Originally the chapel of the Abbey of St, Claire, which was founded in 1293 by Blanche d'Artois, Queen of Navarre, the church was known by ils present uame as far back as 1563, some twenty-five years after Lady Elizabeth Savage had sar. rendered the abbey to Henry VIIL Among its plate are a pair of ‘fagons, presented by ‘‘Homest Will Legge, the cavalier who was given the abbe buildings for his loyalty and ly baried in the chareh.

John preserved this pet with the greatest care. True, it stung him onoe, but thea it had every excure for doing so. Sir John was examising it on a railway journey, and the door being opened by u ticket collector he unceremonionsly stuffed it into a bottle, and the ontragel Spaniard, process, gave him a gentle reminder as to the proper way to treat a guest.
