The church historian, Strype, conjectures that this sermon was the cause of the law passed in the fifth year of Elizabeth's reign, by which witchcraft was again made a felony, as it had been in the reign of Henry VIII. Whatever weight we may attach to Strype's suggestion, we have every right to believe that Jewel introduced foreign opinion on witchcraft.

Soc. Trans., ii , 225 ff. "Sir W.. A.. and I with divers other justices, being met together at Sondon church" . Strype, Annals of the Reformation, iii, Pt. ii, 214. This meeting here may have been in the churchyard. See in the Antiquary, xxxii , 147-8, the inquest held at St.

In Southampton Street Colley Cibber, the dramatist and actor, was born. Silver Street, which is connected with Southampton Street by a covered entry, is described by Strype as "indifferent well built and inhabited" a character it apparently keeps up to this day.

It carried on board nineteen thousand two hundred and ninety-five soldiers, eight thousand four hundred and fifty-six mariners, two thousand and eighty-eight galley slaves, and two thousand six hundred and thirty great pieces of brass ordnance. * Camden, p. 545. Strype, vol. iii. Append. p. 221. * Monson, p. 1.

Strype was the first unquestioning copyist of Foxe; Burnet was the second; and Sir Reginald Hennell is the most recent.* * In his volume "The History of the King's Bodyguard of the Yeomen of the Guard."

After her grief was able to find vent, it burst out in loud wailings and lamentations; she put herself in deep mourning for this deplorable event; and she was seen perpetually bathed in tears, and surrounded only by her maids and women. * Camden, p. 586. Strype, vol. iii. Append. p. 146. Jebb. vol. ii p. 608

An association was also set on foot by the earl of Leicester and other courtiers; and as Elizabeth was beloved by the whole nation, except the more zealous Catholics, men of all ranks willingly flocked to the subscription of it. * Camden, p. 499. Strype, vol. lii. p. 246. * State Trials, vol i. p. 122, 123.

When first made it was called Stiddolph Street, after Sir Richard Stiddolph, and the later name was taken from that of Sir Frances Compton. Strype says, "All this part was very meanly built ... and greatly inhabited by French, and of the poorer sort," a character it retains to this day. Monmouth Street was notorious for its old-clothes shops, and is the subject of one of the "Sketches by Boz."

This is in light stone, in the Perpendicular style, and has two western towers. It was built at the time of the separation of the district, about 1832. In Hatton Wall an old yard bore the name of Hat in Tun, which was interesting as showing the derivation of the word. Strype mentions in this street a very old inn, called the Bull Inn. In Hatton Yard Mr.

By 1 Eliz. c. 2, bishops could at pleasure associate themselves to justices of oyer and terminer or of assize. Cf. Strype, Whitgift, 329. Presentments on this score are frequent.
