# Notices by the Rev. T. Surridge ... of Roman Inscriptions Discovered at High Rochester, Risingham and Rudchester, in Northumberland/Introduction

INTRODUCTION.
ROMAN REMAINS.
HIGH ROCHESTER, RISING HAM, AND RUDCHESTER INSCRIPTIONS.
Tacitus, in his rapid haste to the eulogy of his uncle or father-in-law and hero Agricola, passes over, with a single and not impartial glance, the second expedition of Cæsar to Britain. He says, "Julius Cæsar, instead of conquering, merely shewed the way to the future conquest of Britain." Thus transferring to the brows of Agricola the laurels which had been won by the renowned Cæsar in his second invasion of this country.
On this authority Rapin hesitates not to assert that for more than ninety years after this second invasion of Britain the Britons were free.
The Roman monumental inscriptions, for some fifteen centuries buried in the earth, are now exhumed to qualify, if not to disprove, these statements, and to effect the "restoration unto Cæsar of the things which are Cæsars." They bear irrefragible evidence that, in his second invasion of Britain, Cæsar aimed at its conquest, not as an empty name, and neither did he retire, nor was he compelled to retire, from it without first securing the conquest he had made.
It is true that subsequent events and the prudence of Augustus, which made him eschew distant wars and to defer his threatened completion of British subjugation, may have left the Britons comparatively at ease ​during his long reign; but they were not free. Of this, its occupation, as appears from those inscriptions, gives the most authentic evidence,—in fact, evidence too impartial to be disregarded or discredited. We shall proceed to their explanation, and, first, the
Vide Plates 1 and 2.High Rochester Altar and other inscriptions of that station claim our attention, not from their being first erected, but because they are nearest and first obtained our notice.
Vide Plate 4.The Rudchester inscriptions bear the marks of the earliest antiquity, as some of them were doubtless erected in the life time of Julius Cæsar himself.
Vide Plate 3.The Risingham Portal inscription was probably erected in the last year of the reign of Antoninus Pius, who died a.d. 161, when Marcus Aurelius and Verus were consuls. The name of Verus was designedly erased: the usual indignity to the memory of bad emperors. The top part of the stone, with the remainder of the inscription, was broken off and lost, but I think I have successfully restored the whole, as it was originally inscribed.

RISINGHAM.
It has been before proved in my letter of the 5th of January last, that High Rochester, in the Parish of Elsdon, could not have been the Roman Bremenium mentioned in the itinerary of Antoninus, and it will now be shown why Risingham is more probably its locality. According to the authority of Camden, Morpeth was the Roman Corstopitum, and according to the itinerary, the distance from Bremenium to Corstopitum was twenty Roman miles, equal to a little more than eighteen English miles, or the present distance of Risingham from Morpeth exactly. Besides, the portal inscription found at Risingham shows it to have been a station of some importance, and its sheltered situation would induce the supposition that it was, in all likelihood, selected for the head quarters of the Roman Army, and the residence of the Court.
Southern Portal Stone of Risingham, Northumberland, discovered October, 1844.

Letter XXXVI.
To Flavian, Bishop of Constantinople.
(He acknowledges the receipt of Flavian’s second letter (xxvi.) and protests against the necessity for a general council, though at the same time he acquiesces in it. Dated 21 June, a week after the Tome).

Letter XL.
To the Bishops of the Province of Arles in Gaul.
To his well-beloved brethren Constantinus Audentius, Rusticus, Auspicius, Nicetas, Nectarius, Florus, Asclepius, Justus, Augustalis, Ynantius, and Chrysaphius, Leo the pope.
He approves of their having unanimously elected Ravennius, Bishop of Arles.
We have just and reasonable reason for rejoicing, when we learn that the Lord’s priests have done what is agreeable both to the rules of the Father’s canons and to the Apostles’ institutions. For the whole body of the Church must needs increase with a healthy growth, if the governing members excel in the strength of their authority, and in peaceful management. Accordingly, we ratify with our sanction your good deed, brethren, in unanimously, on the death of Hilary of holy memory, consecrating our brother Ravennius, a man well approved by us, in the city of Arles, in accordance with the wishes of the clergy, the leading citizens, and the laity. Because a peace-making and harmonious election, where neither personal merits nor the good will of the congregation are wanting, is we believe the expression not only of man’s choice, but of God’s inspiration. So dearly beloved brethren, let the said priest use God’s gift, and understand what self-devotion is expected of him, that by diligently and prudently carrying out the office entrusted to him, he may prove himself equal to your testimony, and fully worthy of our favour. God keep you safe, beloved brethren. Dated 22 August in the consulship of Asturius and Protogenes (449).

