 Poor. — As much land allotted for their use by the adl:, 



as should produce 36I. a year, to be distributed to poor 

 persons not receiving relief or alms ; which has been ap- 

 plied in the purchase of coals : the land is now worth 50I. 

 a year. In fuel, they are not deficient ; but not quite 

 equal to the former privilege.. As to cottage cow-keepers 

 they are all over: many before the enclosure, but the al- 

 Jotments all thrown to the farms, and in this respeiSl they arc 

 much worse situated, though many had no right, and paid 

 when the common was driven. Stredgit has a common, 

 and better. But take the poor here in general, employ- 

 ment has multiplied ; so mucli, that they are in a better 

 condition ; better fed, and better clothed. 



POPULATION. 



Twenty-eight years before the enclosure!
