====Eusebius====
II 9,1-3 -- '' [1] "Acts 12:1-2 Now about that time" (it is clear that he means the time of Claudius) "Herod the King  stretched forth his hands to vex certain of the Church. And he killed James the brother of John with the sword" (Acts 12:1-2). [2] And concerning this James, Clement, in the seventh book of his Hypotyposes, relates a story which is worthy of mention; telling it as he received it from those who had lived before him. He says that the one who led James to the judgment-seat, when he saw him bearing his testimony, was moved, and confessed that he was himself also a Christian. [[3]] They were both therefore, he says, led away together; and on the way he begged James to forgive him. And he, after considering a little, said, "Peace be with you," and kissed him. And thus they were both beheaded at the same time. ''
