  5. At the weekend I visited Boston in Lincolnshire and the site of the birthplace of John Fox who is famous for his Book of Martyrs, a graphic account of those who suffered for the new religion of Protestantism.

    In his book, he wrote of John Roger, who on the 4th October 1555, became the first person to be executed for heresy under Queen Mary. Of the awful death of Roger he wrote 'he was burnt to ashes, washing his hands on the flame as he was burning. He constantly and cheerfully took his death with wonderful patience, in the defence and quarrel of the Gospel of Christ'

    John Roger was a preacher in the reign of Mary's brother Edward VI and had voiced his dislike of the old religion calling it 'pestilent popery, idolatry and superstition' but Mary, a devout Catholic was now on the throne so Roger was now playing a very dangerous game. Mary's crackdown on the protestant movement saw Rogers imprisoned in January for denying the old religion and was brought before Lord Chancellor Stephen Gardiner who sentenced him to death at the stake.

    John Roger had been a translator of the bible and a friend of William Tyndale, who had suffered the same fate during the reign of Henry VIII. He would be the first of nearly three hundred people to be executed under Mary for heresy.
