PRINCE IN CORNWALL, ANCIENT RENT PAYMENTS,
PEPPER, SPURS, AND A DOW.
The revival of a medieval custom, which had lapsed for centuries, of reader ing service to the Duke of Cornwall as his castle of Launceston, evoked a far wider interest in the west country than merely among the tenants of the Duchy. Launceston was invaded on May 23th from a wide countryside, that county. 'people might witness the proceedings of a feodal court, whereat the central figure was the Prince of Wales, who, as Duke of Cornwall, lord of the fer or honour of the castle of Launceston, stod at the old castle's gate to receive presentations in ancient form from the tenants..
The proceedings were not long, but the quint formula, the strange nature of the offerings, which were strictly in accordance with precedent, and the ad- mirable setting were most picturesque. The Mayor of the ancient. borough "and capital of the Duchy, Councillor, James Treleaven, and the Corporation took part in the ceremony in their corporate capa eity. When the Prince arrivedy the fea antry and Those who represented then were on a platform without the castle gates, and others were with them to pay, due homage to the Duke of Corn- wall. The court was opened soon after the Prince had beep cordially welcomed by the Mayor. The bayliff was the Town Clerk (MY. CH. Peter), who had helved deeply into the well-preserved records to find the precedents, and after he had ascertained that it way the Prince's pleasure that the proceedings should begin, he advanced to the edge of the platform and read the proclamation,
"Oyez! Oyez! Oyez all manner of -person summoned to appear this day at the great gate of this castle; and all per sans that do owe suit and service to his Royal Highness the Duke of Cornwall, lord of the fee, ur honour, of the castle of} Lauberston, according to the ancient custom thereof, draw bear and give your attendance.'
The tenants representatives, left the platform and stood in line before it, and the Bayliff, addressing them, said:
You shall be faithful and legal to His Royal Highness the Duke of Corn- wall and lord of this- honour for the manors, lands, and tenements you claim. to hold or represent, and you shall noy well and truly pay to his Royal Highness those rents, customs, and services an ciently accustomed to be paid and made for the same."

A "GOAT-ƑKIN MANTLE
To Councillor Treleaven fell the duty of first offering the rent for the Mayor and Commonalty of the borough of Launceston, the borough being held in fee farm and the rent rendered; 100s and one pound of pepper. The presentation was made by the Mayor, kneeling on one knee, and as the Prince received it he placed in upon a table, and gave the Mayor a white, silver-tipped rod. The next offering was one bow de arburne by the Mayor of the City of Truro, and theo Sir Hugh Molesworth St. Aubyn was called up by the bailift as repre- sentative of the manors of Lamborne and Elerky, in Euanlaniborne, and Veryan, in the West Division of the Hundred of Powder-the very names smell of musty tones-held auder knight service by the rendering of a brace of greyhounds. The beautiful black and white hounds, held in n leather leash,, had been care- fully elected, and were worthy of their place in this old-world ceremony, Sir Trehawke Herbert Kekewich rendered n pair of gilt spurs on behalf of the manor of Barton of Penrose, in the parish of St. Tudy, in the Hundred of Trigg, and Captain Stanhope Rodd gave one pound of cummin:
The presentation which followed “avas' appreciated by the spectators, less for its character than for the personality of the gentleman who made it.
