In the days of King Edward the Confessor there was in Arundel a church dedicated in honour of St. Nicholas, which at the time of the Great Survey received from the tithes of Arundel 24s. a year. The clerks of St. Nicholas also held six hides of land in Harting, and “so it was in the time of King Edward.”

page 70 note b By his will, dated 10th March, 1497–8 [P.C.C. 19 Horne], John Neele, master, bequeathed “Collegio Arundell quadriginta libras sub condicione sequenti quod fiant duo calices ad usum ejusdem Collegij ex predicta summa ad valorem viginti marcarum in memoriam nominis mei.” Possibly the two new chalices were those made in accordance with this bequest.

page 76 note a This use of copes by the choristers was probably a late one confined to rich churches. At York Minster in 1510, among a list of white copes, are a cope for a collet and nine copes for boys. The same church had also sets of four tunicles for tribulers and choristers in each of the four colours, white, blue, red, and green. (York Fabric Bolls, 228, 233, 234.)

Garraway Rice for this extract.—W. H. St. J. H.)
