From hence keeping the London Road I came to Chelmsford, mentioned before, and Ingerstone, five miles west, which I mention again, because in the parish church of this town are to be seen the ancient monuments of the noble family of Petre, whose seat and large estate lie in the neighbourhood, and whose whole family, by a constant series of beneficent actions to the poor, and bounty upon all charitable occasions, have gained an affectionate esteem through all that part of the country such as no prejudice of religion could wear out, or perhaps ever may; and I must confess, I think, need not, for good and great actions command our respect, let the opinions of the persons be otherwise what they will.
And a stones cast fro that chapelle, is another chapelle, where oure Lord was jugged: for that tyme, was there Cayphases hows.

I understand that you have already considered the matter, so that there is no more to be said." He stepped down from the dais and passed round to the further side of the table. One of the secretaries pushed an ink-horn and a couple of quills across to him. "My Lord Prior," said Dr. Petre, with a slight bow.
The former, including Lords Stafford, Powis, Petre, Bellasis, and Arundel of Wardour, were committed to the Tower, the latter to Newgate prison. At the end of his examination he was several times asked if he knew more of the plot, or of those concerned with it, to which he emphatically replied he did not.
"Don't believe him, Mr. Glenn I'll be smashed if its any thing but my tooth," said Sneak. "Oh I'm dying!" continued Joe, pressing his hand against his head, while the pain and loss of blood actually produced a faintness, and his voice became very weak. "Are you really much hurt?" continued Glenn, stooping down, and feeling his pulse. "It's all over!" muttered Joe. "I'm going fast. Sancte Petre!

PICKLED PORK. The hams and shoulders being cut off, take for pickling the quantities proportioned to the middlings of a pretty large hog.
