Bassano, writing about 1710, says:--"In the East end of the North He is a Tombe all of wood, ye side of tomb erected about 4 foot high, & upon it is the full proportion of a man in some sort of Priests orders, In Rich Canonicall Robes, supposed to be the Abbot of Derley, a dog at his feet, Colloured, and looking mournfully up at his master, upon the side of this tombe cut on the wood, are the effigies of 13 monkes in their habits, in praying postures, and under them, Cut on wood, lyeth a Man on his left side' wrapped up in his winding sheet, with a Cross Patee on his left brest." When the old Church was demolished in 1723-5, this monument was not actually destroyed, but separated into its component parts; the effigy and cadaver were consigned to the obscurity of the Town Vault, whence they have only recently been removed, sadly defaced and mutilated by rot and neglect. The tomb itself was destroyed, except part of the side containing the figures, which is now affixed to the Consistory Court in the north chancel aisle. When Mr. Rawlins visited the Church in 1831, this piece of carving hung beneath the East window. Tradition, he tells us, ascribed it to the apex of the arch over the south porch door of the old Church; but his own opinion was that it was the upper part of a door-case leading into a Confessional (!), and the thirteen figures he considered to be S. Paul and the twelve Apostles (!!) The effigy, which measures about 6 ft. by 2 ft., is vested in cassock, surplice, almuce, and processional cope--the costume of a Secular Canon. The head is supported by sitting figures of angels, now much broken. The figure of the collared hound has utterly vanished, and the lower part of the effigy is sadly decayed and injured. The c...

There are now 65,000  titles available  (that's an incredible 25 million pages) of material ranging from works by famous names such as  Dickens, Trollope and Hardy as well as many forgotten literary gems , all of which can now be printed on demand and purchased right here on Amazon. Further information on The British Library and its digitisation programme can be found on The British Library website.

This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself. Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with access to the best possible historical reprints. We appreciate your understanding of these occasional imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that intended by the original publisher.
