Note 27 — JONATHAN MARTIN, THE INCENDIARY OF YORK MINSTER.[24]

Reading edition

As an instance of Martin's carelessness of expression, I may say that he relates in his own biography that he attended the love-feast at Yarm half-an-hour after Communion at the church at Norton. Yarm is four miles from Norton. This mistake arose from the Life being written from his dictation by a second, who wrote half-an-hour per afternoon.
