[Footnote 6-1: [From Paston MSS., B.M.] Walter Paston, to whom
this letter refers, died in August 1479. This letter was probably
written in the beginning of the same year. The date certainly
cannot be 1478, if No. 926 has been assigned to the right year,
for it will be seen that the writer was then in London, and so
much occupied that he had little prospect of visiting Norfolk for
some time.]
[Footnote 6-2: James Goldwell was consecrated by Pope Sextus IV.
Bishop of Norwich in 1472. He resided much at his manor of Hoxne,
where he died in 1498.--F.]
[Footnote 6-3: These words are struck through with the pen.]
[Footnote 7-1: William de Pykenham became Chancellor of Norwich
and Archdeacon of Suffolk in 1471, and was also some time Rector
of Hadleigh in Suffolk, where he built the grand gate or tower
before the parsonage. He died in 1497.--F.]
