Trumpington. - In this parish the overseer had neglected to make out a list of objections, and to affix them to the church door. - This neglect, the Barrister said, was of frequent occurrence in this county, and, in consequent, they were liable to a penalty of £500. - George Adams, objected to by the Whiggs. The objection was, that the rental of the land was £69, and that he had taken his son-in-law into partnership; but there not being a sufficient proof of the partnership, the vote was allowed.
