Published online by Cambridge University Press:  16 September 2015

Extract

In Richard Simpson's biography of Edmund Campion (1867) there is an account of conditions in England in 1580-1 which includes the following sentence:

The hiding-holes had become known, by means of searchers and false brethren, by the middle of 1581, so that even thus early the Catholics were compelled, when there was a night alarm, to betake themselves to woods and thickets, to ditches and holes.
