74 BURTON ABBEY DISSOLUTION INVENTORIES. 
states that, ‘‘Such Ornaments of the Church, and of the 
Ministers thereof, at all times of their Ministration, shall be 
retained, and be in use, as were in this Church of England, 
by the Authority of Parliament, in the second year of the 
reign of King Edward the Sixth.” We see what was in 
use in Burton in the 6th year of Edward VI, four years 
after that date, so they must have been there in the 2nd 
year. So we leave Burton Church, only saying that, no 
doubt, it was stripped of everything that could be turned 
into money; there is no entry of even leaving a chalice, 
paten, or a surplice, as we find in so many cases the 
Commissioners did.
