Excerpt from The History of Italy, From the Abdication of Napoleon I, Vol. 2: With Introductory References to That Earlier Times In subsequent portions or the same work published at a much later date he refers to the statement of Pistolesi but adheres to his own. - Idem, vol. liii. p. 137. Tit. Pio Nono. Vol. lxii. p. 292, Tit. Scommunica. Note to page 484. In Gibbon's "Antiquities of the House of Brunswick" will be found a very clear and full statement of the connection both of Modena and Ferrara with the House of Este. Modena was a free city, like the other towns of Tuscany; after the death of the Countess of Matilda, like the others, it submitted in time to the supremacy of a lord. It fell under the dominion of the Dukes of Ferrara, was conquered from them by Julius II., who asserted the title of the Church to it, as part of the exarchate of Ravenna and of the bequest of Matilda. It was not long severed from the dominions of the House of Este, being ceded to the Duke of Ferrara by Leo X. at the request of Francis I. In the same treatise the reader will find a detailed account of the annexation of Ferrara to the Holy See. Some doubt is thrown by Gibbon on the illegitimacy of the Duke Cæsar, from whom the Pope reclaimed the possession. There seems, however, no reason to suppose that the claim of the Pope was not founded in right. Cæsar was unquestionably illegitimate at his birth, and there is no proof to sustain the conjecture that he was legitimised by a subsequent marriage of his parents - the only plausible ground upon which the charges of an unjust annexation can be maintained.
