 worship of some Saint’s chapel or shrine, which was
sometimes kept up in a corner of the church, and
provided with an altar of its own, and served by a chaplain
who was actually paid by the subscriptions or free-will
offerings of the members of the gild whose servant he
was. Frequently there were half a dozen of these
brotherhoods, who met on different days in the year; and
frequently—indeed, one may say usually—there was a
church house, a kind of parish club, in which the gilds held
their meetings and transacted their business.”
In the account of the “Building of Bodmin Church” in the fifteenth
century we have an example of the working of this guild system.
Every one appears to have given according to his means, and even
generously. There were personal gifts, like that of an “hold woman,”
who gave 3s. 2½d.; and another woman, in addition to her
subscription, sold her “crokk for 20d.” and gave the money to the
Church. But the success of the enterprise evidently is to be
attributed to the guilds which existed at that time in great numbers
and in a most flourishing state in Bodmin. “Religious life,” we are
told, “permeated society, particularly in the fifteenth century.” In
Bodmin at that time almost every inhabitant seems to have been
included in one or other of the many fraternities. Indeed, the spirit
of association seems to have been so strong at this time that various
groups of people joined themselves together for the purpose of
making a common gift. In this way we read that “the young maidens
of Fore Street and Bore Street” gave a common subscription in
addition to the sums received from the Guild of Virgins in the same
streets.
These interesting accounts also give the names of no fewer than
forty guilds, all more or less connected with the parish church of
Bodmin. Of these, five are trade guilds: the skinners and glovers
under the patronage of St. Petroc; the smiths under St. Dunstan and
St. Eloy; the cordwainers under St. Anian; the millers under St.
Martin; and the tailors and drapers under St. John the Baptist. All
the rest of these fraternities “were,” says the editor of these
accounts, “established for social and religious objects, for the glory
of God and the good of man.” For the “wax gathering,” money was
received from (1) the Guild of St. David in “forestreet;” (2) St. Luke;
(3) St. Michael; (4) Holy Trinity; (5) St. Leodgarius; (6) St. Clare; (7)
St. Gregory, Pope; (8) St. Thomas; (9) B. V. Mary in the porch of the
church; (10) Holy Trinity; (11) St. Katherine; (12) St. Anian; (13) St.
Stephen; (14) St. Mary Magdalene; (15) St. James; (16) Holy Cross;
(17) B. V. Mary in the chancel; (18) B. V. Mary in the chapel of St.
Gregory; (19) St. Loy; (20) St. Petroc; (21) St. John; (22) St.
Thomas “in Church hay;” (23) Corpus Christi.
One purpose of distinct utility to the parish, which was served by the
guilds, was the provision of additional priests for the services of the
church. In this they had the same object as the founders of
chantries had in establishing them. Thus, to take an example, in the
“Chantry Certificates” for Suffolk the purpose of the Guild of the Holy
Ghost at Beccles is stated to have been to keep a priest “to celebrate
in the church,” to “pay the tithes, fifteenths and other taxes,” and to
contribute 40s. a year to the poor. A note appended says that
“Beccles is a great and populous town” of “800 houseling” people,
and “the said priest is aiding unto the curate there, who without help
is not able to discharge the said cure. The said Guild is erected of
devotion.” So, too, to take another example, in the parish of
Bingham, in Nottinghamshire, there was “a guild of our Lady to
maintain a priest;” and the Palmer’s Guild of Ludlow, sometimes
called the “Fraternity of St John,” which was maintained partly by
endowments of land and partly through the donations of its
members, maintained no fewer than ten priests out of its funds.
In reality there is hardly any good and useful purpose which can be
imagined, religious or social, to which some mediæval guild or other
was not devoted. Mr. Toulmin Smith, after examination of the
documents relating to these fraternities, has enumerated the
following as objects for which they were founded, or at any rate
worked: (1) relief in poverty—a very general object; (2) sickness; (3)
old age; (4) loss of sight; (5) loss of limb; (6) loss of cattle; (7) on
fall of house; (8) in making pilgrimages; (9) loss by fire; (10) loss by
flood; (11) loss by robbery; (12) shipwreck; (13) imprisonment; (14)
aid in pecuniary difficulties; (15) aid to obtain work; (16) defending
in law; (17) relief to deaf and dumb; (18) relief for leprosy; (19)
dowry on marriage or on entry into religious house; (20) repairs of
roads and bridges; (21) repairs of churches; (22) burial of the dead.
