| Summary | "Notes and Queries, Number 65, January 25, 1851" by Various is a literary journal that serves as a medium of inter-communication for writers, historians, and collectors, composed in the mid-19th century. This publication contains a variety of notes, inquiries, and responses surrounding topics of antiquarian interest, folklore, literary criticism, and genealogical queries, highlighting the intellectual curiosity of the era. Readers may find topics ranging from traditional English ballads to historical figures and discrepancies in historical records discussed within its pages. At the start of this issue, the journal introduces a series of notes, beginning with an exploration of traditional English ballads, emphasizing the importance of preserving authentic versions of these songs rather than modern adaptations. The writer, Edward F. Rimbault, critiques various collections and highlights the significance of familiarity with existing literature to ensure the accuracy of future endeavors in preserving cultural folklore. Following this initial note, subsequent sections address queries regarding historical figures, literary works, and regional superstitions, painting a comprehensive picture of the intellectual engagement and scholarly pursuits among the contributors and correspondents of the journal.
