<p n="1279">the Prenises Do hereby Report That in Order to Prevent any Disorder or Intermption<lb></lb>
of Divine Service at the Opening of to Seat the Inhabitants in the new Church as<lb></lb>
much to their convenience and accommodation at was in our Power We have Caused<lb></lb>
two Plans (which are here unto Annext) to be made one of the Pews in the Body of<lb></lb>
the Church & the other of the Galleries where in are wrote the Names of the Inhabitants<lb></lb>
in those Pews in which We are of Opinion they ought to be seated. Or at Least till<lb></lb>
such Time as some other Met had be found which may be more for their accommodation<lb></lb>
and here We must Observe That by means of the great Number of Inhabitants We<lb></lb>
have Placed more in the Pews than they can Respectively Contain and same Perhaps<lb></lb>
we have not Placed at all We being apprehensive that all so Placed will not Come<lb></lb>
to Church at one, Time but if they should We Recommend it That it be an Instruction<lb></lb>
to the Pew Openew That when any of the Pews are filled by some of those Persons<lb></lb>
appointed to sit in them that then such other Persons who Come after wards who are<lb></lb>
appointed to sit in them be placed in the next or some other Pew as shall be<lb></lb>
Suitable for them for that time and that when any such Inhabitant shall come<lb></lb>
who does not happen to have any particular seat appointed be also placed in<lb></lb>
some Pew Sutable for such Inhabitant and We propose That Tickets be<lb></lb>
Delivered by the Beadles to the Inhabitants to Inform them where they are to <obscured></obscured>
it<lb></lb>
which they are to Produce to the Pew Openers that they may be placed where they<lb></lb>
are Appointed by the Plans and We Recommend it That it be a further Instruction<lb></lb>
to the Pew Openers that they admit into the Pews no Servants Lodgers on others<lb></lb>
to whom the Tickets so to be sent as aforesaid may be given but only such<lb></lb>
Inhabitant to whom they are Directed This method which we now offer We<lb></lb>
Submit as the best and Properest for the Convenient & Commodins Seating the<lb></lb>
Inhabitants at present for the all Inhabitants ought to have Seats yet a sale<lb></lb>
as we Conceive will not come at least at once and those who for the most part<lb></lb>
Resort to our Church Will soon appear So We Imagine that after this<lb></lb>
particular Appointment & the Church be opened a few Weeks any alteration<lb></lb>
or further Regulation will not be Attended with that Disorder or Bustle<lb></lb>
which might other wise be at first which we hope by this means to prevent<lb></lb>
and We are of Opinion that or one of the Pews ought to be Lined or any addition<lb></lb>
or Alteration be made to the Fronts backs or other Parts of them which may<lb></lb>
any way Obstruct the Sight of others Sitting near or Spoil the present Order<lb></lb>
or Term of them And We conceive the following Rules concering the<lb></lb>
Vaults or Church Yard & the Burying in them to be proper & Necessary<lb></lb>
to be Observed for the Benefit & Advantage of the Parish Vizt. That nobody<lb></lb>
be buryed in that Part of the Church Yard which fronts the Church next</p>
