of a 13th Century Chronicle of Dale. On Whit Monday 1901, Mass was

Reformation.]
[Footnote 528: The Church, however, was at that time, and is now, always
spoken of as the "Shrine of Our Lady of Dale, Virgin Mother of Pity."
The Very Rev. P. J. Canon McCarthy, of Ilkeston, writes to me,
"The shrine was an altar to our Lady of Sorrows or Pieta, which was
temporarily erected in the Church by the permission of the Bishop of
Nottingham (The Right Rev. E. S. Bagshawe), till such time as its own
chapel or church could be properly provided. The shrine was afterwards
honoured and recognised by the Holy See." See Chapter xxxix.]
