Jack Cade led a rebellion which broke out in Kent in 1450. Calling himself "Mortimer", he claimed to be a cousin to Richard, Duke of York. He entered London with 20,000 men and laid claim to the city by striking his sword on London Stone:
"Now is Mortimer lord of this city, and here, sitting upon London Stone,
I charge and command that, at the city's cost,
This conduit runs nothing but claret wine this first year of our reign:
and now it shall be treason for any man to call me other than Lord Mortimer." (Shakespeare, Henry VI, Part II)
After three days of riot, and the murder of the King's treasurer Lord Stafford, the rebellion came to an end through a general pardon. Cade died in a second attempted rebellion.
He married Eleanor Aylesbury, the daughter of Thomas Aylesbury and Catherine Pabenham, on January 02, 1423 , Milton Keynes, Buckinghamshire, England.
