enriched our own pages, are remarkably displayed. After copying the 

 several inscriptions from the works in which they are preserved, Mr. Lee 

 says, " It had not been my intention to have suggested any reading 

 or made any remark on the inscriptions given above in type, and 

 which are not now in the Museum ; but while these sheets are in the 

 printer's hands, the Rev. J. McCaul, LL.D., of Toronto, has favoured 

 me with a letter containing many curious observations respecting 

 them. It is his intention shortly to collect into a volume his ' Notes 

 on Roman Inscriptions in Britain ;' but as he very liberally allows me 

 to make use of his communication, I cannot resist giving extracts 

 from his letter which refers to two of these inscriptions." 



We copy the inscriptions as given from Coxe's History of Mon- 

 mouthshire, and add to each Dr. McCaul's note. The eighth inscrip- 

 tion runs thus : — 



DEDICATV 

 VRF 

 OG ES 

 VE NIO 

 MAXIMOIE 

 FVRPANo

Dr. McCaul says : " This inscription evidently meant the dedicatiou 

 or inauguration of some buildings ; and as usual the consuls are 

 stated. Read the last three lines thus : — 



MAXIMO il 

 ET VRBANO 

 COS 

 i.e., A.D. 234." 



The ninth inscription is thus given : —
