November in a potatoe field, calle‘d Low Garth, near Lang-
a/rick, on the 0 se. It is of mixed, or‘bell metal, 2-;—
inches long, of an oval shape, pointed at ,the ends, and ~'
pierced through the shaft: the incription is “SIGILLum
FnATEanATis MONASTERII BEATE MARIE DE HAYLES.”—
In the centre, on a ground of flowers, is the figure of a
man, clothed in a Monkish stole, bare-headed and shorn,
standing on an elevation of three steps; holding, in his
right hand a globe surmounted by a cross, and, in his left,
a staff or Sceptre, spreading,- into three rods or branches at
the top. Although found within a short distance of Drax
Abbey, which was sometimes called also Hail/mm, and pos-
sessed a neighbouring estate named Hales, it cannot be re-
ferred to that foundation, which was a Priory, dedicated
to St. Nicholas; neither does it appear to belong to Hale;
Owen Abbey, but to the mitred Cistercian Abbey of Hayles,
in Gloucestershire, which was founded by Richard, Earl of
Cornwall and King of the Romans, in 1246, at the expense
of 10,000 marks, and dedicated to the Virgin. How it
'came into Yorkshire must be mere conjecture, as there
was no connexion between the two establishments. The
figure cannot be that of the patron Saint, but appears to
he that of the founder, who was buried there, together with
his wife and son ; he hears the symbols of sovereignty, and
is clothed in the monastic dress, an occurrence not un-
common, it being considered by laymen as a good passport;
‘to Heaven. King Henry III., with all his Court, 13
Bishops and 300 Knights, assisted at the consecration of
the Abbe , in 1251. It is now almost Wholly destroyed.
