Narrative

In due time, Henry succeeded his father, and having married Joan, daughter of another Lord Mayor of London, Sir Ralph Warren, was knighted in 1563 by Queen Elizabeth. By this marriage with the daughter of a wealthy London merchant, no doubt the wealth of the family was still further augmented. Upon account of his great wealth, munifienc and hospitality, Sir Henry was called "The Golden Knight". His uncommon liberty was long remembered and spiken of by the fook folk of Ramsey, who had been accustomed to see him throw money out of his coach amongst the crowd as he passed along the street of the little town.
