Sir John Scrope, 8 th Lord Scrope of Bolton was involved in 'The Pilgrimage of Grace. This popular uprising was lead by a young lawyer called Robert Aske. Unfortunately Aske was not a soldier or organiser and a number of 'Tearaways' like Ninian Staveley gave them all a bad name and finally destroyed them all. The nobility and senior clergy were blackmailed into joining them with threats that 'Their sons would be kidnapped and their houses burnt down if they didn't.' Scrope initially refused and sought refuge with his father in-law, The Earl of Cumberland in Skipton Castle. The Rebels then besieged Skipton, Scrope in the end agreeing to join them. Robert Aske requested a meeting with Henry VIII, which did actually happen. The King agreed to make some concessions to the clergy as a result. Ninian Staveley and others continued with their excesses in The North which angered the King. Robert Aske was executed and The Kings' commissioners were despatched to round up the ring leaders. Adam Sedberg, Abbot of Jervaulx sought refuge at Bolton . When the Commissioners arrived at Bolton, The Abbot ran away, hiding out on Witton Fell until he was captured and eventually executed by Public Executioner Cratwell, described by Wriothesley as 'being a very cunning butcher in the quartering of men'. Scrope fled to Skipton, The Kings Commissioners writing to Henry VIII , informed him that they had 'fired Bolton Castle'. «b»EXTRACTS FROM CONTEMPORARY LETTERS «/b» «b»«i»Thursday 12 th. Oct. 1536«/b» Scrope wrote to The Earl of Cumberland, his father in law, "that The Commons of Mashamshire and Nidderdale had occupied Coverham Abbey and Middleham" and were advancing on Bolton to capture himself, he was going into hiding and begged Cumberland to send help to his wife. «/i» «b»«i»13 th. Oct«/b». 40,000 rebels at York, 'The worship of the whole shires from Doncaster to Newcastle', including Lords Latimer and Scrope. (Confusing bearing in mind the following correspondence). «/i» «b»«i»17 th October«/b» It was said that 'Scrope had been taken by the rebels'. «/i» «b»«i»21st.Oct.«/b» Aske reckoned that there would be 12,000 men under the command of Lord Scrope, Sir Christopher Danby, Sir William Mallory,The Nortons, Markenfelds and others. «/i» «b»«i»22nd. Oct.«/b» 'The Rest of them were besieging Skipton, had orders to attend a muster at Pontefract, bringing Cumberland and Scrope with them - if they could catch them. «/i» «b»«i»23rd October«/b» Talbot knew that Lords Scrope and Dacre were marching south by way of Skipton and Wakefield to join The King' army. ( This proved to be untrue, Dacre was lying neutral at Naworth, while Scrope was riding to the musters at Pontefract at the head of The Dalesmen'. «/i» «b»«i»28 th October «/b»A truce called, everybody ordered to disperse and go home. Scrope, Danby and the others willing to accept, but the Dalesmen were unwilling to go home empty handed. They sulkily set off on their homeward march. «/i» «b»«i»Tuesday 21st. November.«/b» The Great Council of The Pilgrims assembled at York. The Captains present were Robert Aske, Sir Robert Constable, Sir Stephen Hammerton, Nicholas Tempest, Lord Latimer, Sir James Strangeways, Robert Chaloner, Sir Ralph Ellerker, Robert Bowes,, William Babthorpe,William Stapleton, Lord Scrope, Sir Nicholas Fairfax, and Sir Richard Tempest. «/i» «b»«i»Monday 4th. December.«/b» The Pilgrims Council sat again at Doncaster. Scrope again was amongst them. «/i» «b»«i»30th. January«/b». Scrope apparently trying to make himself out to be on the Kings side, writes to Norfolk, saying that there is lots of seditious writing in the dales. «/i» «b»«i»4 th February«/b» When Norfolk reached Doncaster, Staveley and his companions were determined to take action. They set up bills on every church door in Richmondshire, commanding every man between 16 and 20 to be on Middleham Moor in harness on Tuesday 6 th February. This muster was poorly attended. There were only Staveley and his band , The Abbots servants (Jervaulx) and a few of The Abbots tenants from Witton. Adam Sedberg, The Abbot, fled to Bolton. «/i» Bolton Castle John married Catherine Clifford [4642] [MRIN: 1630], daughter of Henry de Clifford, 1º Earl of Cumberland [4643] and Unknown, circa 1530 in Skipton, Yorkshire, England.«u»«sup»1«/u»«/sup» (Catherine Clifford [4642] died in 1598 «u»«sup»1«/u»«/sup».) «b»Sources
