A fact from Church of St Candida and Holy Cross appeared on Wikipedia's Main Page in the Did you know column on 25 September 2012 (check views). The text of the entry was as follows:
The article currently states that the inscription on the lead casket reads "HIC-REQESCT-RELIQE-SCE-WITE", whereas I have a source (Dorset Villages by Roland Gant) that states it reads "Hic Reqiesct Reliqie Sce Wite", which is very slightly different. Any comments? PaleCloudedWhite (talk) 20:55, 11 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]
It varied in each of the sources:
"Hic Reqesct Reliqe Sce Wite" (Bickley p.98)
"Hic Requiesct Reliqu Sce Wite" (Crook p.244)
"Hic Reqesct Reliqe Sce Wite" (Pentin p.60)
"Hic Requesct Rliqe Sce Wite" (Treves p.281)
So I found this flickr image which shows what is presumably the original or a copy of the inscription on top of the shrine and used the spelling given on that. Barret (talk) 21:26, 11 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]
That seems the sensible course to take, although discerning the second word in that Flickr image involves a bit of screen-staring! I guess that the image shows a copy, rather than the original - it doesn't look like lead (not that the original has to be, but I had read my source as meaning that the lead itself was inscribed), also security-wise it would seem a bit careless to leave the original unprotected like that, even in a quiet corner of west Dorset.