Mr. Thorold Rogers, in his Economic Interpretation of History, says of
the Guilds that—
“they were well-nigh universal, though they were
unchartered and informal. Their prosperity was derived
from grants or charges on land or houses made for the
purpose of securing the continuance of a religious office,
much appreciated and exceeding common in the period of
English social history which precedes the Reformation,
prayers or Masses for the dead.
“The ancient tenements, which are still the property of the
London companies, were originally burdened with Masses
for donors. In the country the parochial clergy undertook
the services of these chantries.... The establishment of a
Mass or chantry priest at a fixed stipend, in a church with
which he had no other relation, was a common form of
endowment. The residue, if any, of the revenue derivable
from these tenements was made the common property of
the Guild, and as the continuity of the service was the
great object of its establishment, the donor, like the
modern trustee of a life income, took care that there
should be a surplus from the foundation. The land or
house was let, and the Guild consented to find the
ministration which formed the motive of the grant.”
This is very true, but it may be questioned whether Mr. Thorold
Rogers appreciated the extent to which these chantry funds were
intended to be devoted to purposes other than the performance of
the specified religious services. Certainly writers generally have
treated the question of the chantries as if they had no object but the
keeping of obits or anniversary services for the original founder and
his kin. To show what really was the case, it may be well to take a
couple of instances in Hampshire. In connection with the parish
church of Alton in the sixteenth century there were six obits or
chantries. The following is the account of these which I take from
the Chantry Certificates made by the King’s Commissioners in the
first year of the reign of Edward VI.:—
“(1) Issues of land for an obit for John Pigott; growing
and coming out of certain houses and lands in Alton, for
to maintain for ever a yearly obit there, in the tenure of
Thomas Mathew of the yearly value of 23s. 4d. Whereof
to the poor 15s. 4d., to the priest and his clerk 8s.: (2)
The same for an obit for William Reding of the annual
value of 15s., of which the poor were to have 10s. and the
priest and his clerk 5s.: (3) The same for Alice Hacker of
the yearly value of 10s., of which the poor were to get 7s.
8d. and the priest 2s. 4d.: (4) Another of the value of 4s.,
the poor getting 2s. 10d. and the priest 1s. 2d.: (5)
Another for the soul of Nicholas Bailey, worth annually
11s., and of this 7s. 8d. was intended for the poor and 3s.
4d. for the clergy: (6) Another for Nicholas Crushelow
worth 4s. 4d., the poor getting 3s. 1d. and the priest 1s.
3d.”
That is to say, out of a total of 77s. 8d. the poor were to get 46s.
7d., and only 31s. 1d. was devoted to the ecclesiastical services
connected with the obits of Alton. Or, if we take the value of money
in those days as being only twelve times that of our present money,
out of a total of £36 12s. some £27 19s. went to support the poor.
As a further example of the way in which property was left to a guild
as trustees, the case of the “Candlemas Guild” at Bury St. Edmund’s
may be cited. A few years after its foundation in 1471, one of its
members left the guild considerable property for the common
purposes of the fraternity, and for certain other specified objects.
The name of the donor was John Smith, and his will was witnessed
by the Abbot and Prior of Bury. It provided for the keep of an annual
obit “devoutly,” and for the residue of income to be kept till the
appointment of every new abbot. On that event the sum thus
accumulated was to be paid to the new abbot in lieu of the sum of
money the town was bound to find at every election. Should there
be any sum over the amount necessary for this purpose, it was to be
expended in payment of the tenth or fifteenth, or other tax imposed
on the citizens by royal authority. Year by year, at the annual
meeting of the guild, the wardens were bound to give an account of
their administration of this trust. Year by year John Smith’s will was
read out at the meeting, and proclamation was made before the
anniversary of his death in the following manner: “Let us all of
charity pray for the soul of John. We put you in remembrance that
you shall not miss the keeping of his dirge and also of his Mass.”
