It is interesting to note in this connection that on August 16, 1762, was "Pd." one "Barnard Shaw maintenance of Rioters and Evidence, 1-11-6." A circumstance of considerable human interest, too, and one possibly little known, is the great aversion to the sight of bears held by the inhabitants of the Isle of Wight, at least in the year 1891.

"1649 Three soldiers shot to death in Burford Churchyard May 17th." "Pd. to Daniel Muncke for cleansinge the Church when the Levellers were taken 3s. 4d." A walk through the streets of the old town is refreshing to an antiquary's eyes. Vandalism is not, however, quite lacking, even in Burford.

"for a Tar Barrell and Syder." In the same year an itinerant beggar seems to have won alms from the authorities under a false ticket: "Given ffrancis Browne by consent who brought a Let pas by that name, but afterwards his name apeared to bee ffrancis Jackson 1s. 0d. "Pd. the Cryer to whip him and for thongs 1s. 1d."
It is pleasant to think that the St. Ives folk were such good Christians. In 1685 the borough paid some attention to the condition of its drum: "Pd Henry Anthony for new making the Towne drum 2s. 6d." Later, there is a payment to Henry Barber for beating the same.
