  <dc:title>Annuities</dc:title>
  <dc:description>By the Act 3 Geo III c 24 (1763) certificates of annuities and rent charges on freehold land were to be lodged with the Clerk of the Peace and entered by him in a register. This was in order to prevent fraudulent voting, as an annuity of £2 or more entitled the grantee to a vote.</dc:description>
