only be applied for the support of the Clergy of that Church & in that case of a lapse the Governor by virtue of his delegated authority from the Crown as well as by the terms of tlie Acts themselves has a right to collate, upon these principles in general I am of opinion tliat M'^ Bloomer is duly collated and iudiicted to the cure of the Parish of Jamaica, that his Title is well established k that he is the lawful Incumbent. -- I do therefore Decree that the Defendants shall on or before the 4*'' day of June next, at the Door of tlie Parish Church of Jamaica and between the liours of ten & twelve in the forenoon, pay M'' Bloomer his Salary from the time of his Induction on the 23 ^ day of May 1769 to the commencement of his suit in this Court, out of any Moneys that may have accrued under the Ministry Act, & have been received by tlie Defendants as Church wardens prior to the filing of the Bill, but without any interest.

It appears from the answer that the Defendants according to the advice of their Counsel were in doubt of the validity of M"^ Bloomer's Title & there having hitherto* been no Judicial determination upon the point I do not think it reasonable to order them to pay the costs which therefore must be sustained by the respective parties. And as to the Salary which has accrued to Mr Bloomer since filing the Bill, it cannot properly be included in this Decree. But I however do recommend to the Parisli of Jamaica to pay all arrears of Salary to the Reverend M^ Bloomer that are due to him since the filing of the Bill as any delay or fui'ther dispute would justly subject them to the payment of Cost.
