Cadnam. 397 



Cricklade, the younger, married Katharine, the eldest daughter of 

 Sir Edmund Hungerford, of Down Ampney.^ By a series of three 

 deeds,^ 16 — 17 May, 1461, the manor and advowson of Langridge 

 were settled on him and Katharine his wife in tail, with remainder 

 to his right heirs. It may be conjectured that, had he consented 

 to take in every instance a limited estate from his uncle, upon the 

 refeoffment, — such an estate as it must be presumed he accepted 

 in the case of Langridge, and possibly of other lands, — the dispute, 

 subject to a general discharge to his uncle, would have been at an 

 end. Beyond a doubt every acre of his inheritance was subject to 

 some old entail ; a refeoffment from his uncle, to himself in tail 

 with remainder to his right heirs, would have satisfied the case. 

 This, in the instance of the manors of Studley and Cadnam, he 

 apparently declined, and his uncle as stubbornly refused to re- 

 enfeoff him on any other terms. Accordingly, upon his coming of 

 age, it may be presumed, in or about 1464, the proceedings re- 

 commenced. His fresh bill is addressed to George Nevill, who was 

 chancellor, as bishop of Ely, from 25th July, 1460, to 15th March, 

 1464-5, prior to his translation to York.
