Obiit 1532. aetatis vero suae, Au. 40.
Heere lye the bodies of Henry Beecher,
Alderman, and late Sheriffe of London;
and of Alice his first wife, one of the
daughters to Thomas Heron of Edge∣comb,
in the County of Surrey, Esquire,
by who he had 10. children. After whose
decease he married with Iane, the widdow
of one Oliver Loveband, of London,
Gent. with whom he lived three yeeres, and
dyed the 15. day of Ianuary, Anno Dom.
1570.
Here lyeth the body of Iohn Tryon, who
departed this life at Paris in France,
the 15. of August, and was here interred
the 14. day of September, An. Dom.
1612.
Having seene and observed the said
Parish Church of S. Christopher,* 1.1 with
all the Grave-stones and Monuments
therein: and finding a faire Tombe of
Touch, wherein lyeth the body of Ro∣bert
Thorne, Merchant-Taylor, and a
Batchelor buried, having given by his
Testament in charity, 4445. pounds,
and to pious uses. Then looking for
some such memory, as might adorne
and beautifie the name of another fa∣mous
Batchelor, Mr. Iohn Kendrick; and
finding none, but onely his Hatchments
and Banners, yet he being buried so long
since; I thought it fit to let his owne
last Will and Testament speake his due
and deserved praises, according, and as
(among other) it came to my hands.
Notes

Robert Thorne, a bounti∣full Bat∣chelour, buried in the same Parish of S. Christo∣pher.
