JOHN OSBERN.

[Footnote 241.1: [From Fenn, iii. 308.] At the date of this

letter Lord Molyns had probably been acquitted, but the action

against his men was still pending. The year must therefore be

1451. The date ‘Thursday next after St. Austin’ is understood by

Fenn to be after the Feast of St. Austin, or Augustine, Bishop

of Hippo, which was celebrated on the 28th of August; but the

dates of the preceding letters make it more probable that the

writer means St. Augustine, the apostle of England, whose day

was the 26th of May.]
