The faiths of men cannot be changed by law. In 1549 an insurrection against the new policy arose in the West. Exeter was besieged by the Roman Catholics, and Mohun's Ottery, four miles from Honiton, of which a stately gateway yet remains, became the gathering ground of the Protestant forces, which were ultimately to subdue the rising.
At Mohun's Ottery lived Sir Peter Carew, a noble member of a generous race. Gathering his forces together he, with his uncle, Sir Gawen Carew, of Wood, in Kentis-... beare, Lord Russell, and others, marched on Exeter to raise the siege. A bloody skirmish was fought at Fenny Bridges, and the slain are said to have numbered 600 men.
Under the floor of the North Vestry lie six feet of human bones. They are the bones of bodies that must have been flung there in a heap. It is believed that the bones of the slaugh- tered soldiers have found in that sacred spot their last resting- place. Let us hope that they have found in death that unity of spirit which must always exist between men who hold their faiths so keenly that they are ready to die for them.
