Dr. Lifter , Dr. Pl^bodward, and the much rcfpe&ed 
dear Mr. Gale , I make bold to addrefs the follow- 
ing Infcriptions to the honourable Society by your 
Hands. 
A Tranfcript of the firft Infcription, fent to me fix 
. Months ago, was copied by a Perfon of too narrow 
judgment to be depended upon 5 which obliged me 
to take a Journey to Rochefter , to be exaft in every 
Circumftance relating to the fame (a) : The Stone 
was found ere&ed upon two Supporters, and difcovered 
laft Year in the midft of a Heap of Rubbifh, and the 
Infcription intire to the laft Line, where the Name 
of the TreefeStus is vifibly obliterated, in fome cn- 
fuing Reign. 
The two following {b) I took out of the Earth 
at Riftngham-, another Roman Fort, eight Miles South 
from Rochefter upon the Banks of Reed’ s Water men- 
tioned by Mr. Camden : They are both Altars broken, 
the firft falling from the Top of the higheft Wall of 
a Dwelling-houfe deferted above fifty Years ; the two 
initial Letters of the third and fourth Lines broken off ; 
as 1VL1US, LIVIVS, LIBIVS, LICIVS, or 
LID I V S. The other is upon the Margin of Mr. War- 
burtons Map of Northumberland , I fear, omitted by 
Mr. Horjley in Britannia Romana among his Sculp- 
tures; but find it in pag. 240. of his Obfervations, to 
quite different, from my Copy, I am. 
Good Sir , 
Tour moft obedient humble Servant , 
Chriftopher Hunter.
