in Sussex in England, five miles from Midhurst and the Sussex Downs, and 49 from London, is a large, populous, and handsome town. It is adorned with several seats of gentlemen, particularly the magnificent seat of the Percies, earls of Northumberland, many of whom lie buried in a separate vault of its church. In the duke of Somerset's armory, in this place, there is a sword which, by circumstances, appears to have been the weapon of the famous Henry Hotspur, though it is less unwieldy than other ancient swords.
