 The Diary of Thomas Burton: 28 February 1658-9 | British History Online
John Lilburne died in 1657, at Eltham, where he is said to have "joined the quakers, and preached among them." Though only in his thirty-ninth year, he had suffered, and probably, in some instances, had provoked, numerous injuries, unfeelingly inflicted by the successive powers in possession.

Noble, "refused to sit with Pride and Hewson, one of whom had been a drayman, the other a cobler." The undoubted possession of armorial bearings by these Lords, risen by good fortune from "the working clashes," seems to have perplexed that diligent investigator of heraldic lore.
