Here’s a Lieutenant of a Royall Band/Interrd, whose Loyall Life gave him Command./He fought The Fight of Faith, hence is his Name/Inroll’d I’th’ Book of Life to lasting Fame./(Death fears no Colours, Drums, Gun, Pike, or Blade;/All here give Place unto the fatall Spade)./Yet Christ Our Captaine, for his constant Faith,/We hope hath crown’d his Soul set free from Death.

*Et p Aiabz Willi SMERSOLLE, Margaret Uxoris sue, et p. Aia Saunder GOLFINCH.
*Mr WEEVER mentions an Inscription at Chilham, so very like this (P.280) that I think verily, it is the same, but, by Him Misplaced; wch. might be the Case, as he visited both these Churches. it is this as he gives it. "Orate Willelmi SMERSOLL de Smersholl … et Uxor ejus, et pro Animâ Sander GOLDSMITH". There is no such Inscription in being at Chilham now; I searched particularly for it.

12. Mr WEEVER has preserv’d the Following Inscription, now gone. "Orate pro Animâ Willelmi TONGE, et Johaannis Filij ejus, qui Hanc Fenestram fieri fecerunt". He also informs us, that, in his Time there was "an Ancient faire Monument whereon the Portraiture of an Armed Knight, crosse Legged, was to be seen, and "only Hic Jacet of an Inscription; the rest gone". But, of this Monument, at this Day, Ipsae periere Ruinae. There was a Preceptory here.

13. This Church is but Small, and consists only of The Chancell and the Body. At The West End is a pretty handsome Tower in which hang 3 Bells, thus inscribed.
