Chattisham, Suffolk: Letter concerning purchase of lease
Item
9 September 1761
Letter from Edward Highmore, Ufford, to the Rev'd Mr Cooke, fellow, reporting that he has been to Chattisham and finds that Mr Woodward gave Mr Flack for the purchase of the remaining part of the term of his lease £150. "The farm lets for £172 per annum, it is Tythe free and the rest of the Tythes of the Parish are paid to the Minister. I hear he is not liked by the Parishoners and they hope you will take of him for a renewall fine as much as the law will allow." If he can be of any further service in these parts he is at the College's command.
