WREXHAM TO MOLD. I49r 



He is reprefented in an upright attitude, but, un- 

 fortunately, the figure has loft its noie from an 

 accidental (lone thrown throu-h the window. — The 



o 



epitaph on Dr. \¥illiam Wynne of Tower, fome 

 time fellow of All Souls college Oxford, who died 

 in the year 1776, deferves a place here, not from 

 its eccentricity, fo much as its recording an example 

 of an exprefs direction againft interment within the 

 walls of the church, which ought to be generally 

 followed': 



In conformity to ancient iifage ; 



from a proper regard to decency, 



and a concern for the health of his 



fellow-creatures, he was moved to give 



particular directions for being buried 



in the adjoining church-yard, 



and not in the church. 



And as he fcorned flattering of others 



while living, he has taken care to pre%'ent 



being flattered himfelf when dead, 



by caufing this fmall memorial to be 



fet up in his life time. 



God be inertlful to me a finner. 



There is alfo in this church an ancient cenotaph 

 to the memory of Robert Warton, or Parfew, who 

 was abbot of Bermondfey, but in 1536 was tranf- 

 lated to the fee of St. Afaph. He was interred at 

 Hereford, but haA^ing been a confiderable benefactor 

 to the church of Mold, this cenotaph was erecled as 

 a grateful memorial of his beneficence.
