Brutus Babington
Brutus (or Brute) Babington (died 1611) was an Englishman who became the Church of Ireland bishop of Derry.
==Life==
He was a native of Cheshire, and was admitted to Christ's College, Cambridge, where he matriculated in 1572. He graduated B.A. in 1576, and became a fellow also in 1576, with an M.A. from St John's College, Cambridge in 1579.
He was rector of Thurcaston, Leicestershire, from 1583. He was collated to the prebend of Bishopshall, in Lichfield Cathedral, 18 September 1592, and was rector of Tatenhill, Staffordshire, from 1602.〔 On the death of George Boleyn, Babington applied for the deanery of Lichfield unsuccessfully. On 6 July 1603 he complained to Gilbert Talbot, 7th Earl of Shrewsbury that the chancellor of the diocese, Zachary Babington, had obstructed his suit and dispossessed him of his divinity lectureship.
In 1610 he was appointed to the bishopric of Derry, after some opposition from supporters of Dean William Webb. He was consecrated at Drogheda, and died in 1611, probably on 10 September. Philip O'Sullivan Beare tells the story that his death was ascribed to a divine punishment for his sacrilege in attempting to burn a statue of the Virgin Mary, which, however, remained unconsumed, while the perpetrators of the outrage were either struck dead on the spot, or, like the bishop himself, died a lingering death.
