we find them in the Model. This Reading agrees 
very well, with what Mr. Newcome mentions in his 
firft Letter ; that he heard fome Pcrfons at Rumfey 
fay, the Church had been dedicated to St. 'John . It 
feems therefore not improbable, that the Pi&ures 
both of Chrifl and St. ‘John were formerly painted 
cither in that Window, or near it. And this Opi- 
nion I am the more confirmed in from Mr. New- 
comes Account in the fame Letter, that there are 
three Crucifixes yet remaining about the Church, 
notwithftanding the many Windows now ftopt up, 
and other ureat Alterations made in it at different 
times. One of thefe is painted on a Window behind 
the Communion Table, and reprefents Chrijl bear- 
ing his Crofs. The fecond is on the South Wall, 
the Figure of which is five Feet three Inches high, 
and reprefents him in the ufual Manner upon the 
Crofs, with his Arms extended, and a Hand above point- 
ing downward. It Hands near the Ground, and ap- 
pears very antient. The third, which is very rudely 
drawn', is on the Outfide of the Church, near the 
Top of the Weft Front, in the fame Pofture as the 
fecond, accompanied with the fix following Figures. 
On the Top of the Crofs are two Angels. On the 
Sides are two other Figures in long Garments, 
defigned probably to reprefent his Mother, and St. 
John, to whofe Care he committed her, as we find 
recorded in his Gofpel (a). Below are two Soldiers, 
one on the left Side holding up a Reed with a Sponge 
at the Top ; and the other on the right piercing
