JAMES CROSSLEY.

_Archbishop Bolton of Cashel_ (Vol. iii., p. 39.).--He was born at
Burrishool, in the county of Mayo, about 1678; graduated at Trinity
College, Dublin; was ordained deacon in 1702; priest in 1703; became a
prebendary of St. Patrick's, Dublin, in 1707; chancellor of that cathedral
in 1714; vicar-general of the diocese of Dublin in 1720; vicar of Finglas,
near Dublin, in the same year; præcentor of Christ Church, Dublin, in 1722;
bishop of Clonfert in the same year; bishop of Elphin in 1724; archbishop
of Cashel in 1729; to which diocese he bequeathed his valuable library.

He died in January, 1744, and was buried at St. Werburgh's Church, in
Dublin.

Thurles, Ireland, Jan. 20. 1851.

_Erasmus and Farel_ (Vol. iii., p. 38.).--In my _Life of Calvin_, p. 46., I
mention that Erasmus named Farel, _Phallicus_; and infer that he probably
did so from some manifestation of amorous propensities on the part of that
reformer.

A querist in your last number (J.C.R.) points out that D'Aubigné, or his
translator, spells the word _Fallicus_, and refers it to the deceitful
character of Farel.
