<p n="1817">And wee are of Opinion that all these Charges & Expences<lb></lb>
Except the Charge of the said new wall are no more then what he<lb></lb>
was oblidged to by Covenants in his Lease as repairs of ye old<lb></lb>
wall, the shines and the housee barne and other buildings upon<lb></lb>
the Farme and the Scowring of Ditches Or such as he thought fitt to be<lb></lb>
att for his own Benefitt & profitt as the Levelling of Mole hills Or<lb></lb>
such as hapned by reason of his occupancy or being Tenant of his<lb></lb>
Farme to witt there paires of the Church.</p>
<p n="1818">And as to ye Charge of the new wall wee are Informed that ye<lb></lb>
repaires of the old wall was computed at least to be one Hundred<lb></lb>
Pounds P Ann Charge which from the year 1703 when the New<lb></lb>
wall was made) to the End of Mr: Collyere Lease (being then Nine<lb></lb>
teen years to come) might be reckoned at £1900: and if as Mr:<lb></lb>
Collyer alledges the new wall is made it strong & substantiall<lb></lb>
that it will be a safe sence for the Land within it during all his Term<lb></lb>
and will require but a very small Annuall Charge to repaire it<lb></lb>
Then wee are of Opinion that Mr. Collyer by laying out Six or Seven<lb></lb>
Hundred pounds at Prsent in makeing the said new wall has done<lb></lb>
an Act by which soe will save many Hundred pounds of that<lb></lb>
Charge which he must otherwise have necessarily<gap reason="illegible"></gap>
been a<lb></lb>
put unto within ye Terme of his Lease</p>
<p n="1819">And upon the reasons before menconed & in regard that <lb></lb>
upon a full Enquiry made into the value of the Estate now held<lb></lb>
by him of this Hospitall Wee are well satisfied that the same<lb></lb>
was lett to him upon such reasonable Termes That it may very<lb></lb>
probably at the End of his Lease yield a much greater fine then<lb></lb>
he paid for the same Wee are of opinion that this Hospitall lyes<lb></lb>
under no direct obligation to make him any allowance for the<lb></lb>
said Charges and Expences</p>
<p n="1820">But nevertheless wee Considering that these charges were<lb></lb>
Considerably encreased by the violent storme of wind and some<lb></lb>
Extraordinary Tydes which have hapned since the Comencemt<lb></lb>
of his Lease Wee are of opinion that the wast which was<lb></lb>
Comitted by him and his son in felling Severall young Oakes<lb></lb>
in Deanes wood in the year 1705 and the Takeing & Converting<lb></lb>
of Severall Elme Trees which were felled or blowne down in the<lb></lb>
upland Tarme in or before that year the fact whereof was<lb></lb>
Discovered by the Comittee in the said year 1705 and then a<lb></lb>
Confessed by the said Mr: Collyer and his son but alledged to<lb></lb>
be done thro' Inadvertenry should be Excused and that he<lb></lb>
should not be prosecuted for the same.</p>
