Francis Tregian owned estates in Cornwall, and held a high place in
court at the beginning of the reign of Elizabeth I. He made no
secret of his Catholic faith. Banished from court on trumped-up
charges, he was arrested for hiding a priest, St Cuthbert Mayne,
and imprisoned for 30 years. Released under James I, he died in a
Jesuit hospital at St Roque, Lisbon, Portugal, and was buried
standing up because he had stood up' to Elizabeth and her heresies.
Francis Tregian is much revered on the Continent, where there have
been recent attempts to have him elevated to sainthood. At his
place of burial there is a detailed description of how he preferred
the confiscation of his estates for the defence of the Catholic
Faith. This booklet details the history of Francis Tregian, and
includes all known details, including Tregian' Elizabethan music.
Includes a Prayer for the Beatification of Francis Tregian as
authorised by the Right Reverend Christopher Budd, Bishop of
Portsmouth.
