422. JARVIS. _Jarvis._
Armorial. Pictorial. A very handsome and peculiar plate, in which the shield resembles a wind-filled sail; angry waves roll at the foot, and a part of a mast and sail are seen. The ornamentation at the sides takes the form of trees and sprays of holly, while roses appear at the sides. Motto, _Adversis major par secundis_.
423. JARVIS. _Samuel Farmar Jarvis. D.D._

In the steeple of Christ Church, Boston, in which the lanterns of Paul Revere were hung, a chime of eight bells, made by Abel Rudhall of Gloucester, England, was placed in 1744; each bell bears an inscription; on the sixth we read that the subscriptions for these bells was completed by Robert Jenkins and John Gould, Church Wardens, Anno 1744.
430. JOHNSON. (Anonymous.)
Armorial. Chippendale. Motto, _Deo regique debeo_. The shield rests upon an elaborately carved pedestal, on which the supporters, American Indians, stand. This is very probably the plate of Sir William Johnson, nephew of Admiral Sir Peter Warren, and colonial agent of George II. for the control of Indian affairs in the colony of New York (1756). Still, the plate seems hardly old enough to have been his, and may have been his son’s. Only one copy is known to the writer.

432. JOHNSON. _Thomas Johnson._
Armorial. Chippendale; rather wild. No motto. The design is supported upon four short columns which rest upon a large shell. Query: Is this an early effort of Hurd’s (as it resembles his work), or is it the work and plate of Johnson, the engraver and herald painter?

The volumes are piled in three tiers about an open scroll which is suspended in the centre and which bears the arms. On the copy before me the letter _G_ is written before the name. Of Maryland.
437. JOHNSTON. _John Johnston._

450. KEMBLE. _Peter Kemble._

457. KING. _Sally King, Owner._ Pictorial. A peculiar plate, drawn in ink, by hand. Two columns support an entablature, in the centre of which a large representation of a mariner’s compass is given. The motto, _Cherish Virtue_, is on the circular frame enclosing it. The work on all parts of the design is very fine, and shows a master hand. Not many of these plates are known, but a few are certainly known to have been in use. They were, presumably, the work of some member of the family who was efficient with the pen, and had time and inclination to use his talent thus. Although dating probably about 1800, the ink is fresh, and the plate clear and excellently drawn.

By his side a very docile, even weakly appearing lamb, listens while he plays the flageolet. A prominent lawyer in New York in the middle of the last century.
