Excerpt from The Social History and Antiquities of Barton-Upon-Humber Athelstan having reached Beverley, visited the sepulchre Of St. John, and prostrating himself before the relics of the holy man, he devoutly prayed for his protection and assistance. Drawing his knife, or dagger, from its scabbard, he placed it on the high altar, as a pledge, that should he succeed in his undertaking, and return alive to claim it, he would show honour to the church, and increase its possessions. He did return to claim it, and the privileges granted by him to the church Of Beverley, not only fully corroborate this statement.
