CHAPTER VII. THE EPIDEMIC IN GLOUCESTER, WORCESTER, WARWICK, AND OXFORD.
In the last two chapters an account has been given of the great plague of 1349 in the southern portion of England. In somewhat less detail the story of its ravages in Gloucester, Oxfordshire, and the Midlands must be here told. First, however, the general account given in the chronicle of Galfrid le Baker, who appears to have been a native of this district, may here find a place.
