65 "Damatcore," or "Vamaccore," in Numidia.
66 [Here we may think as we choose as to this conclusion, but the appeal to Holy Scripture proves that this is the only infallible authority.]
69 Aeptij Mikra-a city of Byzacena.
70 Tabors, a city of Mauritania Caesariensis.
71 Apparently in reference to Mark xvi. 17, 18.
74 A city of Zeugitana -" Sicilibra," thirty-four miles from Carthage.
75 Probably "Garra," a city of Mauritania Caesariensis, or "Garriana," a city of Byzacena.
76 [Referring to Acts xxii. 16 and John xx. 23.]
77 A city of Zeugitana, famous as being the place of Cato's death now called Byzerta.
78 Scil. "urbs," a city of Byzacena. The epithet refers to its being a place frequented by the veterans of German cohort, and distinguishes it from "Abbiritana."
85 Otherwise "Bobba," a city of Mauritania.
89 This seems to be "Ausana" or "Ausagga."
91 The Oxford reads "Another Saturninus."
93 Manifestly, says the Oxford editor, this expression refers to "Jupiter the father of gods and men."
94 A city of Numidia; the scene of Hannibal's overthrow by Scorpio.
95 (The Nicene Creed is emphatic in the article based on this idea; and it proves that the primitive discipline of penitence was not in those days a "sacrament of absolution," to which all were compelled to submit. Private confessions seem to have been unknown.]
96 "Usilla," a city of Byzacena.
97 Possibly "Cerbaliana" in Byzacena.
99 [The bearings of this simple statement upon the later claims of Stephen's See must not be overlooked.]
100 A city of Numidia Byzacenae.
102 A city of Zeugitana; some read "Tumida."
104 A city of Mauritania Caesariensis. Fell observes that in Numidia are many cities of the name of "Nova" or "Noba."

113 A village belonging to Byzacene, seventy-five miles from Carthage.
117 Called in some editions "a martyr from the schismatics."
120 [Noteworthy examples of episcopal modesty. In the colleges of bishops, however, it is now usual to call upon juniors first, that, if they should think differently from older brethren, their free opinion need not be restrained by deference.]
121 A city of Zeugitana, called Diarrhytus because of the number of the streams that water it. The name is otherwise read "Hippo Diarrhytorum."
