By this evidence also it appears tliat tliere were at that 
juncture only four canons at the Priory;^ and that these, 
and their four household servants, during this sequestration, 
for their clothing, wages, and diet, were allowed per ann. 
XXX lib.; and that the annual pension of the lord prior, 
reside where he would, was to be x lib. 
In the year 1468, prior Berne, probably wearied out by 
the dissensions and want of order that prevailed in the con- 
vent, resigned his priorship into the hands of the bishop.
