LIVY’S HISTORY OF ROME
MISSING VOLUMES FOUND. A NOTABLE DISCOVERY. Press Association—By Telegraph—Copyright. LONDON, August 21. Dr Mario Di Martinfusoo confirms the report from Naples that he has come into the possesion of Livy’s complete “History of Rome,’’ of which up to the present only 35 books out of 142 are extant, except in an epitomised form. The professor states that when the work is ready for access to scholars he will say where he found the important portions, which have been missing for 1400 years.— A. and N.Z. Cable.
