Academic Fellow

Notes on the Parchment: "Eton, Fellow with Chalice 1509" ( label is wrong it does not match the brass in further research, is actually Walter Smith M.A. Fellow in same chapel)

Description of Rubbing: He is facing forward with his hands in prayer. His hands have long fingers. His hair is straight with bangs and is to the bottom of his ear lobes. There is a rounded spot on the top of his head with no hair details.

He is in academic robes with cassock lined with fur, a slightly turned bottom to help with walking. There is a shorter gown with sleeves and a tippet or pocket showing with two rounded fur lappets. His feet are not visible.