Round the town went the crier also with the lines—

“We put you in remembrance all that the oath have made,
To come to the Mass and the dirge the souls for to glade;
All the inhabitants of this towne are bound to do the same,
To pray for the souls of John and Anne, else they be to
blame;
The which John afore-rehearsed to this town hath been full
kind,
Three hundred marks for this town hath paid, no penny
unpaid behind.
Now we have informed you of John Smith’s will in writing as it
is,
And for the great gifts that he hath given, God bring his soul
to bliss.

Amen.”

The example set by this donor to the Candlemas Guild at Bury was
followed by many others in the latter part of the fifteenth century.
For instance, “a gentlewoman,” as she calls herself, Margaret Odom,
after providing by will for the usual obit, and for a lamp to burn
before “the holie sacrament in St. James’ church,” desires that the
brethren of the guild shall devote the residue of the income arising
from certain houses and lands she has conveyed to their keeping, to
paying a priest to “say mass in the chapel of the gaol before the
prisoners there, and giving them holy water and holy bread on all
Sundays, and to give to the prisoners of the long ward of the said
gaol every week seven faggots of wood from Hallowmas (November
1) to Easter day.”
One function of the mediæval guilds must not be altogether passed
by. This was their attendance at the great processions, and notably
at that of Corpus Christi. Some guilds, like the celebrated Corpus
Christi Guild at York, with its thousands of members, were, of
course, founded chiefly to do honour to the Blessed Sacrament. But,
ordinarily, guilds of every kind were only too ready in those days to
take part in the ecclesiastical pageants of the day. One example will
suffice. It is the Order of the Corpus Christi procession at Winchester
in 1435—
“At a convocation held at the city of Winchester the Friday
next before the feast of Corpus Christi, in the 13th yere of
the raigne of King Harry the sixt, after the Conquest—it
was ordained by Richard Salter, mayor of the cytie of
Winchester, John Symer and Harry Putt, Bailiffs of the
cytie aforesaid, and also by all the cytizens and
commonaltee of the same cytie: It is accorded of a certain
general processyon in the feste of Corpus Christi of
diverse artyficers and crafts within the same cytie being:
that is to say: the Carpenters and Felters shall go together
first; Smythes and Barbers, second; Cooks and Buchers,
third; Shomakers with two lights, fourth; Tanners and
Tapaners, fifth; Plummers and Silkmen, sixth; Fyshers and
Farryers, seventh; Taveners, eighth; Wevyres with two
lights, ninth; Fullars, with two lights, tenth; Dyers with
two lights, eleventh; Chandlers and Brewers, twelfth;
Mercers with two lights, thirteenth; Wyves with one light
and John Blak with another, fourteenth; and all these
 lights shall be borne orderlie before the said procession
before the prieste of the citie. And four lyghtes of the
Brethren of St. John’s shall be borne about the Body of
our Lord Jesus Christ, the same day in the procession
aforesaid.”
Lastly, it may be well to give an instance of some of the laws under
which the mediæval guild system was governed. For this purpose
the Statutes of the “Guild of the Purification of our Lady” at Bury St.
Edmund’s, which were revised and renewed in 1471, may be taken
as a sample:—
1. All members were to swear obedience to the laws: were to pay
4d. on enrollment and 1d. to the light kept by the guild in the parish
church: they must also get a surety to pay 10s. to the property of
the fraternity on their death.
2. On becoming members all shall swear to fulfil the wills of John
Smith and Margaret Odham, which were written in English at the
beginning of the book, and which were to be read every year at the
Guild dinner on February 2. After the dinner all members of the Guild
shall kneel and say the De profundis and the “prayers that long
therto” for the souls of the above founders.
3. All officers to be elected yearly.
4. All shall “have every year ther presens and speche daye at the
charnell or in the churchyard in the day of the Epiphany for the
ordynaunce and profit of the guylde. And yf any be absent of the
sayde fraternytie but if he have a reasonable excuse he shall loose a
pounde waxe.”
