e Meschines, Earl of
Chester, in the baronies of Stanyton, Wigton, Doudryt, Waverton,
Blencoyd, and Kirkbride, in the county of Cumberland; and the said
Odardus built Wigton church and endowed it. He lived until King John's
time. Henry I. confirmed the grant of the barony to him, by which it is
probable that he lived a hundred years. He had issue Adam. Adam had
issue Odard, the lord, whose son and heir, Adam the Second, died
without issue, and Odard the Fourth likewise," &c.--Denton's _MS._

Of the branch settled in Staffordshire and Warwickshire--

"Hugo de Loges married, tempo Richard I., Margerie, daughter and
heiress of Robert de Brok. By this marriage Hugo became possessed of
the manor of Casterton in Warwickshire. He was forester of Cannock
chace. He had issue Hugo de Loges, of Chesterton, whose son and heir,
Sir Richard de Loges, died 21st of Edward I. Sir Richard had issue two
sons, Richard and Hugo. The eldest, Richard of Chesterton, left issue
an only daughter, Elizabeth, married to Nicholas de Warwick. The issue
of this marriage was John de Warwick, whose daughter and heiress,
Eleonora, married Sir John de Peto, and brought the manor of Chesterton
into that family."--Dugdale.

SHAKSPEARE'S "ANTONY AND CLEOPATRA."

(Vol. iii., p. 139.)

The scene in _Antony and Cleopatra_ contains two expressions which are in
_Henry VIII._--

"Learn this, Silius."
"Learn this, brother."--_Hen. VIII._

"The Captain's captain."
"To be her Mistress' mistress, the Queen's queen."--_Hen. VIII._

The first of these passages is in a scene in _Henry VIII._, which MR.
HICKSON gives to Fletcher (and of which, by-the-bye, it may be observed,
that, like the scene in _Antony and Cleopatra_, it has nothing to do with
the business of the play). The other is in a scene which he gives to
Shakspeare.

But, perhaps, there may be doubts whether rightly. I am exceedingly
ignorant in Fletcher; but here is a form of expression which occurs twice
in the scene, which, I believe, is more conformable to the practice of
Fletcher:--

"_A_ heed was in his countenance."
"And force them with _a_ constancy."

There is very great stiffness in the versification: one instance is quite
extraordinary:

"Yet I know her for
A spleeny Lutheran; and not wholesome to
Our cause, that she s
