Last martyr under Henry VIII, died Tyburn, England, 1544. His courage was aroused by the example of the martyrs, especially Blessed Thomas More, and he suffered the death of a traitor. Gardiner's indictment states that he was executed for endeavoring "to deprive the King of his dignity, title, and name of Supreme Head of the English and Irish Church."
