| Description | Printed by J Ferrby, Market Place, Hull. The booklet concerns a tithe agreement, made after Seaton was enclosed in 1657, with the rector for the rent to be paid for by a contribution from every owner. A Mr Fulthorpe confirmed the agreement but then tried to suppress it. The next rector, Mr Garnett did not accept the agreement as binding. Also mentions a dispute about some land at Whitmore. Subsequent vicar, Mr Garnett is also concerned over the validity of the agreement and the value of land.
Also mentions Mr Thomas Constable was given the living of Sigglesthorne in 1766 who spent £2,000 on renewing the ground and house and buildings.
