Church property - England - Herefordshire

The first part of Earl Coningsby's case, relating to the vicaridge of Lempster in Herefordshire wherein is contain'd a full account of all the tricks which the lawyers, Ecclesiastical and Temporal, have made use of to deprive the said Earl of his undoubted right to present to the said church of Lempster (not worth Twenty Pounds per Annum) from the Year 1712, to the last Summer Assizes at Hereford, when the present Lord Chancellor, on pretence that it was His Majesty's Right to Present to the said Vicaridge of Lempster, tho' there is no such Vicaridge in the King's Books, with Mr. Kettleby Recorder of Ludlow (confirm'd in that Place by his Lordship's Interest) for his Council; and Sir George Caswall the Cashier of the South-Sea Company (made by his Lord-Ship a Justice of the Peace for that purpose) for his Assistant; Thomas Price, the Earl of Oxford's Steward of his Courts, for his Attorney; and Thomas Rodd, the vilest of all Attornies, for Price his Coadjutor, prosecuted a Quaere impedit against the said Earl, at the said Summer Assizes, with Success; but how that Success was obtain'd, the Second Part of this Case will shew.
