[233] A paper among the Norwich records contains the sums paid to the aldermen and the amount given by them to the deacons of the different parishes. Other accounts in the "Maiores booke" show the sums given by the deacons and by the commissioners for the medical treatment of the poor. Thus in 1571-2 a deacon paid iiiid. to "Glavin's wife to heal Tom Parker's leg," while Mr Thomas Beament paid 6/8d. to "Mother Colls for healinge a broken legg of Margarete Paine, a pore wydow in the Normans."
