Catholic Martyrs of Gloucestershire by Michael Bergin and Margaret and Patrick Gethen Catholic Martyrs of Gloucestershire by Michael Bergin and Margaret and Patrick Gethen St Peter's Church, Gloucester Acknowledgements In November 1987, to commemorate the beatification of five Gloucestershire Catholic martyrs, the Gloucestershire Catholic History Society published a booklet written by Patrick and Margaret Gethen. This recounted what is known of Blessed Richard Sargeant, John Sandys, Stephen Rowsham, William Lampley and Henry Webley. The booklet was republished in 2005. Journal No 53 of the Gloucestershire Catholic History Society, published in October 2010, reproduced the original 1987 booklet with the addition of articles by Michael Bergen on Blessed Thomas Alfield and the Venerable Thomas Webley. Thank you to Debbie Cottam who in 2013 re-typed the original text. 1 Statutes under which the martyrs were charged The Statute of Treasons of 1351 (Edward III Stat.5, Cap.2) The basic treason law of England. Compassing or attempting the death of the King, or his heirs, is high treason according to this law. Act to retain the Queen’s Majesty’s subject in due obedience (23 Eliz. I. Cap.1. 1581) This Act made it high treason to reconcile or be reconciled to the Catholic Church or to induce others to be so reconciled, (persuading to popery). Act against Jesuits, seminary priests and other such like disobedient persons (27 Eliz. I. Cap.2 1585) This act made it high treason for a Catholic priest ordained abroad to come into or remain in the realm after 24th June 1559. It made it felony for anyone to harbour or assist him. The sentence for a priest was that he should be hanged, drawn and quartered, for a layman that he should be hanged. Other charges were sometimes added. Two other Martyrs with local connections Blessed John Pibush was arrested in Moreton-in-Marsh. He was tried and imprisoned at Gloucester and later escaped from Gloucester on 19th February 1594. He was (re) arrested during the following day at Matson. Martyred at Southwark on 18th February 1601. St Edmund Campion (1540-1581) was a close friend of Richard Cheyney, Bishop of Gloucester, and he wrote to him - ‘so often was I with you at Gloucester so often in your private chambers, so many hours have I spent in your study and library’. Campion was also associated with the Alfield and Webley Families of Gloucestershire. When he was arrested at Lyford Grange, Berkshire, he was in company with William Webley, a yeoman, probably from Brockworth and Thomas Alfield reported the martyrdom of Campion at Tyburn on 1st December 1581. Edmund Campion was beatified on 29th December 1886 by Pope Leo XIII and canonized as one of the Forty Martyrs of England in 1970 by Pope Paul VI. 2 Thomas Alfield and Thomas Weobley Thomas Alfield was born in Gloucester in 1552. His father, Robert, had been an undermaster at Eton but moved to the then recently established Cathedral school, now Kings School, at Gloucester and had become Master there by 1558. Thomas was educated at Eton, where he was a Kings scholar, until 1568. In September 1568 he was admitted as a scholar at King’s College Cambridge. He graduated B.A. and held a fellowship at the College until he relinquished it in 1575. When, where and by whom Thomas was received into the Catholic Church is as yet not known. What is known is that on the 8th September 1576 he was admitted as a student at the English College, Douai, in the Spanish Netherlands. However, at the time Thomas entered Douai college the continuance of that institution was in danger due to the political situation in Flanders. He had to leave the College two months after his admittance at a time when a raid by Nationalists was expected. Thomas was living in Gloucester in 1577. His name is included in the return of recusants made by Bishop Cheyney of Gloucester in November 1577 by demand of the Privy Council. Thomas is recorded as one of three recusants living in Holy Trinity Parish, Gloucester. It is evident that Thomas Alfield still intended to become a priest. Sometime in July or August 1580 he met Father Robert Persons who had landed in England in June of that year as leader of the first Jesuit missionaries to arrive in the country. Thomas requested that Father Persons take his brother Robert Alfield as a servant. Thomas was concerned for the welfare of his brother and wanted to make arrangements for him before he himself returned to the English College which by then had been relocated from Douai to Rheims. Thomas arrived at the college on 18th September 1580 and he studied there under the pseudonym ‘Badger’. He was ordained priest at Chalon-sur-Marne on 