VI.
Churchwardens' Accounts and Memoranda.

Text from same MS. (A), but not printed in full.

The preceding pages supply the text of MS. A. (1239/1) in full till the year 1495. After that year the system of accounts as given in the MS. becomes very largely a repetition of items already set down. To avoid such a continual reiteration in this edition, the plan adopted from this date, 1495, has been to supply, as before, the complete frame of the yearly records, but to print only such items of the accounts and other matter as are of distinct value. In other words, the aim has been to exclude such matter as would bury the gist of the history beneath a mass of text consisting almost wholly of matter printed continually in the earlier pages. Certain sections, however, as, for instance, the income of the church from casual sources, have been printed in full at all times. The omission of any matter is shown by the presence of asterisks * * * , or its presence in the MS. is stated between square brackets[].

[Thomas Vstum serves again next year. The explanation of his serving for two years successively is to be found in the fact that a John Edyall served apparently as warden for part of 1524-5. His name is scratched out, and that of Thomas Vstum substituted more than once in the accounts for 1524-5.] [typographic *****]
