In the earliest and mustiest volume of the Havenpool marriage registers (said the thin-faced gentleman) this entry may still be read by any one curious enough to decipher the crabbed handwriting of the date. I took a copy of it when I was last there; and it runs thus he had opened his pocket-book, and now read aloud the extract; afterwards handing round the book to us, wherein we saw transcribed the following: Mastr John Horseleigh, Knyght, of the p¿ysshe of Clyffton was maryd to Edith the wyffe late off John Stocker, m¿chawnte of Havenpool the xiiij daje of December be p¿vylegge gevyn by our sup¿me hedd of the chyrche of Ingelonde Kynge Henry the viii th 1539.
