later English writers. The reading [Greek: kamilos] for
[Greek: kamelos] is found in several late cursive MSS. Cheyne, in the
_Ency. Biblica_, ascribes it to a non-Semitic scribe, and regards [Greek:
kamelos] as correct. (See under CAMEL.)

signify so many diameters of the iron of the common links; thus forming a
scale for all sizes.

CABLE MOULDING, in architecture, the term given to a convex moulding carved
in imitation of a rope or cord, and used to decorate the mouldings of the
Romanesque style in England, France and Spain. The word "cabling" by itself
indicates a convex circular moulding sunk in the concave fluting of a
classic column, and rising about one-third of the height of the shaft.

CABOCHE, SIMON. Simon Lecoustellier, called "Caboche", a skinner of the
Paris Boucherie, played an important part in the Parisian riots of 1413. He
had relations with John the Fearless, duke of Burgundy, since 1411, and was
prominent in the seditious disturbances which broke out in April and May,
following on the _Etats_ of February 1413. In April he stirred the people
to the point of revolt, and was among the first to enter the hotel of the
dauphin. When the butchers had made themselves masters of Paris, Caboche
became bailiff (_huissier d'armes_) and warden of the bridge of Charenton.
Upon the publication of the great ordinance of May 26th, he used all his
efforts to prevent conciliation between the Burgundians and the Armagnacs.
After the fall of the _Cabochien_ party on the 4th of August he fled to
Burgundy in order to escape from royal justice. Doubtless he returned to
Paris in 1418 with the Burgundians.

See Colville, _Les Cabochiens et l'ordonnance de 1413_ (Paris, 1888).

CABOT, GEORGE (1751-1823), American political leader, was born in Salem,
Massachusetts, on the 16th of December 1751. He studied at Harvard from
1766 to 1768, when he went to sea as a cabin boy. He gradually became a
ship-owner and a successful merchant, retiring from business in 1794.
Throughout his life he was much interested in politics, and though his
temperamental indolence and his aversion for public life often prevented
his accepting office, he exercised, as a contributor to the press and
through his friendships, a powerful political influence, especially in New
England. He was a member of the Massachusetts Constitutional Convention of
1770-1780, of the state senate in 178