5. All shall come to the Guild hall “anent after evensonge the daye of
the Purification to the beadesbydding and there devoutly to praye
for all the brethrene and systerne sowles that have been in guylde
aforesaide.” For absence a fine of a pound of wax.
6. On the death of any one member all shall attend at the “Exequye
and Dirige.”
7. The Alderman and Dye (i.e. sword-bearer) shall have £10 to give
a dinner to the Guild out of the “crease.” The £10 to be delivered to
the next Alderman and Dye at election.
8. The Alderman and Dye to have for their trouble 3s. 4d., and one
pound and a half of wax for a torch. Also the Alderman shall have 6
gallons of ale and the Dye 4 gallons, “and every eche of the four
holders two gallons ale of the best of the guylde aforesaide.”
9. On the death of any member, all shall contribute ½d. to be
disposed of to the poor by the Alderman.
10. If a brother is sick whilst the Guild is “holden” he shall have
meat and drink also as well as the one present at the dinner.
11. The number of the brethren were not to exceed 32, that they
must be “of goode name and fame.”
12. If any of the members “fall in stryfe together, ... they shall not
pursue to judicial courte,” but notify it to the Alderman, who shall try
to settle it and “bring them to accord.” If he cannot, “then they may
goo to common law.”
13. If any brother “have anie need of our heres or lighte to any
friend of his dead,” he may have them for the “common profit of the
guylde.” If he take any other, he must pay a pound of wax.
14. Accounts to be passed every year by four auditors.
15. An unworthy member may be expelled by the “more part of the
fraternity,” and any property he holds must be returned.
16. The Guild shall maintain 5 tapers, one of 5 lbs. and four of “five
quarters,” burning in the Church of St. James; one shall burn each
year at the sepulchre—“one year in the church of our Lady, and
another year in the church of St. James.”
17. The fraternity shall sing a Mass on the Purification at one of the
churches, at which each shall offer ¼d. for dead members.
18. The Alderman shall find a part of the high days in the Guild hall,
that is, “all manner naperie to the sayde deyce or table longing; and
also all manner stuffe to the firste messe except bread and ale. And
the Dye, the charges in the kechen and the holders all the
necessaries longing to the buttery, pantry and to the said tables in
the guylde hall except bread and ale.”
19. All who hold any “Guylde Cattle” shall come to the Hall on the
Sunday after the Assumption, and the Alderman, Dye and auditors
shall have the roll of stock and the increase entered.
20. The Alderman and Dye “shall receive of two houses in Wellis
street of the gift of Jeffery Glemes for the 2s. yerely, keeping the
reparation of four alms-houses joining to them.”
21. Upon any alienation of the lands, etc., that John Smith gave to
the town of Bury, the same shall be done with those which Margaret
Odham gave to the Candlemas Guild, also those belonging to St.
Mary’s aulter, to St. Thomas’ aulter and to the almshouses.
22. According to John Smith’s will, four of the feofees of the property
to be chosen at Candlemas are to give account to the other feofees.
They shall provide for the Dirge on St. Peter’s even at Midsummer
and the Mass next day for J. S. and his wife Anne.
23. Those who have keys of the hutch or of the porch door of Guild
are to bring them in at Candlemas, and they are to be given to those
“who are considered best to keep them.”
In the foregoing chapters I have endeavoured to gather together
from the scattered and frequently minute material which exists some
illustrations of parochial life in mediæval times. The result must
speak for itself; it is, I feel sure, as far as it goes, correct as to the
outline of the picture. Had I not been anxious not to weary the
reader by the very multiplicity and minuteness of the details, the
result might have been perhaps more definite, and the lights and
shades been more effective. As it is, however, my purpose has been
accomplished if I have succeeded in interesting them in this
description of the life led by our ancestors in a mediæval parish—a
life so strangely and entirely different to that which now exists in the
towns and villages of modern England. For “in the Middle Ages,” says
a writer in a late number of The National Review, in a passage
already referred to, “the conscious sharing in a world-wide tradition
bound the local to the universal life, and through art and ritual the
minds of the poor were familiarized with facts of the Christian faith.
By our own poor I fear these facts are very dimly realized.”
