Thomas Barrie (died 1538 in Newbury, Berkshire) was an English almoner who, in 1538 was found guilty of spreading rumours about the death of Henry VIII and was pilloried in the market square at Newbury.〔 It was reported that he died from shock as a result of his punishment. == Biography == Barrie worked as an almsman at Donnington Hospital, living in one of the institution's almshouses.〔 In 1538, he was accused of spreading seditious rumours about the death of Henry VIII.〔 This was around the time of the King's excommunication from the Catholic Church; Henry did not die for a further 9 years. However, Barrie's rumours were supposedly well-sourced.〔 This was irrelevant, however, as foretelling of the monarch's death was counted as treason. This was shown two years later in 1540, when Walter Hungerford, 1st Baron Hungerford of Heytesbury was charged of the crime, along with breaking the new Buggery Act, and was beheaded on Tower Hill.〔
