Anno 1511. Under William Warrham Archb. of Canterbury, certain martyrs that were omitted which suffered at that time with him, because they are not to be forgotten, are to be referred to that year. They suffered for denying the Sacrament of the Altar, &c for auricular confession, the extreme unction, images, pilgrimages, prayer to saints, holy bread, holy water, &c. They deny all that they had uttered any thing against those popish points: yet witnesses, who had partly abjured before, and others against nature, as the husband against the wife, and children against the mother: being brought forth, they were condemned, and put to death. Their names were: William Carder of Tenderden, Weaver, Agnes Grebill of the same town of threescore year old, Robert Lawson of Halden, of the age 60. John Browne of Ashford, Edward Walker of Maidstone, Cutler: who all notwithstanding they promised to submit themselves, yet were they condemned. The cause why the good woman so stood (as she did) to the denial of those articles, objected against her was, for that she never thought that her husband and her own children, (who only were privy of her religion) would have testified against her: which when she perceived, she repented the time that ever she bare those children of her body. So, notwithstanding that she offered conformity, she was condemned and put to death. Her husbands name was John Grebill: her sons, Christopher and John. Besides these, which were put to death, a number under Warren were forced to abjure the trueth against the real presence, confession, sacrament of matrimony, unction, pilgrimages, Images, Saints, holy water, holy bread, &c.
