_Archæologia_, vol. xxix. p. 384., on the "Roman Remains discovered
in the Caves near Settle in Yorkshire." Our correspondent has
perhaps consulted the following work:--_A Tour to the Caves in the
Environs of Ingleborough and Settle, in the West Riding of
Yorkshire_, 8vo. 1781.]
_The Morrow of a Feast._--It appears from the papers, that the
presentation of the civic functionaries to the Cursitor Baron at
Westminster, took place on Sept. 30. Pray is this the _morrow_ of St.
Michael, as commonly supposed? Does not the analogy of "Morrow of All
Souls" (certainly the {413} same day as All Souls Day, _i. e._ Nov. 2)
point out that the Morrow of St. Michael is the 29th, _i. e._ Michaelmas
Day. That _morrow_ was anciently equivalent to morning, we may infer
from the following passages:
"Upon a morrow tide."--Gower, _Conf. Am._, b. iii.
"Tho' when appeared the third morrow bright,
Upon the waves," &c.
Spenser's _Fairy Queen_, II. xii. 2.
"Good morrow."--_Passim._
