ST. SWITHIN. J ULIU8 Casas (9“' S. vi. 407).-When I was a boy in the old city of Chester over thirty gears ago, there lived there two old men rothers, who were furniture removers and were named Julius and Augustus Caesar. This in a city underneath which lies one of the finest Roman cities in our land-Deva. I think Julius is dead, but I never heard of the demise of Augustus, who was a tall old man with white air and a broken nose. My late father told on |24 Dec., 1879, in the Christmas num- ber of the C/wshire Sheaf (which he edited), a story how, when he was once showing an Ame- rican farmer round Chester, the Transatlantic friend said, “ Well, sir, you ’ve satisfied me all out that yours is a genuine Roman city, but -you couldn’t just show me a real IVIDS Roman, could you 1” “Look there at that donkey-cart,” said my father. On the name- plate was “Augustus Caesar, Furniture Re- mover,” &c. The American went back to his New England home and told his friends that Chester was the oldest and strangest place he had seen on his travels, for he had seen a real Roman driving a donkey-cart in the streets where Roman feet had trod in the day when Deva was in its prime. The American farmer was Mr. Frederick Law Olmsted, of Tosonock Farm, Southside, Staten Island, and his ‘Walks and Talks of an American Farmer in England ’ (London, David Bogus, 1852) lies before me and is probably a scarce book now. T. UANN Hucass, M.A. Lancaster. The Sir Julius Caesar referred to in the two paragraphs quoted by MR. W. E. WILSON is evidently one and the same person. The date 1815 in the second paragraph should palpably be 1615. Sir Julius L-aesar was with Lord Bacon throu hout his fatal illness; to him the great phiIosopher dictated his last letter, thanking the Earl of Arundel for the hospi- tality of his house, and in his arms he eventu- allly died. Sir Julius Cwsar’s name was really A elmare. On his tomb he is styled “J ulium Adelmare alias Caesarem.” He is buried in the church of St. Helen, Bishopsgate, and his altar-tomb may still be seen in the Gresham Chapel at the east end of the north or nuns’ aisle. The inscription on the upper slab is probably unique. It represents a document drawn up in strict legal phraseology, with seal below, the card of attachment with which is broken. A plate {igurin§ this in- scription will be found in Allen’s ‘ istory of London’ (1828), iii. 137. The tomb is the work of Nicholas Stone and cost 110l. Sir Julius Caesar Adelmare was born at Totten- ham in 1557, and died on 18 April, 1636. JOHN T. PAGE. West Haddon, Northamptonshire.
