A dispute between the owners of the Crook Mill of Tullibole, near Crook of Devon in Fossoway, and the tenant farmers held in thirlage to grind their corn and malt at the mill. The tenants challenged portions of their tithe, some of which was not explicitly mentioned in the mill's original charter of 1612, while the owners contend that they only 'demand from what any of the Sucken more than what had been immemorially and uniformly paid'. ESTC has an entry for an update in the case from 1753 (T223561, BL only, copy torn with loss), but no record of this publication.
