Annuellars

Annuellars are chaplain priests who celebrated the commemoration masses for the departed on their annuals. Their usual pay was three marks yearly. At Exeter there were twenty-four, who acted as subdeacons in choir; at Wells, fourteen: both corporations lived in a collegiate manner. The name was preserved at Llandaff so late as 1575.
