Scope and content
Letter from Jenkins of New Inn, that he has found the records of a suit in Chancery, relating to Cavendish, some time before 1666. It was referred for arbitration to the Archbishop of Canterbury and the Masster of the Rolls, and an award was made, giving money to the Rector in lieu of tithes. A further question was raised by a later incumbent called Smith, and a decree of 1685 ordered the setting up of a commission.
