Now in York Museum. 
In 1887, the Society acquired, through 
the kindness of James Fowler, M.D., 
some interesting specimens of ancient 
glass, which had previously been 
in the collection of Mr. Ward and 
Dr. Merryweather, Dean of Hereford. 
Other glass has been acquired, 
amongst which are two panels from 
the upper part of the east window of 
St. Crux, each depict a doctor of 
the church seated at a desk (fig. 77). 
From the same church is a figure of 
St. Mary of Egypt (fig. 78) and a head 
of the Saviour (fig. 79). The glass 
is hung in the windows of the upper 
room in the Hospitium and in the 
Ethnological Room in the Museum. 
There is no need to give further 
particulars, as there is a detailed 
catalogue of the ancient glass given in 
the Museum Handbook, pp. 175-180. 
There are a number of fragments 
kept in the Hospitium drawers, these
