Alms-house, hospital or charitable endowment: There is an Alms-house Supported rather volunterily than by Endowment, out of an Estate left for Charitable uses, under the Management of Feoffees, in which I neither know, nor have heard of any Abuses, or Frauds comitted. No Lands, or Tenements left for the Repair of our Church, or other pious use.
Residence upon cure: I do not Reside personally upon This Cure, but upon my Cure in Exeter.
Curate: I have a Residing Curate.– His Name is Mr Henry Legassicke.– He live adjoining to the Church – I have no Vicarage-house here. I allow him Thirty pounds a year, Easter Duties, & all other Perquisites.– I apprehend that He is duly qualifyd according to the Canons in that Behalf. But as yet He is only Deacon.
Frequency of divine service: Divine service is perform'd on Sundays, & Holy-days.– On every First Sunday in the Month twice, on other Sundays Once, with a Sermon, in the Morning.– Vide Kingston annex'd.
Frequency of communion: The Holy Sacrament of the Lord's Super is administred Four times yearly.
Number of communicants: Allowing Three to a Family, the number of Communicants will be Two Hundred, Eighty, & five.– About Twenty or Thirty do usually receive, which was about the Number last Easter.
Catechising of children: Children are Catechized in the Long Days after Whitsunday. Not always the same number of times.– There is not too much alacrity either in sending, or appearing.
