the basic facts right. It is, as we have seen in the text, a tailor's bill which
was addressed to Catherine while she was still Lady Latimer. But, as she
seems to have been a late payer, it was only settled after she became
Queen, when payment was authorised by the signature of her
Chancellor, Sir Thomas Arundell. It does
not
therefore record gifts to
Catherine by Henry. It does
not
mean that the King's relationship with
her antedated her husband's death. And it does
not
show her taking pity
on Princess Mary by providing her with clothes, as the (step)daughter
referred to is Margaret Neville not Mary Tudor. Nor, finally, does it
suggest that Catherine ever 'sought and obtained a position in Mary's
household as one of her ladies' (S.E. James,
Katheryn Parr: the Making of
a Queen
(Aldershot, 1999), p. 90).
