VI. Further Notes on the Runic Cross at Lancaster; by John Mitchell Kemble, Esq.

View through CrossRef
In Dr. Whitaker's Richmondshire, vol. ii. p. 229, there is a copy of a Runic inscription upon a stone cross of some beauty and very great antiquity. The inaccuracy of this copy was noted by me in my Memoir on the Anglo-Saxon Runes, published in the Archæologia, vol. XXVIII. page 347, as presenting an insuperable bar to any attempt at explaining the inscription.
