WHEN CLERGY Used THE MACE.

The mace was originally q. potent
weapon of defense. originating doubt
less in that earliest and most common
weapon, the wooden club. 1t was an
essential part of knights accoutre-

For ready convenience it was hung at
his saddle bow. Says an ancient
poem:
And with his heavy mase Of stele
Then he gave the kyng his dele
The besague and baston were varied
forms of the mace. The mace used on
horseback was a. small weapon. usually
Of steel. That used on foot was much
longer and commonly of wood, with
head armed with iron rings and spikes.
1t was carried by the escorts of mag
istrates and others as a ready protec-
tion against violence. AS society auie-
ted down and its original use fell into
allegiance, the thing assumed the orr
namental appearance it now has it
being carried now as a mere honorary
form.
The ancients use of the mace intro
Guces to us a remarkable instance of
ecclesiastical casuistry.. The clergy
was forbidden TO shed blood, and as
thus the sword was inhibited it might
have been thought this was sufficient to
keep them from the battle field. But
not so. They adopted the mace.
Though they could not cut a. man S
throat, yet might they break his head.
So Bishop Atho, half brother Of Will
lam, fought alongside of the conqueror
at the bitter battle of Hastings with
great effect, the brothers being, as you
may say pair OF nutcrackers.' =