Letter XXXVIII.
To Flavian, Bishop of Constantinople.
Leo to Flavian, bishop of Constantinople.
He acknowledges the receipt of a letter and advises mercy if Eutyches will recant.
When our brethren had already started whom we despatched to you in the cause of the Faith, we received your letter, beloved, by our son Basil the deacon, in which you rightly said very little on the subject of our common anxiety, both because the accounts which had already arrived had given us full information on every thing, and because for purposes of private inquiry it was easy to converse with the aforesaid Basil, by whom now through the grace of God, in whom we trust, we exhort you, beloved, in reply, using the Apostle’s words, and saying: “Be ye in nothing affrighted by the adversaries; which is for them a cause of perdition, but to you of salvation.” For what is so calamitous as to wish to destroy all hope of man’s salvation by denying the reality of Christ’s Incarnation, and to contradict the Apostle who says distinctly: “great is the mystery of Godliness which was manifest in the flesh?” What so glorious as to fight for the Faith of the gospel against the enemies of Christ’s nativity and cross? About whose most pure light and unconquered power we have already disclosed what was in our heart, in the letter which has been sent to you beloved: lest anything might seem doubtful between us on those things which we have learnt, and teach in accordance with the catholic doctrine. But seeing that the testimonies to the Truth are so clear
and strong that a man must be reckoned thoroughly blind and stubborn, who does not at once shake himself free from the mists of falsehood in the bright light of reason; we desire you to use the remedy of long-suffering in curing the madness of ignorance that through your fatherly admonitions they who though old in years are infants in mind, may learn to obey their elders. And if they give up the vain conceits of their ignorance and come to their senses, and if they condemn all their errors and receive the one true Faith, do not deny them the mercifulness of a bishop’s kind heart: although your judgment must remain, if their impiety which you have deservedly condemned persists in its depravity. Dated 23 July in the consulship of the illustrious Asturius and Protogenes (449).

XXXVI. is Leo’s acknowledgment of Flavian’s second letter (XXVI.), this (which again has no Gk. version) must be an acknowledgment of yet a third, not extant, sent by the hand of one Basil, the deacon who is probably the same as Julian’s messenger (XXXV., chap. i ).

Letter XXXIX.
To Flavian, Bishop of Constantinople.
Leo, the bishop, to Flavian, the bishop.
He rebukes Flavian for not answering his repeated letters.
Our anxiety is increased by your silence, for it is long now since we received a letter from you, beloved: while we who bear a chief share in your cares, through our anxiety for the defence of the Faith, have several times, as occasion served, sent letters to you: that we might aid you with the comfort of our exhortations not to yield to the assaults of your adversaries in defence of the Faith, but to feel that we were the sharers in your labour. Some time since we believe our messengers have reached you, brother, through whom you find yourself fully instructed by our writings and injunctions, and we have ourselves sent back Basil to you as you desired. Now, lest you should think we had omitted any opportunity of communicating with you, we have sent this note by our son Eupsychius, a man whom we hold in great honour and affection, asking you to reply to our letter with all speed, and inform us at once about your own actions and those of our representatives, and about the completion of the whole matter: so that we may allay the anxiety which we now feel in defence of the Faith, by happier tidings. Dated 11th August in the consulship of the illustrious Asturius and Protogenes (449).

