198 Devon Notes and Queries, charges, under the bead might be intended for a cross fleury, or botony, or perhaps trefoils slipped. Mr. Rogers, however, in Ancient Sepulchral Effigies (p. 296), states that it is the coat of Churchill {sa, a lion rampant arg, debruised with a bendgu.) brought in by Esse ; but certainly in the sketch it has no appearance of a lion below the bend. No. 9 Mr. Rogers calls ** 3 bars (Poyntz)." The sketch, however, shows 5 bars, and the Poyntz arms are barry of eight or, and gu. In Farway Church, on a Prideaux monument, Mr. Rogers mentions the Poyntz arms quartered on the Prideaux shield, properly blazoned, so that no doubt No. 9 is intended for the Poyntz arms.

C.H.Sp.P. 157. — I will try and give E.M.G. the best information I know of this atchievement. According to the pedigrees of Prideaux given by Sir J. Maclean in his Trigg Minor IL, 218, etc., this panel belongs by its date to Nicholas Prideaux, son of another Nicholas of Solden. The latter died 1642-3, and the former 1652-3, sine prole: Quarterings of ten — I. " Argent a chevron sable, in chief a label of three points gules,** Prideaux. 2.
