Minor Queries with Answers. _Roman Roads in England._--Whose is the best treatise on the Roman roads in England? PRESTONIENSIS. [Although the credit and fidelity of Richard of Cirencester have frequently been attacked, still, as {326} Gibbon remarks, "he shows a genuine knowledge of antiquity very extraordinary for a monk of the fourteenth century." In 1809, an edition was published in London, entitled _The Description of Britain_, translated from Ricardus of Cirencester, with the original treatise _De Situ Britanniae_, with a map and a fac-simile of the MS., as well as a Commentary on the Itinerary. It has been reprinted in the _Six Old English Chronicles_ in Bohn's _Antiquarian Library_, but without the map. The Itinerary contains eighteen journeys, which Richard says he compiled from certain fragments written by a Roman general, and from Ptolemy and other authors. He mentions 176 stations, while Antoninus has only 113.] _Inscription on the Brass of Sir G.

Each word is separated by the letter [Old English M], and a demi-rose conjoined. The part enclosed in brackets is now lost, but was remaining in Gough's time: "Funda de per a dieu loange et dieu pur lalme de lui al [dieu quil est pete ei(t) ceste]." This is the order in which the words now stand; but as they are quite unintelligible, and the fillet shows evident signs of having been broken in several places, we may reasonably suppose that they were misplaced when the brass was moved from its original slab. The principal word, about which I am in difficulty, is _pete_. Can it be the same as "pitie?" If so, I venture to suggest the following explanation, till some one may offer me a better: "... _fils_ de pere _qui_ funda ceste _place_, a dieu est loange et qu'il eit pitie, _priez_ pur l'alme de lui a dieu." The words printed in Italics are supplied to complete the sense. F. G. [Perhaps the following words in Italics may be supplied for those obliterated: "Ceste _Chaunterie estait_ fonde de part _de George Felbrigge, Ch^r._ A Dieu _soit_ loange _et gloire_ ... priez pur l'asme de lui a Dieu quil eit pite ..."
