the Rents of Houses, causing many now occupied
to be quitted, and adding considerably to the assessments

Standing Order of the House of Commons, notice

on the part of the Sollicitor to the Treasury that
a Bill for the purpose of carrying on the proposed

their determination to oppose it: and the Dean
and Chapter, influenced probably by the same
or similar considerations, had already been beforehand
with them in notifying a determination to the like effect.