4th March 1581. At the end of March 1581 he was sent on the English Mission using the same alias of ‘Badger’. One of his companions on the journey, John Adams, was also to be a future martyr. It is known that between his arrival in the country and when he was first arrested in April 1582 he ministered much in the north of England, including Yorkshire. Information obtained by the Government during 1582 and up to six years after his death verifies this. It was during his first three months in England that he reconciled another future martyr, William Dean, to the Church. William Dean was at that time a Church of England curate in the Diocese of York. Thomas was present at the execution of Edmund Campion S.J. at Tyburn, London, on 1st December 1581. A member of the Dolman family of Pocklington, Yorkshire, in whose house Thomas had celebrated Mass, and who was then at Gray’s Inn, London, accompanied Thomas to witness Campion’s martyrdom. Mr Dolman and Thomas were associates in writing an account of the death of Campion and of those who died with him, and then having it printed at the secret press of Richard Verstegan (alias Rowlands) in Smithfield, London early in 1582. It was not long after the publication of this account that Verstegan’s press was discovered by the Government, and the arrest of Thomas Alfield soon followed in April 1582. On his arrest Thomas was held in the Tower of London. At the end of April the Privy Council authorised that he be examined and, if necessary, tortured by being put on the rack. This is indeed 3 what happened, but as far as is known, Thomas did not reveal anything on the matters that were put to him. At the end of May 1582, the Privy Council considered sending William Dean (who had also been arrested early in 1582) and Thomas to the north of England to be made an example of, by suffering among the people in whose midst they had ministered. However, this proposal was not carried out. Thomas, between the end of June and the beginning of September, agreed to attend services in the Church of England. He was discharged from the Tower of London ‘upon bondes’. Dr William Allen, the founder of the English College, noted in a letter that ‘Fr Alfield ….. has lapsed to some extent for fear of the torture, and having gone once or twice to the heretical church has been set free’. Thomas, within some months of his release, returned to Rheims, was reconciled to the Church, and resumed his priestly ministry. During 1583 and into 1584 Thomas travelled between the European mainland and England. In this period he acted as an agent for Dr William Allen who, it should be noted, had been drawn into Pope Gregory XIII’s attempts to urge Phillip II of Spain to actively endeavour to restore the Catholic faith in England. In April 1584, for example, Allen sent Thomas Alfield to the Apostolic Nuncio in Paris, about a matter of great consequence, relating to a recent convert Captain john Davis, the explorer. In his letter introducing Thomas to the Nuncio, Allen praises Alfield as ‘very diligent and skilful in the transaction of business’. Allen adds, however, that ‘though specially sent to me from the Island concerning a secret matter, which he will unfold to you but to no one else in these parts, he ought to know nothing about the great affair’ i.e. the contemplated invasion of England. Thomas was involved in a matter whereby consideration was given to Captain John Davis handing over three English ships, filling them with Catholic sailors, and giving them to the Pope or Phillip II. A patron of John Davis was Sir Francis Walsingham, one of Elizabeth I’s Secretaries of State and spymaster. It would appear that Davis was acting as an agent provocateur through this matter. Suffice it to state though that Thomas appeared prepared to be connected to such a plan. In 1583 and 1584 there are also references to his involvement with the Catholic Pauncefoote family of Hasfield, Gloucestershire. He has been recorded as being with the Pauncefootes, John and his wife Dorothy, at their home in Hasfield and in London. What the elements of this involvement were are not entirely clear but, in part it seems to have been associated with the Pauncefootes’ decision making about whether or not they should leave England because of the situation catholics found themselves in. Thomas also helped facilitate the conveying of the Pauncefoote’s son to the European mainland. During 1584 Dr William Allen published his True, Sincere and Modest Defence of English Catholics that suffer for their Faith, a work written in response to a pamphlet written by Lord Burghley in the previous year and entitled The Execution of Justice in England.

