President, David Pre scott Barrows, Ph.D. TUS GERMANIC US (A.D. 37-41), was born at Actium in the year A.D. 12, the was brought up among the soldiers at the camp, and thus became their great favorite, receiving from them the nickname of C., from the soldier's boots (caliguloe) he used to wear. He was adopted as his grandson by Tiberius, and on the death of that monarch in A.D. 37 it was found that the empire was left to C. and the true grandson of Tiberius.

His _ extortions, prodigality, and cruelty were unspeakable. Finally the citizens decided to rid themselves of the tyrant, and he was a a inated.
