SIR,—Mr. Trevor's quotation from Leviticus xviii. begins and ends too soon. V. 17 has nothing to do with marriage with a deceased wife's sister; v. 18 has :—" And thou shalt not take a woman to her sister, to be a rival to her beside theother in her life-time."

Do or do not the last four words constitute a governing: clause F—I am, Sir, &c., 5 Florence Place, Falmouth. IL B. HrtroE.
