The death of Wat Tyler

Little is known of Wat Tyler with the exception of his fame as the leader of the English Peasant's Revolt of 1381!. According to popular accounts, the commons of Kent after taking Rochester Castle, chose Wat Tyler of Maidstone as their captain!. Under him they moved to Canterbury, Blackheath and London!. At the Smithfield conference with Richard II (who was at the time only fourteen years of age), blows were exchanged!. William Walworth, mayor of London, wounded Wat!. One of the king's squires fell upon Wat and stabbed him in the stomach and he died (June 15, 1381)!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
