The inscription reads Given to W. Cross by his excellent Friend THE REV.d HUGH HORNBY. 1819.
The arms are those of Cross impaling another, the assumed arms of Chaffers, for William Cross (1771-1827) and Ellen (1783 - 1849), daughter of Edward Chaffers, whom he married in 1813. The wife’s arms engraved on the salver are those of Chaffin and would appear to have been assumed by the Chaffers family. A variant of them appear on William and Ellen’s tomb in St. Michael’s Church Grimsargh, co. Lancaster, the talbot or dog replaced by a lion. William and Helen’s daughter, Ellen Dorothea, married Reverend William Hornby, son of Reverend Hugh Hornby (1765-1847) in 1837.
