^j^HE Goddard brass, a plate of which is given in the present 

 IJIH^ I number of our Magazine, was recently discovered in the 

 Upham Aisle of Aldbourn Church in this county, on removing 

 some decayed pew floors. From a comparison of dates, as well as 

 from the style of the dress, and the pedigree of the Goddard 

 Family supplied in " Burke's Landed Gentry," it is, most likely, 

 a memorial of Richard Goddard of Upham, who married Elizabeth, 

 daughter of Thomas Walrond, Esq., of Aldbourn, and had by her 

 three sons and one daughter. There are "matrices" of other 

 smaller brasses, prohahly shields of arms, at the foot of the slab, 

 but as they are lost, no evidence can be obtained from arms in support 

 of the above opinion.
