In Ciaconius (_Vitae et Res Gestae Pontificum_, Rome, 1630), there is a list
of all the cardinals created up to that date, with their armorial bearings;
and the only instances of France and England quarterly (which is, no doubt,
what is intended), are those of Cardinal Beaufort, Bishop of Winchester,
and Cardinal Hallum, Bishop of Salisbury. I can find no mention anywhere of
the family of Cardinal Hallum, or Hallam; and should be glad to know who he
was descended from, and why he had those arms assigned to him by Ciaconius,
who is tolerably correct.
