now, what were
the hoods of the universities of Paris, Louvain, and Bologna, for the
several degrees I have enumerated.

_"Nullis Fraus tuta latebris."_--Can any of your correspondents favour me
with a reference to the above motto?

_Voltaire, where situated?_--The "_terre_," hamlet, or other _property_ of
_Voltaire_, from which the French poet took the addition to his paternal
name of Arouet,--where situated? That there is, or at least was, in
Voltaire's time, such an estate, Condorcet's statement (_vide_ Voltaire)
makes apparent. But the locality is not pointed out. Can any of your
correspondents help me to it?

_Table of Prohibited Degrees, 1563._--By the 99th canon of the Church of
England the "table of prohibited degrees" set forth by authority in 1563 is
ordered to "be in every church publicly set up and fixed at the charge of
the parish." Is this usually done now? and if not, why is it omitted to be
done?

What is the authority for the insertion of the Canons, or the Articles, or
the table of the {330} prohibited degrees found in the Book of Common
Prayer?

_Launcelot Lyttleton._--I shall be greatly obliged to any genealogist who
can tell me who was that Launcelot Lyttleton, a Lichfield gentleman, whose
eldest laughter, Mary, married the Hon. Francis Roper, and became the
mother of the fourteenth Lord Teynham. Was this Launcelot a descendant of
Sir Edward Lyttleton, temp. Eliz., who married a daughter of Sir William
Devereux?

I could answer my own question by an inspection of the "Roper Roll;" but
unfortunately that is in Ireland, and I may not soon discover the address
of its possessor.

_The Antediluvians._--Can you or any of your learned correspondents inform
me of any work likely to assist me in my researches into the antediluvian
history of our race? The curious treatise of Reimmanus, and the erudite
essay of J. Joachimus Maderus, I have now before me; but it occurs to me
that, besides these and the more patent sources of information, such as
Bruckerus and Josephus, there must be other, and perhaps more modern, works
which may be more practically useful. Perhaps the author of the elegant
essay on the subject in _Eruvin_ may be able to refer to such a a work.
