Extract
I have the honour to transmit to you a copy of the Certificate of William Paulet, Marquis of Winchester, and Lord High Treasurer of England, and of Robert Dudley, Earl of Leycester, in the eleventh year of the reign of Queen Elizabeth; upon the contest between the Officers of Arms and the Dean and Prebendaries of the collegiate Church of Westminster, each party claiming the Hearse of the Lady Catherine Knowles, deceased, lately set up therein, and all such as should thereafter be erected in the collegiate Church aforesaid: Which contest being by her Majesty's most Honourable Privy Council referred to those two Noblemen, and they having heard the allegations of both parties, found, that the said Dean and Prebendaries had no manner of right to any Hearses or their Furniture; but that the same did belong to the Officers of Arms, as their fees; and do accordingly certify the Earl Marshal thereof. It is dated the sixth day of April, A. D. 1569.