Letter XXXVII.
To Theodosius Augustus.
Leo to Theodosius Augustus.
Unity of Faith is essential but the point at issue hardly required a general council, it is so clear.
On receiving your clemency’s letter, I perceived that the universal Church has much cause for joy, that you will have the Christian Faith, whereby the Divine Trinity is honoured and worshipped, to be different or out of harmony with itself in nothing. For what more effectual support can be given to human affairs in calling upon God’s mercy than when one thanksgiving, and the sacrifice of one confession is offered to His majesty by all. Wherein the devotions of the priests and all the faithful will reach at last their completeness, if in what was done for our redemption by God the Word, the only Son of God, nothing else be believed than what He Himself ordered to be preached and believed. Wherefore although every consideration prevents my attendance on the day which your piety has fixed for the councils of bishops: for there are no precedents for such a thing, and the needs of the times do not allow me to leave the city, especially as the point of Faith at issue is so clear, that it would have been more reasonable to abstain from proclaiming a synod: yet as far as the Lord vouchsafes to help me, I have bestowed my zeal upon obeying your clemency’s commands, by appointing my brethren who are competent to act as the case requires in removing offences, and who can represent me:  because no question has arisen on which there can or ought to be any doubt. Dated 21st of June, in the consulship of the illustrious Asturius and Protogenes, (449).

# Once a Week (magazine)/Series 1/Volume 10/A fruitful vine

​ A Fruitful Vine.—In the Harleian MSS. (No. 980-7) we find mention made of a certain Scottish weaver who had no less than sixty-two children, and all by one wife. This family included four daughters, who lived to be women, and the rest of the three-score and two were boys, who all lived to be baptised. Out of these, forty-six actually reached man’s estate. The writer, one Thomas Gibbons, adds, that during the time of this fruitfulness on the part of the wife, the husband was absent for some five years in the Low Countries, where he served under Captain Selby; and that after his return home his wife was again delivered of three children at a birth, and “continued in her due time in such births” until she ceased childbearing. The informant of Mr. Gibbons was John Delaval, Esq., of Northumberland, who was high sheriff of that county in 1625, and who, in 1630, rode from Newcastle to a place about thirty miles beyond Edinburgh to see this worthy and fruitful couple. Mr. Delaval, however, did not find any of the children then residing with their parents, though three or four of them were living at Newcastle at the time. It appears that Sir John Bowes, and other wealthy Northumbrian “gentlemen of quality” adopted and brought up the children in batches of ten and twelve a piece, and that the residue were “disposed of” by others among the Scottish and English gentlemen of the Border Country.

The soul of a French peasant girl in a book that is mysteriously beautiful and poignant. The Goncourt prize winner for 1920. —The Bookman, May 1922
Yet this book was hawked about from publisher to publisher in France without finding any taker. When the author took it finally in its manuscript form to the Académie, its worth was recognized, and the Prix Goncourt of 1920 was the reward. Since then the story has met with steady success and the most distinguished praise. It has sold over a hundred thousand copies in France, and made its author, a poor school-teacher, famous. —from the review in the Literary Digest, 13 May 1922 [Full review(s) on the Discussion page. (Not all adulatory)]
NÊNE
This novel of French peasant life won the Prix Concourt awarded by the Academy in 1920. Its success was instantaneous. Everywhere it was hailed as the finest interpretation in years of the spirit of rural France. The sale of the book ran to ninety thousand copies in a few months.
For American readers this beautiful and authentic picture of agricultural France with its simple, rugged outlines, its sectional differences, its mighty bonds of conservatism and convention is a most impressive setting for the romance, the tragedy, the maternal tenderness and passion that go to make NÊNE a work of genius.

### CHAPTER XV

VIOLETTE was sewing at her mother's house. She was making a waist to wear at the Fair, with the model before her, in a catalogue from Paris.
This year, the city fashion demanded a rather low neckline; and Violette was trying to impose it on the village of Chantepie, where some of the girls were very dressy.
For herself she had chosen an extreme model, cut in a low point in front. Still, she hesitated to cut so boldly into the goods.
The postman opened the door:
"Mademoiselle Violette! 'personal.' A love letter, my pretty!"
She did not reply, merely looking at the curious address, penciled in a strange handwriting.
As soon as the postman had gone she tore the envelope open. At the first lines, something like pity came into her eyes for the handsome young fellow whose love had flattered her vanity and who was now damaged forever.
But it was only a flicker. Behind her red lip a sharp tooth gleamed. Would she go out? Would she go to the Fair with the other girls? Really now, what a fool he was! It was getting to be ridiculous!
She shook her brown head, bristling with curl papers, and mumbled:
"For one that's lost—there'll be two found."
And as, at the age of twenty, she was experienced in the ways of men and knew full well what bait they liked best, she bent over the basted blouse and, with two strokes of the scissors, cut a deeper V than the one in the catalogue.
