nt to be rated, in like manner as if he should have
been actually rated for the same.

Sec. 5.--Provided also and it is hereby further enacted that no person
who shall have refused or neglected to pay any rate for the relief of the
poor which shall be due from him and shall have been demanded of him,
_and_ (see Sec. 3 of the next Act quoted) shall be entitled to vote or to
be present in any Vestry of the parish for which such rate shall have
been made, until he shall have paid the same.

59 Geo. III, c. 85, sec. 1.

. . . From and after the passing of this Act, any person who shall be
assessed and rated for the relief of the poor in respect of any annual
rent, profit, or value arising from any lands, tenements, or
hereditaments, situate in any parish in which any Vestry shall be holden
under the said recited Act (58 Geo. III, c 69), although such person
shall not reside in or be an inhabitant of such parish, shall and may
lawfully be present at such Vestry . . . and have the same privileges as
though he were an inhabitant of the said parish.

Sec. 3 of the same Act states that the word "_and_," marked in italics in
the above quotation from Geo. III, c. 69, was inserted by mistake.

APPENDIX IV.

14 and 15 Vict., c. 97, sec. 23.

From and after the passing of this Act no select Vestry shall be formed
under the provisions of the Church Building Act, and every such select
Vestry already formed under such provisions shall be and is hereby
declared to be abolished, and all the powers and provisions therein
enacted relative to such select Vestries shall henceforth cease and
determine, provided that all matters and things done by any such select
Vestry in pursuance of any powers given them by such Acts, or any of
them, shall be and remain as valid as if such select Vestry had not been
abolished.

APPENDIX V.

It was agreed in 1870 between some of the leading Laity of the Counties
of Hants and Surrey and the then Bishop of the Diocese that the sum asked
should only be five shillings, payable annually by each parish and
ecclesiastical district by the hands of the Churchwardens. When there is
an election of a Proctor to Convocation, an additional shilling is added,
making the total due six shillings. It was also decided at the meeting
before referred to that this charge might be defrayed out of the
offertory or other voluntary collections for Church purposes in any
parish or ecclesiastical dis
