Show When Romans Ruled Britain. There is a showcase In the Roman British section of the British museum that contains the discharge certificates given to soldiers in Britain at the time of the Romans. The bronze certificates are quaintly worded, and record the fact that the holders "discharged honorably hon-orably after 25 years of service," are granted Roman citizenship if not already al-ready held, "and the recognition of their marriage with those who re their wives, or In case of unmarried, any wives they may subsequently marry, mar-ry, provided they only have one each." |
