_Church Rates._--CH. would be obliged to any of your readers who could
refer him to the volume of either the _Gentleman's_ or the _British
Magazine_ which contains some remarks on the article on Church Rates in
Knight's _Political Dictionary_, and on Cyric-sceat.
_St. Thomas of Lancaster's Accomplices._--In No. 15. I find an extract
from Rymer, by MR. MONCKTON MILNES, relative to some accomplices of St.
Thomas of Lancaster, supposed to have worked miracles.--Query, Was "The
Parson of Wigan" one of these accomplices, and what was his name? Was he
ever brought to trial for aiding the Earl, preaching sedition in the
parish church of Wigan, and offering absolution to all who would join
the standard of the barons? and what was the result of that trial--death
or pardon?
