On Friday, the 15th of November, at eight o'clock in the evening, the Princess Catherine, youngest daughter of King Edward IV. and widow of William Courtenay, Earl of Devon, and Lord of this manor, died in the castle of Tiverton. Her body being embalmed, leaded, and chested, she was conveyed from thence to the chapel, and placed within a bar, covered with a pall of black velvet, on which was a cross of white satin, and upon that another pall of cloth of gold, with a cross of silver tissue thereon, ornamented with six escutcheons of her arms: there it was attended day and night, with great funeral pomp, 'till Monday the 2d of December, when, with a formal procession, it was brought to St. Peter's church, under a canopy of black velvet, borne by six esquires; at each corner whereof a banner of saints was carried by as many esquires, viz. of the Trinity, our Lady, St. Edward, and St. Catherine; the bearers all in black gowns and hoods: eight bannerels, carried by eight gentlemen, four on one side and four on the other. The chief mourner was the Lady Carew, assisted by Sir Peter Edgcombe: her train was held up by one lady, followed by six others.
