Excerpt from Two London Chronicles From the Collections of John Stow: Edited for the Royal Historical Society
For the most part the Chronicle consists of brief notes, probably written down immediately after the events to which they relate. Executions, penances for heresy, and incidents of civic history furnish the principal staple of the narrative. Passages of more moment, which may be mentioned, are the reference to Queen Catherine noted above, the description of the prosecution of the Maid of Kent,' the long account of the procession on 11th Nov. 1535, 3 and the curious notice of Thomas Cromwell's alleged parentage.
