And still further, 
“Et q’d p’de’us Joh’es Mason’, & Joh’es Plympton’,

These extracts furnish us, in John Mason or John 
Plympton, with the name of at least one additional Abbot 
to the list given in Dugdale. Dugdale, who, however, 
possessed sources of information which are now lost, gives 
none between Abbot Robert de Clire 1321, and William 
Seylake 1419, except “ John, 1407,” and “ Leonard, 1416.” 
The last mentioned is no doubt the Leonardus of the 
present Charter, which refers to the year 1416 : for the 
“John” which precedes him we can now insert John 
Plympton and John Mason. 
The document next in order is one of peculiar interest 
in the history of the Abbey. It appears that a chapel 
anciently erected to the honour of the Blessed Virgin had 
been wholly destroyed by a flood : and the Charter now 
to be offered is a license to hold a weekly market and two 
fairs yearly towards the liquidation of the expenses con- 
nected with its re-erection. I presume it was to this 
building that the commission to consecrate teferred, the
