4411John Horn takes a standard to the rebels and brings them into LondonOn Wednesday 12 June 1381 John Horn led chief rebels into the city and entertained them at his house. On Thursday 13 June he borrowed a standard from John Marchaunt, one of the city's clerks, and rode with it to Blackheath, where he contradicted the message to the rebels of John Blyton, the king's envoy. With the standard openly displayed on a long lance, he treacherously brought Walter Tylere, Robert de la Warde, Thomas Hauk, Alan Thredere and many of the other principal leaders of the rebels into the city, where they broke into the prison of Newgate, burnt and destroyed houses, executed the archbishop, and other atrocities. Horn's fellow-conspirator and principal colleague was a certain Walter Sybyle, stockfishmonger.Blackheath,Blackheath Hundred,Kent; Newgate Prison,Farringdon Without Ward,London; LondonAccusedView Incident page
