Lord James Cavendish, 1742, left a rent charge of £6, issuing out of closes at Hollingwood, for the maintenance of the schoolmaster. In addition to these, the Rev.

All the sons of parishioners are considered as entitled to classical instruction; but the master makes his own charge for other branches.
