Upon the 30. day of May suffered together in Smithfield John Cardmaker otherwise called Taylor, prebendary of the Church of Wells, and John Warn upholster, of the parish of Saint John in Walbrooke. Cardmaker was an observant Friar, afterward a married minister, and in King Edwards days appointed to be reader in Pauls. Where the Papists were so much grieved at him for his doctrine, that in his reading they cut & mangled his gown with their knives. He being apprehended in the beginning of Queen Mary's days, with Master Barlow bishop of Bath was brought to London and laid in the Fleeter King Edwards laws yet being in force till the Parliament ended, which delivered the Bishops authority, and power over the professors of the Gospel. At which time these two were both brought before Winchester & other commissioners, who answered in such sort unto them, that Winchester with his fellow commissioners allowed them for catholic, glad to have a forged example of a shrinking brother: which also they objected against others, commending the soberness of them twain. This notwithstanding, Barnard was led again to the Fleet. From whence he afterward being delivered, did by exile constantly bear witness to the truth. ⟨p. 152⟩Cardmaker was conveyed to the Counter in Bread Street, the Bishop of London procuring it to be published, that he should shortly be delivered, after that he had subscribed to Transubstantiation, and certain other Articles.
