the late Act of Parliament for making better Provision
for the Maintenance of the Poor. And the said Act
was read by the Vestry Clerk.

the Particulars of a Bill of Fare for the Poor in the
Workhouse , and Stated that the Same had been approved
by the Parishes of St. Mary at hill , St. Thomas Apostle ,
St. Mary Somerset , and Several others.

It was Resolved and agreed by the Vestry, that the

the Quarter Sessions, concerning the State of the Poor

subsist wholly on Parochial Relief, according to the
description of Poor, as mentioned in the 4th. Section or
Clause of the aforesaid Act.
