22 Information from Mr. Philip Corder who kindly sent the drawing (fig. 12) and adds that no part of the actual base was recovered, but the thickening of the side towards the junction with it makes the height of the vessel clear; across the rim and uppermost white band a number of strokes had been made while the slip was wet, apparently with the finger-end.

29 When measurements are quoted the width precedes the height.

30 CIL vii, 451; LS 683. Mr. I. A. Richmond suggested that this might prove to be the reading, and the writer confirmed it by inspection and photography.

31 The vicar, the Rev. W. N. R. Naylor, kindly pointed it out. It is matched by CIL vii, 843, LS 393, now in Lanercost Crypt, but it is not the same as CIL vii, 845, LS 392, which Bruce sought there in vain.
