FAT LIVING.

The vicarage of Wyburn, or Winsburn, Cumberland, is of the following

tempting value: Fifty shilling per annum, a new surplice, a pair of

clogs, and feed on the common for one goose. This favoured church

preferment is in the midst of a wild country, inhabited by shepherds.

The clerk keeps a pot-house opposite the church. The service is once a

fortnight; and when there is no congregation, the Vicar and Moses

regale themselves at the bar.
