The Ruins of the Roman City of Uriconium, at Wroxeter, near Shrewsbury 62425 [Author: Thomas Wright] [Link: http://www.gutenberg.org/6/2/4/2/62425 ] [Files: 62425-0.txt; 62425-h.htm] For those wishing to know: the villiage of Wroxeter, near Shrewsbury, England, has one of the finest set of Roman remains in the country. At this time Wright wrote his book (1859) not all of it was visible, having been covered by earth, but there was still plenty that had been found, etc. It's a mix between a guide book and an antiquarian book. All the best, David England with gray clouds and a bit of sun

Talk about Socialism with an old shopmate, by Anonymous 62420 [Link: http://www.gutenberg.org/6/2/4/2/62420 ] [Files: 62420-0.txt; 62420-h.htm] For those wishing to know: a short religious tract, published by the UK Religious Tract Society. Strangely for a religious group, they published lots of tracts against Socialism, so I transcribed this to find out why. Robert Owen, a socialist reformer in the UK, was also an atheist, and the attack on Socialism is due to that, they being unable to distinguish one from the other. All the best, David Cloudy England - probably more thunderstorms in a bit
