Thus veering with the times, he was enabled still to retain the high post he before had filled, and was, to all appearance at least, as high iu Stephen's esteem as he had been in Henry's. His nephew Alexander, and his natural son Roger, both becamef chancellors, he himself being treasurer.J It is recorded by Malmcsbury§ that the king even swore " by the nativity of God, to give him half his kingdom, if he should ask it; and that his minister should sooner be tired of asking, than he of giving." But such is the equity of Providence, treacherous tools are usually treacherously treated; and artful men become the victims of a duplicity similar to their own. Stephen, though raised to the throne by Roger's powerful assistance, soon practised upon him the same ingratitude that he had previously exhibited to his former benefactor. Nor could the monarch implicitly repose confidence in a dishonest, however devoted, minister. The sun shine of royal favor was now turned into darkness: and he who had sacrificed upon the altar of ambition the interests of his patron's family, was.destined to be plundered by the very usurper whose cause he had espoused, and on whose head he had been mainly instrumental in placing the crown.

Excerpt: ... work, vol. 58, for the year 1788, pt. 2. p. 952, writes as follows: "The article on Clerkenwell, p. 853, reminds me of a paragraph I some time since transcribed from a newspaper of March 26, 1716, which you may perhaps think worth preserving. "Last Tuesday night, March 22, 1714-15, the body of that great and good man, the late Dr. Burnet, Bp. of Sarum, was interred near the communion-table, in Clerkenwell church, to which he was carried in a hearse, attended by mourning coaches, from his house, in St. John's Square. The pall was supported by his worthy successor in the see of Sarum; the Bp. of Oxford, and by the Bps. of Ely, Norwich, Litchfield & Coventry, and Bangor. As the corpse was conveying to the church, the rabble, that shews no distinction to men of great parts and learning, (when once they conceive an ill opinion of them) flung dirt and stones at the hearse, and broke the glasses of the coach that immediately followed it." Notices of the Bp's family will be found in Gent. Mag. 1802, Pt. 2,598. His epitaph in vol. 87, 1817, pt. 1, 113, together with a plate of the monument. Consult also Nichols's Liter. Anec.

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.

biographer chaplain Anglican priest
The son of Stephen Cassan, a barrister, and his wife Sarah, daughter of Charles Mears, he was born in Calcutta, where his father was sheriff.
He was educated at Magdalen Hall, Oxford, took his Bachelor of Arts degree on 14 January 1815, received deacon"s orders on 26 March following, and was ordained priest the next year.
John Hyde was his godfather. While curate of Frome, Somerset, in 1820, Cassan made a runaway match with Fanny, daughter of the late Review William Ireland who had been vicar of that parish.
This marriage occasioned considerable scandal, and led to legal proceedings.
Moving from Frome, he held the curacy of Mere, Wiltshire, until 1831, when he was presented by Sir Colt Hoare to the living of Bruton with Wyke Champflower. He was also chaplain to the Earl of Caledon and to the Duke of Cambridge.
Cassan was elected a fellow of the Society of Antiquaries of London in 1829. After suffering from mental illness for two years, he died on 19 July 1841.
