( b ) On the first .late robes of the Order of the Garter were directed to be issued to him, and on the last date his stall was in possession of Sir Thomas Holmid. See Beltz's "Knight* of the Order." Mr. Courthope remarks that " No imposition appears to have been taken after his decease, and although in two out of the six inquisitions taken on the death of his widow in 1-101, his 2d daughter, Philippa, is made to be born in 1378 and 1380 (subsequent to the date of death assigned to her father), there are others making her to be bom in 1370 and 1370 ; there is likewise a variation of ten years in the age assigned by these Inquisitions to her elder sister, Elizabeth. Philippa must, in fact, have been born as early as 1370 inasmuch as her nephew, Richard le Strange (the son of her younger sister) was of full age in 1401 and she herself was first married to Walter, Lord Kitzwalter (who died 1380), and secondly to Sir John Golafre, Lord of Langley, co. Oxon (who died 1300)." (•'•) The coheirs were (1) Elizabeth, his 1st da., who m.

( J ) In Collinson's "Somerset " it is stated that she sold in (1371)), 50 Ed. III. the reversion of the manor of Dunster, &C., to Dame Elizabeth Luttrell.
