COWDRAY REGISTERS

No. XV. CATHOLIC REGISTERS COWDRAY, EASEBOURNE AND MIDHURST LIKE the Registers of Winchester this transcript was prepared by the late [Father Raymund Palmer , O.P. , for Mr Frederick A. Crisp , F.S.A. , to whom the Society is indebted for its presentation. Although marked with the triple heading, they may be described more fitly as the Registers of the domestic Chapel of the Viscounts Montagu at Cowdray and the Chapel at Easebourne mentioned on page 251 , the labours of the Missionersextending over a large area. The lapse from 1762 to 1779 is regrettable. J. S. H.]
