be a fadt) I cannot help concluding, that the monu- 
ment mud have been eredted in fome or other of the 
wars of the houfes of York and Lancader, or later. 
But this is only conjecture, and mud be fubmitted to 
the judgment of the more curious,, or thofe who may 
have heard of, or feen, fome fimilar ones; for my 
part, in my reading, I have not met with any thing 
at all like it. The feveral coffins were about two 
feet high each; the two complete ones about 7.6 
long each ; and the others had the flat (tone nearly 
the fame length ; but the covering extended only as 
far as the bread:. 
Thefe are all the particulars I am now able to give 
you, of this remarkable monument. It is now to- 
tally deflroyed. If any of your friends, to whom 
you may, poffibly, communicate this, could afcertain, 
in any meafure, the date of it, fliould be extremely 
glad to hear it from you, as, I think, it would greatly 
affid me in tracing fome other remarkable curiofities 
in our neighbourhood, by way of preparation for a 
natural hidory of this part of our county. 
I am, 
Dear Sir, 
Your fincere friend, 
and humble fervant, 
Samuel Evatt.
