“A fourth fragment contains but one large figure, 
probably St. Mary Magdalene, and two small ones, 
one a bishop, both carrying labels. 
“ A fifth sculpture contains a large St. Christopher, 
and two smaller niches, of which one has a ship— 
of yellow, with a white sail charged with crosses in 
vermilion, the crew yellow, and sea blue,” in which 
are represented small fishes ; “ and the other a most 
singular representation of a mermaid, with glass 
and comb! 
“ Another large piece contains two large and four 
smaller figures, which cannot be assigned to parti- 
cular saints; and a seventh fragment displays St. 
Michael, with the dragon and scales, and in two 
smaller niches a shrouded figure (such as is occa- 
sionally seen in brasses) and a naked figure walking 
over a toothed instrument. 
“An eighth fragment, containing two large and 
four small figures, is much mutilated. One large 
figure holds the hull of a ship; the other, a male, 
appears to have a long club. Of the smaller ones, 
two seem to be deacons in dalmatics, and one holds 
a fringed label. 
“The ninth piece has alarge figure complete, and 
the half of a second, divided by two small figures in 
copes.

mains. The character of the foliation of the stone- 
work would point to about the year 1400, early in 
the third-pointed period. This date is confirmed
