Note 451 — LECTURE III LIFE OF ALFRED PRIOR TO HIS ACCESSION TO THE THRONE
Reading edition
See a letter to the Times of August 30, 1864, by Mr. Henry Moody of Winchester. I was wrong in identifying (Chron. ii. 87) the Compton near which Ashdown is to be sought with the Compton near East Ilsley; it is Compton Beauchamp in Shrivenham Hundred. This correction I also owe to Mr. Taylor.
