 360 ST. THOMAS CHURCH. The account for 22 Ed. IV. (1483) is by Stephen Garya and John Gynn, the keepers of the guild. Among their receipts are 1 2d. for the hire of a cow, and g^d. for wool sold. The expenses include a disbursement (which is very general in subsequent accounts) of yd. to the chaplain and clerk for an obit, and 2d. tithes for lambs. Then follow the names of twenty-one persons who had collected, or were rated at, varying sums, as in former years. Keepers were elected for the succeeding year. Again the accounts are lost until 1489 (4 Hen. VII.), when William Mersch and Stephen Greyston were the keepers. They rendered their account in the vigil of St. Leonard. The first credit is : " Received from the country, 5s. i£d. [for ale sold]. Another receipt is of iojd. for one sheep sold." In 1490 John Northay and John Garia, jun., keepers of the guild, received from the country 5s. ; for wool sold, 7^d. ; and for the hire of two oxen, 2s. The expenses include the cost of making bread and ale, and for lights ; also i|d. for the pasture of sheep. Moneys were received from eighteen persons " for church repairs." In 1491 (6 Hen. VII.) John Garia, sen., and Walter Garia were the "stewards," and "John Don came within [entered the guild] for one lamb, and Walter Pole came within for one horse." Walter Congyn and Alic Garia were elected stewards for the next year. There is a dateless fragment of paper, written in the character of 6 Hen. VII., containing (in Latin) "names of the brothers and sisters of the Guild of All Saints." We will translate all that remains of the list.
