William Laud

sometimes Fellow, afterwards President of S. Johns Coll, was consecrated Bish. of S. David in the Chappel belonging to the house of the Bishop of London, (with Joh. Davenant to Sarum and Dr. Val. Cary to Exeter) by the Bishops of London, Worcester, Chichester, Ely, Landaff and Oxon, on the 18 of Nov. 1621, the Archbishop (Abbot) being then thought irregular for casual Homicide. Thence he was translated to Bathe and Wells, in Aug. 1626, thence to London in Jul. 1628, and at length to Cant. in Sept. 1633. He was beheaded on Tower-hill near London on the tenth of January, 1644/5. in sixteen hundred forty and four, under which year you may see more of him among the Writers, p. 30.31. &c. The See of Cant. lying void till 1660, was then supplied by Dr. Juxon B. of London, as I shall elsewhere tell you.
