Mr. Streatfeild. It is carefully tricked with the crest in vol. i. of his interleaved Hasted, at p. 93(Add. MS. 33,879). He obtained his information from the2nd vol. of the grants in the College of Arms. He notes the hawthorn trees as proper, i.e., vert, fructed gules, a detail not in the grant. There is a copy of the grant at the British Museum in Stowe MS. 677, fol. 6, and another in the MSS. at Queens College, Oxford. It is printed with an illustration in Miscellanea Genealogica et Heraldica, 5th Series, vol. i., p. 287.
