_Wife of James Torre._-James Torre, the Yorkshire antiquary, married for

his first wife Elizabeth Lincolne (see _Ducatus Leod._, p. 119. Whitaker's

ed.); can any one inform me who was that lady's father, and if there is any

pedigree known of the family?

I have little doubt that the Rev. William Lincolne, rector of Halton,

Lincolnshire, mentioned by Walker, in his _Sufferings of the Clergy_, b.

ii. p. 295., was of the same family.

_"The Bear's Bible."_--In the library of Queen's College, Oxon, is a copy

of the Spanish version of the Bible, by Cassiod. Reyna (1569), with the

following inscription:--

Ampliss. Antistiti. ac Dno R^{mo} D. Edmundo Grindalo, archiepiscopo

Cantuariensi, et totius Angliae primati digniss. _Ob erepta hujus

Hispanicae versionis sacrorum librorum Scripta ex hostium manibus_

Cassiodorus Reinius ejusdem versionis author gratitudinis ergo et in

perpetuae observantiae pignus D.D.D."

What are the circumstances here alluded to?
