Tithing of Badbuiy. 



This is suppos'd to be under a settled Composition, which is however at least 

 questionable from the following circumstances. 



There is a Terrier, dated 1705, which gives certain specified Tithes in Right, 

 without Exemption to any District or Part of the Parish. Upon this Footing, in 

 the year 1780, a Demand was made by Mr. Stock on the several Occupiers of the 

 Lands in the District of Badbury against which Nothing, satisfactory or decisive, 

 was alledged by any Proprietor. Most were totally silent and uninform'd ; Mr. 

 Vilett alone, whose Property is nearly 100£. per annum, after due Consideration 

 order'd his Tenant, John Brunsden, to admit the Claim advanc'd by Mr. Stock 

 by entring into a new Agreement upon his Terms. Mr. Stone, who is indeed by 

 much the most extensive Proprietor, having three Farms of 200£. each, directed 

 his Tenants to declare against any Alteration, unless enforced by Law. He 

 offer'd however Nothing in support of the Exemption than a customary Payment 

 of no ascertained Date. Now the Payments are so oddly proportioned, and bear 

 so unaccountable an Appearance that the Authenticity of them is fairly dubious 

 and may bear a legal Discussion with no improbable Hopes of Success. 



The Particulars at Present are as follows.
