To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
To such an extent was the organised opposition carried, that the impost ceased almost entirely to be collected, and the established clergy were reduced to the brink of starvation, so that large sums of public money had to be granted for their relief; and ultimately parliament in 1838 abolished compositions for tithes in Ireland, and in lieu thereof imposed rent-charges.
* See 4 Geo. IV. Cap. 99, sec. 41.
21 It was by this, the rent-charge act, 1 and 2 Vic. Cap. 109, that the liability of paymen...t was transferred from the tenants to the owners of land, being those who possessed a " first estate of inheritance " in it. Further down in the same paragraph it is remarked : " But it was not pretended " at the time that this change in the law effected any " change in the principle of the impost. " I demur to this statement, because it was strongly urged, on Friends, by the minister who had charge of the bill, that the principle of the impost was so wholly changed, that all conscientious objections to the payment ought to cease : he failed how- ever to convince them.
