years) destroyed. The position is, however, clearly defined by the singular presence of two adjoining gates to the same field, one of which leads to the Pontefract portion and the other to the half acre which pays rates to Carleton. The termination of this Carleton portion was in the Middle Ages fixed by the Carleton Cross, and it is now ascertained by the position of "Rest and be Thankful.”

There were, it may be interesting to know, two other such boundary crosses in different parts of the borders of Pontefract, and, as I have said, in somewhat similar positions to that to which I have assigned the Carleton Cross. All three may be attributed to the 12th century, but of only one of them are there any remains. This is the bed of a shaft which has been called Stump Cross for centuries, probably since its demolition; but its original name, as recorded in the Pontefract Chartulary, was Ralph's Cross, and it was the boundary between Ferrybridge and Pontefract, on the road to Ferrybridge. A pretended engraving of three sides of the shaft of this Cross is given in Bishop Gough's Camden (III. 32, plate ii., 1789), which is reproduced in Fox's History of Pontefract, with an inaccurate reference. But the Bishop does not state his authority.

The third such cross was on the lower Darrington Road, that from the Old Church neighbourhood, which was a part of the old turnpike road from Wentbridge to Ferrybridge. It was the boundary between the last-named place and that outlying portion of Pontefract which is called the Greave Field. All, it will be observed, were upon the high roads to Carleton, to Ferrybridge, and to Darrington respectively.

THE LATE REV. DANIEL HENRY HAIGH.

MR. G. D. LUMB, writing to Notes and Queries (8th S., vii. 102), points out what appears to be a mistake in my obituary notice of Father Haigh in the Yorks. Arch. Journal, vol. vi. p. 53. "The notice states that before joining the Roman Church on Jan. 1st, 1847, Mr. Haigh had in great part built a new

church, dedicated to All Saints, in York Road, Leeds." 1 do not now remember what was my authority for this statement, whether or not The Tablet for May 24th, 1879, from which I gathered some particulars. But it would seem from The Leeds Intelligencer of November 2nd, 1850, that the foundation-stone was laid October 28th, 1846, the site having been purchased from a portion of an offertory at the consecration of St. Saviour's, and that Mr. Haigh had offered to build a church at a cost of £15,000. Mr. Haigh's secession, two months afterwards, involved the withdrawal of this offer; he spent the £15,000 on a handsome place of worship for Roman Catholics, at Erdington, near Birmingham; and the church at Leeds having been endowed by the Ecclesiastical Commissioners, was paid for by funds raised by the Rev. W. Randall, the first incumbent, and a committee of twelve gentlemen in the town.
