P. G. b According to the ministry act of 1693, the town vestries had the sole au- thority to choose ministers for the parishes mentioned In that hill. Owing to the character of the population, these vestrymen were mostly dissenters, and chose ministers of their own views ; also often refused to pay Anglican rectors. Hence frequent litigation. By a clause In the charter of Trinity Church, after the call of Vesey by the town vestry, the choice of ministers for this church was controlled by an ecclesiastical vestry, although the town vestry held the purse.
