Corrections, &c., in the Account of Leverton.

SOME statements which are made at page 558, relative to the Church Registers
and the Ancient Glebe of this parish, are, we are sorry to find, incorrect. They
were founded upon authority known to be genuine, and regarded as authentic.1

We are informed that the loose sheet of the Register for 1524 cannot now be
found. The oldest Register now found bears date 1562. There are eighteen
other loose sheets of Registers, between 1562 and the end of the sixteenth century.
There are also loose sheets for twenty-three years between 1600 and 1689.
The
Registers are perfect from 1689 to 1770, but are deficient from 1770 to 1780, and
this is the only hiatus in the eighteenth century. It is very probable that many
of the loose yearly sheets have been discovered since the preceding account was
written.

The ancient glebe, we find, consists of six pieces of land, containing together
21a. 1r. 36p., and not of 10 acres, as was stated at page 558, upon the same
authority as we had respecting the Registers. The rector of each mediety of the
parish formerly held about 10 acres of this glebe land, and the account we copied,
probably, alluded to only one mediety.

Some mistakes have also been pointed out in our transcripts from the ancient
accounts of the churchwardens.3 They are as follow :-

Page 562 (1498), " Candor Mythom," should be "Sandars Mytlam."

Same page and year. In the entry, "Paid Thomas Wasyn, for wyrkyng of the
sorepytt;" it is proposed, instead of sorepytt, to read "stepyll." This latter may be
the true reading; but several other entries about this date appear to make the
reading we have adopted the most probable.

Page 563 (1503), for "the Sanctum Bell foryng," read, "the Sanctus Bell
stryng."

Same page (1506), for "halloying of a corpse," read, "halloying of a cor-
porass." 4

Same page (1509).

66

Callys?" means "Chalice." This is evident. The note
of interrogation was unnecessary.

Page 564 (1524). For "the Lady Alice Pyebyll," we should, probably, read
"the said Alice Pyebyll;" she is mentioned in the preceding line of the MS. as
Alice, the wife of John Pyebyll, or Pykyll.

Page 565 (1528). "Tonebre?" is the office of the "Tenebræ," in the Holy
Week.5

Same page (1535).
Page 566 (1542).

Page 567 (1552).

For "Kachel," read, "Rachet," i.e. a Rocket Surplice.
For "viossyd," read, "ewsyd," or used.

“Amberrett ?” an Ambrey, or Ambry.

Page 568 (1570). For "Mr. Enyth's book," read, "Mr. Juyell's book." Bishop
Jewell's "Apology" was ordered to be placed in all churches.

Same page and year. For "the Church against Wilful Rebellion," read, "the
Omelie against," &c."

1 We allude to a book among the parish docu-
ments which contains a summary of parish state-
ments and affairs, compiled by, and in the hand-
writing of, a former Incumbent of the rectory. We
are indebted for the corrected accounts of the
Registers and of the Ancient Glebe, to the present
Rector.

2 Parish registers are generally supposed to have
commenced, by authority, in 1538; but BURNS, in
his History of Parish Registers in England, men-
tions some of a considerably earlier date.

3 For the correction of these errors in transcrib-
ing, for suggestions in some other cases, and for the
explanation of words which are stated interro-
gatively, because we were uncertain of their exact
import, we are obliged to the kindness and the
antiquarian knowledge of the present Rector.

4 A linen cloth on which to lay the Elements.
5 There is a curious account of the mode of
celebrating this office in BLOUNT'S Glossographia,
page 639.

6 We apologise for the mistakes which are here
corrected; but venture to hope that, although these
errors are very palpable now they are discovered,
they are as few as could reasonably be expected to
occur, when the difficulty of reading even the good
writing of the period is considered. The vagaries
which were indulged in the forms of the capital or
initial letters, and the caprices and whimsicalities in
the orthography at that time, also very much
increased the difficulty of correct transcription.

These corrections, &c., were received too late to
be inserted in a more appropriate place.
