"In honor of God and his blessed Mother Mary, remember the soule of John Lane (Wapentake Custos,^[1] Lanarius,^[2]) (with a Pater Noster and Ave Mary (Smirke, E.)) and the soule of Thomasine his wife, to have in memory all other their children and friends of your own charity which were founders of this chapple, and here lie in sepulture, the year of our Lord one thousand five hundred and six and twenty.
