     * But.
       It is extremely probable that the inhabitants of Tarsus, born
       in that city, had the same rights and privileges as Roman
       citizens, in consequence of a grant or charter from Julius
       C(9173)ar, from whom it was called Juliopolis.  But if this were
       not the case, St. Paul's father, or some of his ancestors,
       might have been rewarded with the freedom of the city of Rome,
       for his fidelity and bravery in some military service, as
       Josephus says several of the Jews were; or his father might
       have obtained it by purchase, as in the instance of the chief
       captain.
