The Captain of the Guard. Yeomen of the Guard. w a [Endorsed] Eliz. time. 158} S r W m Segar's Marshalling of a Proceeding in state in Queen The Hawkins Family. 109 An annual Thanksgiving Service for the Victory against the Spanish Armada was endowed by Mr. Chapman, ob. 1616. In 1877 it was held at St. Mary le Bow. The Lord High Admiral Charles Lord Howard of Effingham was rewarded with a considerable pension. Admiral John Hawkins, Lord Thomas Howard, Admiral Frobisher, and a very few others re...ceived the honour of knighthood. For the rest, their rewards consisted more in words than in deeds. The Queen highly praised her brave sea captains as men born for the preservation of their country, and that they took as reward for their services. The wounded, maimed, and poor sailors were recompensed with pensions. Never was collapse more complete. Not a Spaniard set foot on English soil but as a prisoner. One English ship only, of small size, became the prize of the invaders. Parma did not venture to embark a man.
