By the Rev. C. S. Ruddle. 339 
consented to this appropriation, for the oratory had become corrupt ; 
and Trengoff was willing to consent to surrender Barton provided 
he received a pension, which as the Close Roll shows, was secured 
on the manor of Durrington.’ But the pensioner did not live long ; 
he died February 27th, 1445-6, so that the charge on Winchester 
College was very light. He seems to have remained on good terms 
with the college till his death, as he left its chapel a set of vestments 
of blue bawdekyn embroidered with a crucifix, the Virgin Mary, 
St. John, St. Mary Magdalene, and St. Stephen: the field with 
golden pheasants, swans with two necks, and red and white roses. 
' For the first seventy years of the 16th century.the lessees of 
the West-end manor under Winchester college were the Matons. 
Robert, who died 1509 ; Robert, who died 1549 ; John, who renewed 
the lease in 1565. But in 1570 it passed to Francis Culpepper for 
five years. The will of the first of these men is interesting; it is 
in the Prerogative Court of Canterbury (26 Benet), and was ex- 
tracted by the Rev. Ric. Grosvenor Bartlett :—
