In one of tbe old room yUllam Tyndnlo, who lived tbore for two yoora, concolved tbe idea and com meucod tlio work of translating tba New Testament Into Cngllab. In 1521 Sir John Walsh, owner of the manor bouse, bad need of chap lain and tutor for bla children, and bis choice foil upon Tyndnlo, who bad iuat completed his unlvorslty career, tyndalo waa in" great favor wltn bis master, who encouraged him, In the great work be bad undertaken. It Is quite posslblo that the transla tion would Luve been completed here, butTyndulo. bar big expressed his opin ions too freely to the neighboring cler gy, fouud himself secretly charged with borcsy and summoucd to appear before tbe chancellor of the diocese. Although at tbe time be waa merely admonished, he did not consider It safe to continue In the manor bouse, thereby Involving bis patron In dan ger, ,ao be left and proceeded with bis translation In London.
