Since the earliest sheets have been printed off, the Author has been favored with an extract from some deed, once in the parish chest, but now lost, written in the same haud as the one he at first had access to, but with the correction of a date; so that the ommission of the following sentence (line 5, page 8,) becomes necessary ;—“ and may, with probability, be supposed to have existed prior to the grant of the land to the church of Sherborne."

By the same authority it appears that the old books were left to the church in 1638; the large volume of the Book of Martyrs, full of plates, which has been destroyed by the boys, stood on a curious stand now in the porch. Such bequests were not unfrequent during that period. Small sums of money were sometimes left, that the Book of Martyrs might be read at certain times to the people; and, no doubt, proved, as was the intention, a good antidote to popery.
