A History of Lancashire

by Henry Fishwick

[235] See Roby’s “Traditions of Lancashire”; Harland and Wilkinson, “Legends and Traditions of Lancashire,” etc.

[236] A somewhat similar tradition obtains of Wardley Hall, where the skull of Roger Downes, who was slain in London in 1676, was preserved for centuries.

[237] A curious instance of the alteration in the meaning of words. Of course, by “indifferently” is meant alike to all.

[238] See “History of St. Michael’s–on–Wyre,” p. 64.
