He has been negotiating setting the Bryncroes tithe to two millers in the neighbourhood who have bid £88 for the great tithe, and £17 for the small tithe and all parliamentary and parochial taxes. They are to have the lease of it for 6 years. Their bidding is £4 less than the last year’s setting and his demand is last year’s setting.
