On the first seat,--1. _A chevron between three roses_ (LOWER). --2. _Per fess, three pears in base, in chief a demi-lion rampant_ (PERROTT).--3. _Three castles_ (KESTELL).--4. _An annulet surmounted by a mullet._--5. _Three chevrons ermine_ (ESSE?).--6. _A chevron engrailed, between three talbots passant_ (CARVETH or TREGASSAWE).--7. _A chevron between three trefoils, stems erazed._--8. _Two bars, in chief three roundels._--9. _A fess fretty._--10. _A cross moline_ (UPTON?).--11. _A chevron between three birds._--12. _A chevron between three boars' heads_.--13. _A chevron between three moors' heads affrontée, couped at the shoulders_ (TREGENNA?).--14, as 1.

LOWER. The crest, _an unicorn's head couped at the shoulders_, in full relief at the corners, and the initials N.L. and E.L., together with the date 1631, is carved on the panels. LOWER impaling KILLIGREW appears also on the brasses. The character of the carving is superior for the era, and its subjects heraldically interesting. A few words further here concerning two immediate descendants of this,--at the time,--numerous Cornish race, who acquired some renown, the one in amusing, and the other in preserving this transitory life of ours. John Lower of Tremeer, brother to Sir Nicholas, had a son Sir William, a cavalier strongly attached to the royal cause. He was a dramatist, and retired to Holland during the Commonwealth that he might enjoy peaceful companionship with the muses. He was a great admirer of the French poets, particularly Corneille, and on their works built the plans of four out of the eight plays which he wrote. He also issued translations from the French, and edited a _Journal_ of the movements of Charles II. while in exile. He subsequently possessed Clifton as heir-general of the family, on the decease without issue of Thomas Lower (the son of Sir William Lower, Sir Nicholas' brother), to whom Sir Nicholas left it. He died in 1662. Richard Lower, the other descendant, was a celebrated London physician, and the author among other works of a "_Treatise on the Heart_," which "attracted much notice, in consequence of the chapter on the transfusion of blood which the author had practised." He died in 1690, and was buried at St. Tudy.
