1 Wriothesley. Although Hall dates Anne"s miscarriage to early February, Wriothesley, who was better informed, states that it occurred "three days before Candlemas." As Candlemas falls on February 2, this suggests that the miscarriage happened on January 30. However, Wriothesley cannot have been correct in this case, for the Imperial amba.s.sador, Eustache Chapuys, who had been at court at the time, reported on February 10 that "on the day of the interment" of Katherine of Aragon (29 January), "the Concubine had an abortion." Warnicke is therefore incorrect in dating the miscarriage to January 19, then January 30. Wriothesley.
