Cmions Historical Facts. .
During the troubles in the reign
of Charles In a country girl came to
London in search of a place as a
servant maid, but not succeeding,
she hired herself to carry out beer
from a warehouse, and was one of
those called tub women. The brewer
observing a good looking girl in this
low occupation, took . her into his
family as a servant, and afterwards
married her. He died while yet she
was a yourfg woman, and left hei
the bulk of his fortune.
The widow being in need of legat
advice, a certain Mr. Hyde was re
commended to her as a skillful law
yer, to arrange her husband's affairs.
Hyde, who was afterwards Earl of
Clarendon, finding the widow's for
tune considerable, married her. By
this marriage there was no other
issue than a daughter, who was af
terwards the wife of James II., and
mother of Mary and Anne, Qaeens
of England.
