[32] With the exception of the High Commission by the terms of its commission. See the writ of 1559 in Gee, _The Elizabethan Clergy and the Settlement of Religion_, 150. Also Cardwell, _Doc. Ann_., i, 220, for the Commission for York in 1559. As a matter of fact, as will appear from the illustrations cited, fines were virtually inflicted by way of court or absolution fees. Again, while the canons or injunctions forbade the commutation of penance for money, an exception was made for money taken _in pios usus_, such as church repair or the relief of the poor. Examples of the practice will be found in Hale, _Crim. Prec_., 232 (Repair of St. Paul's, London); _Warrington Deanery Visit_., 189 (Poor); Chelmsfofd Acc'ts, _Essex Arch. Soc., ii_, 212 (Paving of church). For fines inflicted for the benefit of the poor see _Barnes' Eccles. Proc_., 122 ("For that he gave evill words" an offender was enjoined by the judge to pay 2s. to the poor and to certify); Hale, _op. cit_., 198 (An offender to pay a rate of 4d., and 12d. more _"pro negligentia_." 1589/1590) _Cf_. Canons of 1585 in Cardwell, _Synodalia_, i, 142. [33] _Barnes' Eccles. Proc_., 24 (1577). In the case of individuals interdiction or suspension _(i.e_., from service and sacraments) does not differ in effect from excommunication, except that the former are temporary penalties and to terminate upon compliance with the judge's order. See Burn, _Eccles. Law_ (ed. 1763), i, 616 (Interdiction) and ii, 362-3 (Suspension). [34] Thomas North, _A Chronicle of the Church of St. Martin's in Leicester_ (1866), 116 (1568-9).
