§ MR. W. LOWTHERsaid, he would beg to ask Mr. Chancellor of the Exche- 800 quer, Whether it is intended that churchwardens of small parishes should be called upon to take out and pay for a License costing two guineas for Parish Hearses, such Hearses being kept solely for the accommodation of the poor?
§ THE CHANCELLOR OF THE EXCHEQUERsaid, in reply, it was not the practice to require churchwardens of small parishes to take out and pay for a license of this nature. At the same time there was nothing in the Act which gave them exemption. If licenses were required in the future, the credit of the matter would rest entirely with the hon. Gentleman.
