Further Notes

C.B. 7 Dec 1742 - the late Mr.Betwsorth had given a legacy of 20 Guineas to this Company and that Mr.Hitch proposed laying out the same in a pair of silver Candlesticks to match the pair now belonging to this Court whereupon it is Ordered that Mr.Betsworth's said Legacy be laid out in a pair of Silver Candlesticks and left to the Master Wardens and Mr.Hitch and that the former Order of laying it out in a Chimney piece be Discharged. ---
