Near this tomb lies enclosed in an old
wooden chest, the remains of Catharine,
daughter of Charles VI. King of France,
and the consort of Henry V.  She died
on the 2d of January 1437, and was ho-
nourably interred in the chapel erected by
Henry III. but when her grandson Hen-
ry VII. pulled down that to build his
own chapel, her body was taken up, when
the bones appeared firmly united, and
