An interesting relic of the execution of the Bishop is in possession of the rector of St. Mary's Church--viz. the sergeant's mace, which was the authority of the soldiers who conducted the Bishop down to Gloucester.
This mace, which is the only surviving example of a London sergeant's mace, was found in a house in Westgate Street, belonging to a Mr Ingram.
It is to be hoped that some day the mace may be deposited in some public national museum.
