The helmets of three Godolphins still hang in the south- east corner of the church, the silken banners that once hung with them having long since mouldered into dust. At the restoration of the church in 1892 two large marble slabs were removed from the floor of the church, which marked the stairway leading to the Godolphin vault. John Evelyn, in his account of the burial of Margaret Godolphin, speaks of this quiet corner as the " dormitorie of her family. " 103 A Godolphin Helmet in Breage Chur...ch. Sir John Godolphin was succeeded by his son, Sir William Godolphin ; this Knight in his turn was repeatedly Sheriff of Cornwall. We may gather from the State Papers* that his character and principles, to say the least, were somewhat robust. Ships cast upon the wild, rockbound coast of Breage, it is complained, were snapped up as toothsome morsels by the Sheriff, and their contents carried doubtless as loot to Godolphin. His burial is recorded in the Breage register on 30th July, 1570. He was succeeded by his son, the heroic Sir *State Papers, 1526.
