become a respectable piece of preferment, to which one 

 of the fellows is always presented. The vicar holds 

 the great tithes, by lease, under the college. The great

I am unable to give a complete list of the vicars of 

 this parish till towards the end of the reign of Queen 

 Elizabeth ; from which period the registers furnish a 

 regular series. 



In Domesday we find thus " De isto manerio dono 

 dedit Rex Radfredo presbytero dimidiam hidam cum 

 ecclesia." So that before Domesday, which was com- 

 piled between the years 1081 and 1086, here was an 

 officiating minister at this place. 



After this, among my documents, I find occasional 

 mention of a vicar here and there : the first is 

 Roger, instituted in 1254. 

 In 1410 John Lynne was vicar of Selborne. 

 In 1411 Hugo Tybbe was vicar. 



The presentations to the vicarage of Selborne gene- 

 rally ran in the name of the prior and the convent ; but 

 Tybbe was presented by prior John Wynechestre only. 



June 29, 1528, William Fisher, vicar of Selborne, 

 resigned to Miles Peyrson. 



1594, William White appears to have been vicar to 

 this time. Of this person there is nothing remarkable, 

 but that he hath made a regular entry twice in the 



1 At Bene's, or Bin's, parsonage there is a house and stout barn, and 

 seven acres of glebe. Bene's parsonage is three miles from the church.
