  "confirmation": "Confirmed. Sir John pried the splinter from the knop of the chalice with a small clamp and a chisel on the Friday in the fourth week of Lent 1538, before committing the silver to the charcoal fire. The half-hour in the kitchen with the chisel and the piece of clean linen is in Margaret Wodd's hand. The Roode was not for the fire."
