[Footnote 219.1: [From Fenn, i. 256.] Friar Brackley, who is here
mentioned as dead, is spoken of in John Paston’s deposition of
December 1465, without any indication that he was at that time
deceased (_see_ No. 606). We may presume, therefore, that he died
between that time and May 1466, in which month and year died John
Paston, to whom this letter is addressed.]
[Footnote 219.2: _Nowth unknow._ I believe this to be the true
reading of the original MS. Fenn prints it ‘nowthn know.’]
[Footnote 219.3: He was beheaded on Tower Hill in February 1462.]
