in a large base.

[Illustration: (_In Cornwall_,)]

The second cross stood in Cornwall, on the wide waste of Caraton Down.
It consists of one block with a rounded head, bearing the couped cross.
This solitary pillar, evidently a Christian monument, is situate near a
Druidical temple called "the Hurlers." Crosses of this shape abound in
Cornwall. One has been found in Burian churchyard, and another in
Callington churchyard, bearing rude sculptures of the crucifixion;
others have been found in the county with holes perforated near the top,
and some with various ornaments on the shafts.


[3] We thank "an old Subscriber and a native of Holbeach" for his
testimony to the accuracy of our Engraving of Holbeach Cross, at
page 329 of the present volume. We shall feel further obliged to
him for the view of Holbeach Church.

We may here remark that the Cross described at page 115, at
Wheston, is now in the courtyard of Wheston Hall. Probably our
Correspondent _E.T.B.A_. will oblige us with a drawing of that
interesting structure.
