MASTER JOHN SHORNE

For the information of those who may not have the *Norfolk Archæology* to refer to, let me add that John Shorne appears to have been rector of North Marston, in Buckinghamshire, about the year 1290, "and was held in great veneration for his virtues, which his benediction had imparted to a holy well in his parish, and for his miracles, one of which, *the feat of conjuring the devil into a boot*, was considered so remarkable that it was represented in the east window of his church."
