the iiorfch side of the nave and fclie third arch eastward from it is 

 the first arch on the north side of the choir. When the late Mr. 

 Fisher was doing some repairs he opened a tomb in that place, 

 i.e., behind the first row of choir stalls on the north, and saw a 

 chalice and paten therein. Koger de Mortival would doubtless 

 have been buried with these symbols, but I think it very likely 

 that they would not have been placed in the second grave of Roger 

 the drst. As Canon Wordsworth remarks in his Salisbury 

 Ceremonies and Processions, it is difficult to pronounce with any 

 confidence upon the burial-place of these namesake bishops. His 

 obit was on the 14th of March. 



Bishop Egbert Wivil (1330 — 1375) was buried in the middle 

 of the choir near the bishop's throne; in this statement all the 

 authorities agree. The magnificent brass which was placed over 

 his grave has been removed to the Morning Chapel. 



The next bishop, Ealph Erghum (1375 — 1388), was translated 

 to Wells, where he died the 10th of April, 1401, and was buried 

 iii that Cathedral on the south side of the eastern part of the nave. 



John Waltham (1388 — 1395) was "buried in Westminster 

 among the Kings (as in his epitaph is yet to bee read) many men 

 much envying him that honour. He died the yeere 1395 and 

 lieth just beside King Edward the first under a fiat marble, the 

 inscription whereof is (though partly defaced) not yet quite 

 perished '* (Godwin). His obit was celel)rated on the 17th of 

 September.

 was in the south-west transept, and the south aisle of the choir,

 celebration of his obit was on the oth of May.
