The Parson s Cause was an important legal and political dispute in the Colony of Virginia often viewed as an important event leading up to the American Revolution . Colonel John Henry, father of Patrick Henry , was the judge that presided over the court case that decided the issue, and the relatively unknown Patrick Henry advocated in favor of colonial rights in the case. The case arose with regard to the Two Penny Act , an act of the Virginia House of Burgesses Virginia colonial legislature passed in 1758. According to legislation passed in 1748, Province of Virginia Virginia s Anglican clergy were to be paid 16,000 pounds of tobacco , one of the colony s major crops, per year. Following a poor harvest in 1758, the price of tobacco rose from two to six pennies per pound, effectively inflating clerical salaries. The House of Burgesses responded by passing legislation allowing debts in tobacco to be paid to in currency at a rate of two pennies per pound.

Parson s Barn lies directly east of Studland, a few hundred Metres south of Handfast Point and the Old Harry Rocks . The cave is about five Kilometres northeast of Swanage. The sea once washed a huge hole in the base of the cliffs. This cavern was then used as a smugglers cave. A large section has collapsed since then and has been eroded away by the sea. Now only a few chalk stacks remain and the waves have cut arches through the base of the stacks. As the winds blow through these arches during severe gales it results in sounds similar to a ghostly pealing of bells. Legend has it, that the eerie sound comes from a ship, transporting bells to a church in Poole , that sank because of the crew s blasphemy.

  1. Parson's freehold

    Orphan date February 2009 The parson s freehold refers to a system within the Church of England in which the rector or vicar of a parish holds title property title to benefice property, viz., Church, Churchyard and Parsonage, the ownership passing to his successor. This system is to be phased out, under the Ecclesiastical Offices Terms of Service Measure . The parson s freehold is a type of benefice originally also it established income from and tenancy of certain properties in recompense for the priest s exercise of ecclesiastical offices. These would have included occupancy of the rectory and its outbuildings , fees and Easter offerings, income from Tithe England tithe s received in the form of a tax on properties within the parish bounds , and income from the glebe parcels which could be farmed for the rector s profit . These formed the basis for the rector s income, out of which he lived, and kept the Church. Communion Alms met some of the needs of the poor. Often the Patron or another landowner would take the lead in repairs and extensions of the Church sometimes the Rector or Vicar did so himself. For the purposes of law the rector owns the remaining property as a corporation sole . However, unlike usual fee simple ownership, the property did not pass to his heir upon his death. Instead, it passed to the next officeholder. Development Canon law for benefices can be traced back to the councils of Council of Orl ans Orl ans in 511 and 533, and Council of Lyons Lyons in 566.

  1. The Parson's Handbook

    Image Parson sHandbook.jpg thumb The dust jacket cover of 13th revised edition of The Parson s Handbook by Percy Dearmer. This edition was heavily revised and rewritten by Cyril Pocknee. The Parson s Handbook is a book by Percy Dearmer , first published in 1899, that was fundamental to the development of liturgy in the Church of England and throughout the Anglican Communion . The 19th century Oxford Movement brought the High Church within the Church of England into a place of confident leadership of the mainstream of the church. By the end of that century, many were struggling to find suitable forms of worship that were at once obedient to the letter of the Book of Common Prayer if not its intention and reflected the desire to a return to more Catholic forms of ritual and ceremonial. Some in the church took on board much of the ritual of the Tridentine Mass . Dearmer and other members of the Alcuin Club decried this wholesale adaptation of Italianate forms, and they campaigned for a revived English Catholicism that was rooted in pre English Reformation Reformation ritual, especially in the Sarum Use something they termed the Anglican Use or English Use . The Parson s Handbook is Dearmer s brotherly advice to fellow churchmen about the correct way to conduct proper and fitting English worship. Dearmer s writing style is strong he disparages customs he finds quaint or misguided, and makes good use of his subtle wit. Although Deamer s directions would have originally been considered High Church, the popularity of the Handbook has made them normative. This norm has been influential throughout those portions of the Anglican Communion that have been open to the development of a more Catholic ritual. Although the Handbook now appears somewhat dated, and many Anglican ecclesiastical province provinces have adopted more modern liturgies than the single Book of Common Prayer BCP ...
