The interior, — a very small nave and chancel, — had an east window and "a high pitched roof of oak, but no armorial ensign or architectural device of any kind, while its humble, octangular font bears marks of the despoiler's hand in no ordinary way." William Vaughan was "Clerk" from 9 May, 1555, holding the living after that date jointly with that of Ramsey until his death ; * John Greene next took it, 8 October, 1560, and on his resigna- tion Thomas Sayer succeeded him, remaining until his death in 1608. f In Ramsey Edward owned a tenement and lands, which he disposed of under conditions, before his death, to his son Thomas, and confirmed the "surrender," acknowledging the performance of the conditions, in his Will. He had also conveyed to his son Richard in a similar manner a tene- ment in the same Parish called Moye House, and land of "Moyses;" this was probably near the Manor of Mose, or Moyse Hall, which stood not far from the little bay that sets into the land between "'the Naze " and the eastern coast of Tendring Hundred ; this conveyance is also confirmed in his Will, with a like acknowledgment. Other "landes, medowes, woodes and pasters " in the same neighborhood he gave to his son Reinold, the New England emigrant, subject to an * See pp. 17 and 80 supra, f Newcourt, II : p. 687.

Robert, another son, took his father's free lands in Frating, a Parish west of Little Bentley, and Matthew, his youngest son, was given the "mentchon house" that "I now dwelle in," in Great Bentley, "called Edons alles (? alias) Dreybrockes, and the crofts of land called Hartles and Brocken Heddes," sub- ject to a similar annuity. No effort has been made to dis- cover the exact location of these estates in Great Bentley, but I have been informed it is probable that the task would not be very difficult. Wix adjoins Wrabness on the south-west, and is two and a half miles from the railroad station, and seven miles from Dovercourt. The name of this Parish, which is called Wica in Domesday, comes, as Morant remarks, "from the Saxon word J>ic, which means a village, farm, or dairy." In the time of Henry I there was a famous Benedictine Abbey here, called St. Mary's, founded by Walter, Alexander and Editha Mascherell, children of "Walter the Deacon." Newcourt * says it was originally " of the order of St. Austin, the sisters whereof, during their time, took care to have the cure [of the Parish Church, St. Mary's] supplied by such Clerks as them- selves provided." This Priory was surrendered to Wolsey by the Abbess Mary in 1527, and part of its property was applied toward * As cited, II : p. 656. St. Austin, better known as St. Augustine of Canterbury, is believed to have introduced the Benedictine rule into England by the order of the Pontiff Gregory the Great, about the close of the sixth century, so that the statements are not necessarily inconsistent; but if the Nunnery ever bore his name, it was early dedicated to the Virgin.
