INCUMBENTS, Whether- having Cure of Souls ; Whether Refident; if not Refident, for what Caufe ; and by whom the Duties are difcharged. Revd Dan. Augustus Beaufort; not resident; lives on his other benefice in the Diocese of Ar- magh; has cure of souls. Duties discharged by a Curate, and fre- quently by the Incumbent. N. B. To secure residence in this parish, a Glebe House must be built; but the Corporation of Navan have it in contemplation to give an additional glebe of 40 acres, convenient to the Church, for this purpose; and the Incum- bent is in hopes to have the grant made, which it seems expedient, under the present circumstances of the benefice, to wait for. BENEFICES, whether - United, and by what Authority. Revd Conway Benning; not resident, on account of his in- firmities; has cure of souls. Duties discharged by a Curate. N. B.

The 3 first of these parishes were made a perpetual Union fome time in the 17th cen- tury ; we find no special record of it, but since that period it has been presented to as a per- petual Union; the Vicar- age of Athlumney, which is contiguous, was Epis- copally united in 1789. - The 4 first of these parishes were united by Act of Council, 20th Dec. 1771 ; ClonmacdufF was also joined to them by Act of Council, Dec. 1780. 23c United by Act of Council, 29th Jan. 1676. Mayne has been lately erected into a perpetual Curacy, and it would b? expedient that, in the 4 last parishes-, all the tythes of which are ap- propriate to the Vicars choral of St. Patrick 2 perpetual Curacies should be erected. The Vicar by the Act of , union, has £. 10 per ann. for doing the duties of them. Meatli.] 4- Number of CHURCHES; Whither in Repair, ard > n which ot the Parifli- s they Hand.
