The particulars of other ales are entered for the years 1577, 1579, 

 1580, 1584, 1589, 1590, 1592, and 1598, on pages 89, 91-2, 95-6, 

 107, 114—16, 127-8. The last but one recorded ale, in 1598, was 

 on quite a large scale, so that there was paid " To the Coulee ij s to 

 marye Hewlett — xijV and among the expenses we find "for our 

 Coopes — iij d -" The total takings amounted to £13 Is. 2d. The 

 first church rate was collected in the year 1600 (p. 131), at 14c?. a 

 yardland, which seems to have extinguished the custom of holding 

 church ales in Winterslow, and thereafter, except for the election 

 of "White mu[n]daies Stewards" in 1610 (p. 141), we read only 

 once more of the merry meal with its former attractions, the 

 minstrels, the drum player, or the taberer, viz., in 1602 (p. 135), 

 " Gayned clearlie by the kingale — vij" — vij d -"
