Blessed Humphrey Middlemore
Blessed Sebastian Newdigate was born in Harefield, Middlesex, England and was the younger son of John Newdigate, a king’s sergeant, and Amphelys, daughter and heiress of John Nevill of Sutton, Lincolnshire, a pious family. His sister became a Dominican nun at the Dartford, England convent.
He studied at Cambridge University, married and became a father of one daughter called Amphelys. In 1524, his wife died and later on he became a priest and the privy counselor to King Henry VIII.
He became a Carthuisian monk in the London Charterhouse and when he was given the Oath of Succession to accept Henry VIII’s supremacy over the Church in England, he signed it on June 6 1534, but added the note “in as far as the law of God permits” to the document to indicate his conditional agreement.
He was consequently arrested on May 25 1535 with many other brother monks for loyalty to Rome. He was imprisoned in chains at Marshalsea Prison, and later in the Tower of London where he was hanged.
He was thereafter drawn, and quartered on June 19 1535 and died as a martyr in Tyburn, London, England together with Blessed Humphrey Middlemore and Blessed William Exmew.
He was beatified on December 29 1886 by Pope Leo XIII and we celebrate him with an additional Memorial on May 4 as one of the Carthusian Martyrs.
