- ...App. Claudius sonne of Appius.
- ...T. Quintius.
DIonysius would have L. Aemylius Mamer∣cus to be Consull the third time this yeer, with Vopiscus Iulius: but Livie, L. Aemilius and Opiter Virginius. Howbeit, he saith that in some Annales hee found Vopiscus Iulius, in steed of Virginius. And them, Diodorus, the Greeke records, and the avouchers of the Consuls ta∣bles within the Capitoll, have followed. In the fragments wherof is read Iulius, which is a sur∣name of the Iulij. And therefore in the Sicilian registers, it is thus written, Aemilius and Iulius: but in those of Cuspinian, Mamercus and Vopis∣cus. Cassiodorus hath followed Livie. Moreo∣ver, Appius is a peculiar name of the Claudij, which no citizen els of Rome used: because it was a strangers name.
