So Rector Resigns
Frinton-On-Sea, Dec. 16,
THE Rev. J. V. Sandys-Birds, rector
of Frinton-on-Sea for nearly 12 years, la resigning the living.
His
reason is that the Parochial Church Council have failed to carry
out their promise to increase the value of the living by £211 a year, which, with the endowment, would bring it up to £500.
The council have always been irregular in their payments. At pre- sent they are one year in arrears and have deelded that they cannot keep their promise:
Many parishioners feel that any financial saving necessary should not have been made at the expense of the Rector.
He said to me to-night, "It is im- possible for anyone who has not got a big private income to take the liv- ing of Frinion."
