Cant. Archiep. De capellis, etc. , apud Dugdalo Mon. Aug. , Vol. VI. 3, p. 1246. VII THE PARSON 89 In the Oxford archdeaconry of the Lincohi diocese, in sixteen years 156 presentations are recorded, and of these only 13 are described as " master, " which Avould mean that they had been through a course at a University, and Mr. Coultoni gives more starthng statistics from the diocese of Exeter, where between 1308 and 1324, a hundred years later, 376 benefices in lay patronage were filled up, and ...only 135 of these, scarcely more than one-third, were given to men in priest's orders. This means that the system of parson and vicar for unappropriated benefices was kept up as long as it Avould hold out. The Register of Hugo de Welles gives many instances, some of which have been quoted, that the parson's right in the benefices had become of very small value, and the eventual disappearance of this functionary illustrates the tendency in all Chm^ch endowments to survive in the places where they are associated with a cure of souls, and to be reduced or be abolished where there is no such association, even when there has been strong protection on the part of Pope or State for their continuance.