  • Lesser Feasts and Fasts 2018
    Lesser Feasts and Fasts 2018 Conforming to General Convention 2018 1 Preface Christians have since ancient times honored men and women whose lives represent heroic commitment to Christ and who have borne witness to their faith even at the cost of their lives. Such witnesses, by the grace of God, live in every age. The criteria used in the selection of those to be commemorated in the Episcopal Church are set out below and represent a growing consensus among provinces of the Anglican Communion also engaged in enriching their calendars. What we celebrate in the lives of the saints is the presence of Christ expressing itself in and through particular lives lived in the midst of specific historical circumstances. In the saints we are not dealing primarily with absolutes of perfection but human lives, in all their diversity, open to the motions of the Holy Spirit. Many a holy life, when carefully examined, will reveal flaws or the bias of a particular moment in history or ecclesial perspective. It should encourage us to realize that the saints, like us, are first and foremost redeemed sinners in whom the risen Christ’s words to St. Paul come to fulfillment, “My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.” The “lesser feasts” provide opportunities for optional observance. They are not intended to replace the fundamental celebration of Sunday and major Holy Days. As the Standing Liturgical Commission and the General Convention add or delete names from the calendar, successive editions of this volume will be published, each edition bearing in the title the date of the General Convention to which it is a response.

  • William, Cardinal Allen
    WILLIAM, CARDINAL ALLEN, N May 1582 the Papal Nuncio in Paris wrote to Cardinal Galli, Pope IGregory XIII's Secretary of State, to update him on yet another scheme to reconvert England and Scotland to the Catholic faith. The plan had been concocted by the Spanish Ambassador in London, Don Bernardina Men- doza, in consultation with Esme Stuart, Duke of Lennox, the French Duke de Guise, and the Jesuits William Creighton and Robert Persons. It involved landing an invasion force of 8,000 Spanish and Italian soldiers in Scotland. Expanded to 20,000 by an expected rush of devout local recruits, the army would march south into England, overthrow Elizabeth, liberate Mary Queen of Scots, and set her on the throne of both kingdoms. This half-baked scheme, which was welcomed by the Pope as a glorious new crusade, needed a religious figurehead who could command the loyalty of all English Catholics and serve as a rallying-point for soldiers, gentry and the devout Catholic faithful. Everyone agreed that there was only one possible choice. The President of the English College at Rheims, William Allen, should be appointed to the key religious and secular post in the north of England, the bishopric of Durham. Allen, the Nuncio claimed, was a man whose authority and reputation stand so high with the whole nation that his mere presence . will have a greater effect with the English than several thousand soldiers . all the banished gentlemen bear him such reverence that at a word of his they would do anything.' Five years earlier Mary Queen of Scots herself

In the centre of the chapter there is a covenant with death, allegedly concluded by the mošlim, ‘ruler/proverb-maker’, of Jerusalem, which is substantiated by a camouflage of illusion (šeqer) wherewith they conceal themselves. The argument of this paper will be that poetry always seeks a covenant with death, attempts to find words that will make sense of the world despite its destruction, that will be heard when we have vanished.

  • II. Its Effect. in 1558, William Allen, One Time Canon of York Ancl
    2t2 Il terzo Convegno degli Archivistr Ecclesiastici II. THE ARCHIVES IN fHE KEEPING OF THE ARCHBISHOP OF WESTMINSTER Rev. BnnNanD FrsHER, Archivista dell'Archidiocesi di Westminster The Archives in the keeping of the Archbishop of Westmin- ster, or what are more usually called the Westminster Archives, form a unique collection of ecclesiastical documents of the first importance. Owing to the break in our Catholic history with the coming of the Reformation in England, there are however very few medi- aeval documents in this collection. There is a fairly extensive collection of papers relating to Selby Abbey in Yorkshire dating from the 13th to the 16th century. There are some presentments for heresy in the diocese of Norwich in the later half of the 15th century and an early manuscript copy of the Charter of the Chap- ter of rvl/ells Cathedral. The collection becomes a coherent body of docrments from 1558. On November 17th 1558 Elizabeth I imprisoned all the Cath- olic bishops, with the exception of Bishop Kitchin who conform- ed to the State religion. No attempt was made to appoint any- one to replace the bishops and the religious history of the early years of Elizabeth's reign is largely one of drift. Rome was wait- ing perhaps in the hope that Elizabeth might be won over while the vacillating Philip II of Spain was striving successfully to dis- suade the Pope from any action which might offend Elizabeth. Very soon .< the starvation policy,, of Elizabeth began to show its effect. In 1558, William Allen, one time Canon of York ancl Principal of St.

  • The Establishment of the English Seminaries in Rheims and Rome, and Their Fruits1
    Book 2, chapter 29 The Establishment of the English Seminaries in Rheims and Rome, and Their Fruits1 But the Catholics have been most benefitted, consoled, and strengthened by the foundations of the seminaries at Rheims in France and at Rome, which began in this way. The horrors of the queen’s persecution and the Catholics’ troubles were worsening by the day, and certain wise, zealous, and God-fearing men saw that nothing had been able to calm or mitigate the storm. They feared that the English Catholics both in England and abroad would be killed off by age, or abuses in the jails and prisons, or long and arduous exile—or that they would ultimately lose heart, witnessing every day the many savage martyr- doms of their friends and companions. And so they decided that to prevent the Catholic religion from withering on the vine2 in that land, they ought to create a school or seminary for able young Catholics, who would be nurtured and transplanted, and then grow to replace those passing away. Because they had no doubt that, no matter how this sect of perdition3 flourished, it must fall (so long as the Catholics did not despair) and come to an end, as all the others that past centuries had raised up against the Catholic Church and God’s truth had come to an end. For no heretical cult has yet been able to please men for any length of time, nor endure or persevere in one form, instead always going through drastic changes and alterations. We see this in the heresy of the Ari- ans, who, though they had the might of the princes and monarchs of the world upon their side, ultimately came to an end.

Peter Richardson (U. of Toronto) “Religious Harmony and Rivalry—from the Ground Up” This paper, with accompanying slides, assesses instances of religious rivalry in the Syro-Palestinian area, concentrating on three classes of evidence: (I) instances where rivalry seems more muted than literary descriptions might suggest (concurrent building activities in adjacent areas); (2) instances where rivalry is clearly present (take-overs, adaptations, renovations or destruction); (3) instances of obvious borrowing across religious lines (though it is obscure whether this derives from rivalry or harmony). The examples will be taken from Galilee, Jordan, and Syria during the period from about the first to the fifth centuries CE, and will be architectural or archaeological in nature. Jack Lightstone (Concordia U.) “My Rival, My Fellow: Methodological and Conceptual Prolegomena to Mapping Interreligious Relations in the First Several Centuries of the Christian Era” This paper attempts to sharpen the work of the seminar by locating the analysis of religious rivalry within a broader conceptual frame. It views religious rivalry as one dimension of intergroup relations, social formation and self-definition within pluri-religious and pluri-ethnic social environments.
