HISTORICUS.

_Henry, third Earl of Northumberland._--The above nobleman fell on the

battle field of Towton (Yorkshire), 29th March, 1461, and was interred in

the church of St. Denys, or Dionisius, in York, where his tomb, denuded of

its brass, is still pointed out. Pray does an account exist, in any of our

old historians, as to the removal of the body of the above nobleman from

that dread field of slaughter to his mansion in Walmgate in the above city,

and of his interment, which doubtless was a strictly private one? Again,

does any record exist of the latter event in any book of early registers

belonging to the above church? Doubtless many readers of "N. & Q." will be

able to answer these three Queries.
