HENLIP, (Worcestershire) on the N. E. side of Worcester city, was a fair seat of the Abingtons, one of whom, viz. William
de Abington, married Lucy the daughter of Will. Herbert Ld. Powis. In this very house Garret and Oldcorn, the two jesuits
so deeply concerned in the gun-powder plot, were apprehended, in the cavity of a wall over a chimney, and here was written
that very obscure letter to the Ld. Monteagle, by Mrs. Abington his sister, which gave a suspicion, and thereby occasioned
a discovery of the plot.
