ness our lianas this 11411 i April, 1804." Signed by fourteen
principal inhahitants of the town. This was a meeting held
after many different vestries had been called on the subject.
The reason of this was, that Mr. Phillips, the vicar, pro-
mised to meet the vestry three weeks before on that day ;
and instead of his rpoming, he sent a note by his curate, Mr.
Tumkius, to say, the (catkin. nthat bad any books, leads
or writings relative to the charities, wets to withhold them;
and if the town and churchwardens were not satisfied, there

was a roue to apply to.
