The expression " a pot of beer " is still in common use. These pots of various sizes were imported mainly through Holland under the general name of Cologne ware, by which they were known to our potters as well as to the public. Even in Queen Elizabeth's reign applications were made for patents for the manufacture of stone- ware ale-pots. William Simpson petitioned Her Majesty for licence to import them in opposition to one Garnet Tynes, and held out a promise that he would then try to set up a ...manufactory. It is uncertain whether his prayer was answered or rejected. We set out below the actual terms of his prayer, w^m\ %:^ MARTIN WAKE. Cnlln. E. Ufarsh, Esq. 140!
