| The wardmote had inquest jurisdiction over immorality or bad behavior such as vagrancy, delinquency, illegitimacy, and disputes. |
| It was divided into wards, each governed by an alderman who presided over the wardmote, and represented his ward at the folkmote. |
| About the middle of last December, I received a citation to attend a wardmote, to be held in the schoolroom of my parish. |
| At the Wardmote the ward's Alderman appoints at least one Deputy for the year ahead. |
| Secondly, they are presidents of the wardmote and governors each of that ward whereby he was elected. |
| Mr. Houston, the attorney who officiated at the wardmote, was not suffered to make his report of the election. |
