This saying had its origin in the
rivalry between St Peters cathedral
now Westminster abbey, and St
Paul's. when, in 800, IN approprla.
ton was made from st Peters to
make good a deficiency in the accounts
Of st Pauls Much opposition was
shown 10 dis and il was for the time
n popular outcry, "Why rob Peter 10
pay Paul. The saying was revived
as a proverb upon the death Of VII.
liam Pitt, earl Of Chatham. in 1873. The
city Of London argued that so Illus
trious a statesman should be buried at
st. PauI's. while parliament held that
the remains Of so great leader should
be placed with the dust Of kings and
that to bury him away from the Abbey
Of Westminster would be again rob
blng Of Peter to pay Paul.
