It is really something to sing and dance about.
Dig up those old bones and get them dancing!

Change the two party system
so people against something like abortion
but for something like environmental protection never again get bigger and badder storms
and two bankrupting wars instead.

Parliamentary History of the county of Oxford: Peace and of oyer for Bucks 9 March and 21 Dec 1382. On 24 June 1384 Reg Malyns, Thomas Sakevyll, Edm Malyns, T Barentyn, and John Reede were app to arrest and bring before the King and Council the persons found to have entered with an armed force the manor of the King's clerk, Edm Brudenell at Wodemondesle, co Oxford, assaulted his servants and threatened to kill them and burn the manor. On 25 Oct 1420 Peter Huet, John Rede and others were app to provide victuals for the King's Household. His wife Cecily gave Gathampton manor to their son Edmund Rede see 1450. Member for Oxfordshire 1390 John Rede. 10/21/1450 Edmund Rede. Sir Edmund Rede of Borstall, son of Edm Rede Sheriff, 1438 son of theM P 1388 by Christiana only dau of Robert James of Chakenden and Boarstall, son and heir of the MP 1377, and who gave £20 to the Abbot and Convent of Dorchester to pray for him 19 Feb 1438, was sheriff of Oxon as Edward 1450; JP Bucks 3/19/1463 and 13 May 1466, app Sheriff of Beds and Bucks during pleasure 13 May 1461, and was commissioned with three others 28 Sept 1462 to arrest Robert Bunkle, John Dalahowe, Rd Harreys, ang Edmund Warde and bring them before the King Chancery.

Parochial antiquities attempted in the history of Ambrosden Vol. 2: In the year 1434 John Ormesby being enfeoffed by Cicely, the late wife of John Rede, in the manor of Standelf, in the parish of Pirton, com Oxon, conveyed it by a deed to Edmund Rede. //P// The said Robert James and Catharine had issue one only daughter Christina before this time married to Edmund Rede of Borstall son of John Rede and Cecily his wife which Cecily was afterward wife and relict of Sir Thomas Sakevile knight which Edmund Rede did now obtain a grant from Robert Ponynges knight, William Lisle knight, Thomas Chaucer esquire, and other trustees of a certain field called Horshole lying under a wood called Bechwode in the parish of Chakenden, com Oxon with advowson of the said church.

Survey of the antiquities of the city of Oxford: Patronage of the Austin Friary. At the first foundation of their covent they had but a small oratory but, by the benevolence of the aforementioned Sir John Handlo, was much increased with divers additions. Wherin as I have learned his body was buried under a fair monument. Who being accounted a founder caused his heires to challenge the patronage of this place and more especially one Edmund Rede of Borstall com Bucks esquire, who being desirous to be a benefactor to this place, did lay claime to the patronag also therof. Which was after this manner first he alledged that the said Sir John Handlo had a son named Sir Richard Handlo, knight, from whome descended lineally a daughter called Elizabeth de la Pole and from her another heiress named Katherine James from her also came Christina Rede, mother to this Edmund Rede father to William Rede his first begotten son. Which, being proved, he did with licence from the king become a benefactor and the cheif patron of this place. Upon which account also the priour and the covent with license from John Cap grave their Provinciall did in the year 1456 confirme to him and his son William Rede severall chambers between their church and refectory with a garden plott lying before it toward the street to have free entrance and lodge or inhabite there when they pleas at their coming to Oxon.
