Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Gleanings From the Municipal and Cathedral Records: Relative to the History of the City of Exeter In the choir of the south aisle of the Cathedral Church of Exeter, in recesses in the wall, are the recumbent effigies of two knights, cross-legged and armed cap-a-pie, their feet resting on lions. The one lying farthest eastward was doubtless erected by the second Countess of Devon to the memory of her father, Humphrey de Bohun, Earl of Hereford and Essex, and the Cathedral being the burying place of the Courtenays, its presence here is intelligible. With this monument we have no particular concern, although it has an interesting history of its own. The other I propose to identify as being connected with an old story, the main features of which are still preserved to us, notwithstanding the great lapse of time. Britton in his 'Cathedral Antiquities' says that this effigy commemorates a knight of the Chichester family, called Sir Arthur, the Bishop's brother. Mr. King in his hand-book to the Cathedral, assigns it to a knight of the Chichester family. Jenkins writes that it was, according to tradition, erected to the memory of Ralegh de Ralegh; and Meyrick remarks, with an authority which cannot be questioned, that the effigy is of the time of Edward the First, and, further, that the flattened coiffe is said to have borne on the shield the arms of Ralegh, viz: - Gules a bend vaire, between six crosslets, or. Before all trace was obliterated these arms were seen and noted, and because they are borne by the Chichesters it was thought that the buried knight must have belonged to that family.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The fascinating story of the so-called "Prayer Book Rebellion" of 1549 which saw the people of Devon and Cornwall rise up against the Crown The Western Rising of 1549 was the most catastrophic event to occur in Devon and Cornwall between the Black Death and the Civil War. Beginning as an argument between two men and their vicar, the rebellion led to a siege of Exeter, savage battles with Crown forces, and the deaths of 4,000 local men and women. It represents the most determined attempt by ordinary English people to halt the religious reformation of the Tudor period. Mark Stoyle tells the story of the so-called "Prayer Book Rebellion" in full. Correcting the accepted narrative in a number of places, Stoyle shows that the government in London saw the rebels as a real threat. He demonstrates the importance of regional identity and emphasizes that religion was at the heart of the uprising. This definitive account brings to life the stories of the thousands of men and women who acted to defend their faith almost five hundred years ago.
