Ship, Royal George, Son of Pell Heigham, Esq. formerly of this town, who was killed on the 29th of May, preceding Lord Howe's Victory, on the glorious first of June; another, of the family of Turnor, long resident in this town, with a latin inscription, gratefully dedicated by their relative, Frederick Henry Barnwell, and placed at the west end, in 1804; another, to the memory of Lewis Marcel Cotman, LL.

West, a relation of the Delaware family, who died in 1751; of Mrs. West, who died in 1732; and of Catherine Ray, who died in 1770. This church contains a very small organ.-From the increased and increasing population of the Town, a new gallery was erected, by subscription, in the year 1810. The antique Octagon Stone Font is also deserving of notice. At the base, are figures, rudely sculptured, much defaced by time; and, on its sides, are the following arms: 1. Azure, 3 Ducal crowns Or, each transfixed by 2 Arrows saltirewise Argent; (Arms of the town granted by Ja. I. in 1608.) 2. Or, 2 lions passant guardant Azure (Hanmer). 3.

The north porch of this church, on which is inscribed, Orate pro animabus Johannis Notyngham, et Isabelle uxoris suæ, and particularly the tail-piece, is of curious workmanship. ST. JAMES'S CHURCH. ST. JAMES'S CHURCH, constructed of freestone, is a fine Gothic building, the west end of which is remarkably handsome. The first church here, was erected about the year 1200, by abbot Sampson, who was dissuaded, by his brethren of the abbey, from his intention of performing a pilgrimage to the shrine of St. James, at Compostella, in Spain; and, in compliance with their recommendation, he founded an edifice here, in honour of that Saint. The present structure, though far advanced in the year 1500, was not finished till the reformation, when Edward VI. gave £200 towards its completion. Its length is 137 feet, and its breadth 69; the side aisles are each 20 feet wide; and the chancel is 56 feet 8 inches, by 28 feet 5. Against the wall, in the south aisle, are two elegant monuments, enclosed with iron railing; one of them to the Right Hon. James Reynolds, Chief Baron of the Court of Exchequer, who died in 1738; and the other to Mary, his wife. The baron is represented sitting, in his robes of justice; on each side is a weeping figure; and above are his armorial bearings, with other embellishments. A-Latin inscription, upon the pedestal, records the virtues of the deceased.-There are several other neat, though not very remarkable, monuments. The fol |
