With respect to the modes of DATING ancient records, the student will find all the information he may require in Nicolas's "Chronology of History," a useful and portable work, of which the last edition appeared in 1852. Other works containing like information, but in a more bulky form, are-that splendid monument of learning and labour, entitled "L'Art de vérifier les Dates," Par. 1783-1831, 9 vols. folio; and Wailly's "Elements de Paléographie," Par. 1838, 2 vols. 4to.

From these works, brief tables of the regnal years of the Kings of England, and of the dates most frequently met with in consulting charters and other documents, have been compiled for the student's use, and form Nos. III., IV., V., and VI., of the APPENDIX to this work.

SPECIMENS of many of the more important Public Records,

together with proofs of their genealogical utility, are given in

Works printed by authority of the Record Commission," Lond. 1831,

volume can be purchased for about 158.1
