conclavist to accept from his government the charge of proposing a "veto," or to exhibit it to the conclave under any form. BIBLIOGRAPHY.--The best and most complete work is Lucius Lector, _Le Conclave, origine, histoire, organisation, legislation ancienne et moderne_ (Paris, 1894). See also Ferraris, _Prompta Bibliotheca, s. v. Papa_, art. i.; Moroni, _Dizionario di erudizione storico-ecclesiastica, s. v.

(A. Bo.*) CONCORD, a township of Middlesex county, Massachusetts, U.S.A., about 20 m. N.W. of Boston. Pop. (1900) 5652; (1910, U.S. census) 6421. Area 25 sq. m. It is traversed by the Boston & Maine railway. Where the Sudbury and Assabet unite to form the beautiful little Concord river, celebrated by Thoreau, is the village of Concord, straggling, placid and beautiful, full of associations with the opening of the War of Independence and with American literature. Of particular interest is the "Old Manse," built in 1765 for Rev. William Emerson, in which his grandson R. W. Emerson wrote _Nature_, and Hawthorne his _Mosses from an Old Manse_, containing a charming description of the building and its associations. At Concord there is a state reformatory, whose inmates, about 800 in number, are employed in manufacturing various articles, but otherwise the town has only minor business and industrial interests. The introduction of the "Concord" grape, first produced here by Ephraim Bull in 1853, is said to have marked the beginning of the profitable commercial cultivation of table grapes in the United States. Concord was settled and incorporated as a township in 1635, and was (with Dedham) the first settlement in Massachusetts back from the sea-coast.
