QUERIES.
REV. DR. TOMLINSON.
Mr. G. Bouchier Richardson, of Newcastle-upon-Tyne, who is at present
engaged in compiling the life and correspondence of Robert Thomlinson,
D.D., Rector of Whickham, co. Dur.; Lecturer of St. Nicholas,
Newcastle-upon-Tyne, and founder of the Thomlinson Library there;
Prebendary of St. Paul's; and Vice-Principal of Edmund Hall, Oxon., is
very anxious for the communication of any matter illustrative of the
life of the Doctor, his family and ancestry; which, it is presumed,
is derivable from the family of that name long seated at Howden, in
Yorkshire.

MINOR QUERIES.
_"A" or "An," before Words, beginning with a Vowel._--Your readers are
much indebted to Dr. Kennedy for his late exposure of the erroneous,
though common, use of the phrase "mutual friend," and I am convinced
that there are many similar solecisms which only require to be
denounced to ensure their disuse.
