* There is something striking in the few words of Judge Sewall's description of what he witnessed at Lady Andros's funeral. " Between 4 and 5, Feb. 10th, I went to the funeral of the Lady Andros, having been invited by the clark of . the South Company. Between 7 and S, (lychns [torches] illuminating the clou- dy air) the corpse was carried into the herse drawn by six horses, the soldiers making a guard from the governor's house down the Prison Lane to the South meeting-house ; there taken out and carried in at the western door, and set in the alley before the pulpit, with six mourning women by it. House made light with candles and torches. There was a great noise and clamor to keep people out of the house, that they might not rush in too soon. I went home."-MS. Diary of Judge Sewall.

SIR EDMUND ANDROS.


monument in the church of St. Martin's, Guernsey, over the remains of Amice Andros, Esq. he is styled "Seig- neur of Sausmares and Jerbourg, Hereditary Steward of the Island, Lieutenant of Ceremonies in the Courts of Charles I. and II., Judge of the Royal Court of Guern- sey, and Major General of the Forces of the Isle," &c. After his death, the office of bailiff was filled by his son, Edmund Andros, until his departure for New York, in August, 1674. The Seigniory or Lordship of Sausmares, is of Norman origin and great antiquity in the Island. The fief became vested in the family of Andros, by inter- marriages with that of Sausmares.


The fief or manor of Anneville, granted by Henry VIII., to Nicholas Fachin, remained for some time in that family, and then descended to that of Andros, who possessed it in 1675. It consisted of some 27 farms and tenants.


The late major general Brock, of the British army, who fell in the battle of Queenstown, U. C. 13th Oct. 1812, was a descendant of the Andros family.
