Hunwicke's blog:<br /><br />"1569 Rising said...<br /><br /> Father,<br /><br /> St Andrew's Day will always linger in the affections of denizens of the County Palatine Of Durham.<br /><br /> It was on November 30, 1569, that Frs Peirson and Plumtree, clutching the Papal Document absolving the Bishopric from Schism and Heresy, celebrated High Mass in the Cathedral of Durham, the highlight of the Rising of the North so cruelly put down a month later.<br /><br /> The crowd was so great that the Cathedral was filled to bursting, spilling out on to Palace Green. Thousands knelt down to receive absolution, including the Cathedral Chapter and assorted clergy from the city and country.<br /><br /> The same clergy, after the defeat of the rebels, hurried to seek forgiveness from the Queen, and most were rewarded with preferment in the state church they had so recently disowned."<br /><br />Not to forget 30 November 1554, of course.William Tighehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16634494183165592707noreply@blogger.com
