The Mayor of this City was this year chosen by the Voyces of four and twenty Free-men and Citizens hereof upon their Oaths. Rot. 1.

Great contention arose between the Dean and Chapter of this Churth, and the Warden and Fryers Preachers (commonly called the Black Fryers) touching the Burial of Sir Henry Rawley Knight, whose Corps the Dean and Chapter required to be presented at St. Peter's Church before it should be in∣terred, which the said Fryers refusing to do, yet the Dean and Chapter caused it there to be brought, where the same being presented, 'twas sent back again to the Fryer's house, which they would not receive therein but made fast their Gate, by means whereof the said Corps lay so long unburied 'till it stank, and at last the Canons were enforced to bury it in St. Peter's Church.
