Serius, where situated? (Vol. iii., p. 494.).

—The Serius, now Serio, rises in the chain of mountains in the south of the Valteline, between the lakes Como and Ixo: it flows through a valley called the Val Seria, passes near Bergamo and Cremona, and falls into the Adda a little before that river joins the Po.

Corpse passing makes a Right of Way (Vol. iii., pp. 477. 507. 519.).

—Some time ago, I buried in our churchyard a person from an adjoining parish; but, instead of taking a pathway which led directly from the house of the deceased to the church, they kept to the high-road,—so going four miles instead of one. When I asked the reason, I was told that the pathway was not a lich-road, and therefore it was not lawful to bring a corpse along it.

The Petworth Register (Vol. iii., p. 510.; Vol. iv., p. 27.).

—Your correspondents LLEWELLYN and J. S. B. do not appear to be acquainted with Heylyn's quotations from the book thus designated. In one place (p. 63., folio; vol. i. p. 132., 8vo.) he refers to it for a statement—

"That many at this time [A.D. 1548] affirmed the most blessed Sacrament of the altar to be of little regard," &c.
