Lord Mayor.—­The first Lord Mayor who went by water to Westminster, was John Norman, in 1453.  Sir John Shaw, according to Lambard, was the first who rode on horseback, in 1501; but Grafton says, correctly, that they rode before.  Sir Gilbert Heathcote was the last, in Queen Anne’s time.  Before building the Mansion-House, the first stone of which was laid Oct. 25, 1739, the Lord Mayor resided in the hall of some Company, hired for the term of the mayoralty.
