Nicholas Brigham
text:
Nicholas Brigham, is mentioned by Bale as a Latin scholar and antiquarian, who gave up literature to practise in the law courts, and who flourished in 1550. To this Pits adds that he was no common poet and a good orator, and that in 1555 he built a tomb for the bones of Geoffrey Chaucer in Westminster Abbey. Later writers have taken this to be Nicholas Brigham, a "teller" of the exchequer, who died in 1558.
