W.C., JUNIOR,

Overseer of St. Antholin, 1850.

[11] _Brodekine_. A richly-gilt stuff.

[12] It appears from an entry in the preceding year, that this
man was first sent to "Sentt Thomas Spittell in Soughwork," when
it was discovered that he was afflicted with the leprosy, or some
cutaneous disease, and immediately removed to the Lazar-house at
Mile End, it being strictly forbidden that such cases should
remain in the hospitals. These lazar-houses were built away from
the town; one was the Lock Hospital, in Southwark; one at
Kingsland, another at Knightsbridge, and that mentioned above
between Mile End and Stratford. The laws were very strict in the
expulsion of leprous people from the city; and if they attempted
to force their way into the hospitals, they were bound fast to
horses, and dragged away to the lazar-houses.

[13] The _baldricke_ was the garter and buckle by means of
which the clapper was suspended inside the bell.
