Debretes Heraldry, edited by A. G. M. Heselrigge (Dean and

Son, 6s. net), is a dictionary of heraldic terms, on lines very similar to those of Hugh Clark's well-known work, but with engravings inserted in the text, as well as fourteen plates. The entry under "Dignity, Cap Of," is not likely to help the ignorant.
