Scope and Content

A short letter relating to a Prebend in Leighton Bromeswold.

Henry Jerome de Salis writes that his 'conjecture is verified; for there is another Prebend of Leighton in the church of Lincoln which has also it's church, Leighton Bromeswold in Huntingdonshire'. He continues that such a church is in poor condition and almost run down and it may have been 'in the means of Mr Herbert to set to rights; but that of the Golden Prebend of Leighton Buzzard would have been out of [...] his means though not of his Liberal mind'. De Salis moves on to a Mr Ferrar whose name led him on his search.
