(in the year
1039), which of course puts his son Henry IV. quite out of the question,
who was born A.D. 1049. It strikes me (and perhaps some of your
correspondents will correct me if I am wrong) that the two English
princes _may_ have respectively married the two ladies to whom I have
referred, and that hence may have arisen the discrepancies in the
different histories: but that the wife of Edward the Outlaw was _one_ of
these two I have no doubt.
O.P.Q.
_Translations of the Scriptures_ (Vol. ii., p. 229.).--C.F.S. may
perhaps find _The Bible of every Land_, now publishing by Messrs.
Bagster, serviceable in his inquiries respecting Roman Catholic
translations of the Scriptures. The saying of the Duke of Lancaster is
found in the first edition of Foxe's _Acts and Monuments_, and in the
modern reprint, iv. 674.; the original of the treatise from which it is
taken being in C.C. College, Cambridge. (See Nasmith's _Catalogue_, p.
333.)
NOVUS.
_Scalping_ (Vol. ii., p. 220.).--W.B.D. confounds beheading with
scalping.
