AN ANCIENT VILLAGE Two score years ago. the little slllflflllllfl Village of ELsdon con- sisted of at church. a fortified pay- 50118-89. an Inn, and a few houses mostly on the edge of the village green. Elsdon lics u. dozen miles from a railway, backed by leagucs 0f bleak moorland in N.W. North- unjrberland and at that date it; re_ tamed a strange, old-world air of seclusion. Few of the farmers had driving or riding horses, so that travelling was mostly a-foot, and for that reason folk lived "the world forgetting by the wm-lq for- no“. Tradition my! the name of the village derives from a Danish giant.

These votive gifts, in the writer's boyhood. had sunk to offerings of stick-pins. often bent, which the " ildrcn threw in-to the well-springs. (The custom of the Midsummer Baal- flres will interest the Summerside reader who wrctc me an excellent letter on the subject a year or two ago). The cockpit. where cock- fightlnpz was once carried on, and the “pinfoldfl for stray entitle, wore spill t0 be seen in the village. The Mote Hills. previously men- tioned. have often attracted the at- tention of antiquaries. They are two remarkable mounds Just 0p- posite the “parsonageW At_ first simply accumulations of diluvial drift they had been added to and shaped into their present form by theold Celtic inhabitants of the region. either as a rude stronghold or no the name seems to suggest. as u. meeting place for tribal or religious ceremonies. The Romans, it scents. occupied them perhaps us observation posts. and certainly as places of sepulchre. for many R0- man graves have been found: found a tablet dedicated to the “god maqtun-us for the safety of Anti/minus Caesar" who it (leclams was born for the welfare of the human race! An engineer once mode a section of the higher hill. and deduced that. it had been raised tvucntw fee-t, which he thought would re- quire from tlwelve to fiftcen thous- and cubic yards of nratcrinl. Lt is evident, that the British tribes who inhabited the district “were num- erous, powerful. and not, afraid of work! The ohurcih is a. very ancient structure dating from the your 1400. but. incorporating two pillars 0f Noumian design belonging to an earlier building. In one of these pillars are deep scratches made by the fierce bcrvmen of the Redes- dale district who sharpened their arrows before leaving church! And from marks on the pillars near the porch it is supposed that the vil- lagers were in the habit, of whettiruz their swords on tho conswratcd masonry. This procedure was. I found. not. uncommon in North- umberland where most of the churches were ‘half house of God. half fortress ‘gzrinst. the Smt.‘ A queer find was made in this church during some restorations In 1877. Inside the spire that surmount-s the little ball-t-urrent. were discov- ered the skulls of three horses pil- ed against each other with the Jaws uppermost: they just. filled the cavity of the spire. Now thus was fulfilled an old pacnu custrm. old- cr even thnn the earlier Flor-hum church. Over in Gvrmmrv (where marvellous - Ottawa. November M. SUMMAI!
