost G150, and for that Of baronet 9100, payable to the board Of inland revenue. Other ex- penses to be incurred by the newly honored include erests or new coats of-arms. while some wish to have their genealogical trees properly made out. Consequently the Heralds col iege is busy after the issue of a list or honors, and the total expenses of baron are not far short of G400.
 and those of a baronet exceed G20O.
