FOOTNOTES:
[1] The Reverend Henry Tollin, Pastor of the French Protestant Church, of Magdeburg, who has made the life and works of Servetus the particular subject of his studies for many years, inclines to Tudela as the place, and 1511 as the year, of Servetus’s birth. See his ‘Servet’s Kindheit und Jugend’ in Kahnis’ Zeitschrift für die Historische Theologie. Jahrg. 1875, S. 545.
[2] Vide Tollin: ‘Servet’s Kindheit und Jugend,’ in Kahnis’ Zeitschrift für die Historische Theologie, 1875, S. 557. We have, however, searched in vain for any evidence of Angleria’s presence in Saragossa at any time, even as a casual resident. In his comprehensive and highly entertaining work, the ‘Opus Epistolarum,’ we find letters of his from Valladolid, Burgos, Vittoria, Madrid, and elsewhere, but not one from Saragossa during the years covered by Servetus’s stay at the university, according to Tollin.
[3] Tollin (Toulouser Studenten-Leben im Anfang des 16ten Jahrhunderts), in Riehl’s Historisches Taschenbuch von 1874, S. 76, speaks as if he had been present with Servetus at Toulouse; accompanied him over the St. Michael’s bridge that spanned the Garonne; beheld the iron cage suspended from its balk above the river for ducking heretics until they died; looked on at the religious processions that filed incessantly through the streets, etc.

[5] The last edition of Sabunde we have seen is neat and available, ‘curante Joachim Sighart,’ Solisbach. 1852, 8vo. It is unfortunately without the Prologue.
[6] There is a copy of what we believe to be the second edition of Sabunde, fol. Argentorat. 1495, in the British Museum, over which we spent some hours with much delight. Also a copy of Montaigne’s translation, beautifully printed, and in fine preservation.—8vo. Paris, 1569.
