On the north wall there is a small tablet to the memory of Elizabeth Evans, dated 1763, which appears to have once stood in the body of the church. The inscription contains a memorandum of a rather singular gift, yet no doubt very acceptable to the recipients : *^ By her will bearing date IX day of May 1763 she bequeathed ;^50 to repair pews of this Church and also the interest of ;^7o to purchase six HOLYROOD CHURCH 45 gowns to be given yearly in St Thomas' day to six poor women inhabitants of... this parish, whose age shall exceed 60 years," The Vilett family appear to have occupied the chancel; the Goddard vaults are immediately without the remaining portion of the building, on the north side between it and the mansion. The number of interments is evident from the large space covered by the stones, one of which has graven upon it a curious figure, apparently of a person in a long robe, praying. The following is an inscription upon a tablet erected in 1838 : '* Near this place lie the remains of Ambrose Goddard, Esq., and of Sarah Marva, his wife.
