LUDWELL. In an old book entitled The Motion of Fluids, &c., London, 1737, purchased as
the fly leaf states, "by John Blair jun. at the sale of Col. Ludwell's Esta" is a book plate:
Gu: between two towers on a bend argent three eagles displayed sable. Motto: I. Pensieri
stretti Edil Viso Sciolto. Underneath is printed, "Philip Ludwell of Green Spring in Virginia
Esqr." In the same collection I have seen book-pates, without armorial devices, of Rev.
James Henderson, who married Miss Blair and Hugh Orr, both of Williamsburg.
