by the Ecclesiastical History Society (vol. ii. p. 345.):

"He (Somerset) is generally charged for the great spoil of
churches and chapels; defacing ancient tombs and monuments, and
pulling down the bells in parish churches, and _ordering only
one bell in a steeple, as sufficient to call the people
