And Sir John Neville [aged 53] knight was executed for the same at York.

[Before 28th July 1541]. During this season, the commissioners that before were sent into Ireland, to inquire of the lord Gray [deceased], certified twenty articles of high treason against him, whereupon he was arraigned and tried by knights, because he was a Lord of name, but no Lord of the Parliament.
