There is also remaining the ‘Merchant’s Mark,’ of which we 
gave an engraving (p. 39), and which does not look unlike the 
outline of a cross bow, which formed part of the armorial bearings 
of the Horton family. One piece of brass which is said to have 
contained a figure of our Blessed Lord on the cross, together with 
another figure traditionally deemed to have been that of St. Peter, 
—(from the circumstance of ‘a cock’ having been engraved close to 
it,)—measuring about 4 inches by 6, was wrenched off and taken 
away, shortly after the stone was placed in its present position. 
At each of the four corners of the slab there would seem to have 
been small inlaid pieces of brass; two of them are at present con- 
cealed from view by the pewing,—another has been removed,—the 
fourth has the inscription ‘Lavy Helpe.” 
The second Brass is interesting as rather a late example of this 
'T have already spoken of the difficulties of reconciling the various statements 
concerning the Founder and Chantry Priest of this Chantry. My remarks in 
the note (p. 39), will be better understood from the annexed copy of the principal 
portions of the ‘Horton Pedigree’ from the Visitation of 1623 (Harl. MS. No. 
1443. fol. 189). The initials ‘T.H.’ over the Tower door at Westwood Church, 
and till a few years ago on a part of the panelled roof in the North Aisle, are 
possibly those of the ‘Thomas Horton, of Iford,’ who, as the pedigree shews, 
died 1549.
