J. PASTON.

[Footnote 28-1: [From Fenn, ii. 280.] Sir John Paston died in

London on the 15th November 1479, as Fenn informs us. I presume he

had some authority for the precise date, which I have not seen.

The inquisition _post mortem_ is not now to be found; but the writ

to the Escheator still exists, and is dated 30 Nov., 19 Edw. IV.

This letter refers not only to the burial of Sir John Paston, but

also to the death of his grandmother Agnes. The year was one of

great mortality.]

[Footnote 28-2: Agnes, widow of William Paston the Judge.]

[Footnote 28-3: William, Lord Hastings.]

[Footnote 28-4: John Morton, afterwards Archbishop of Canterbury,

and Cardinal, etc.]
