Should any member while on the funds of the society be found following his employment or doing anything for profit or gain, such member shall be excluded; and if he is absent from home without leaving word in writing where he is gone, he shall be fined one shilling for such neglect ; and if he be found absent from home after nine o'clock from Lady-day to Michaelmas-day, or after seven o'clock from Michaelmas-day to Lady-day, he shall for the first offence be fined two shillings and sixpence; for the second five shillings; and for the third, be excluded without appeal. Should any member while on the funds be found fighting, drunk, or gaming, or in a public-house after the time specified in these rules, such member shall be excluded.

Should either of the stewards while in office be compelled by sickness or otherwise to declare on the funds of the society, the scretary [secretary] shall call on the next member present to serve the office, and if he refuse to serve he shall be fined sixpence ; but if he serves two weeks he shall be exempt from office the next month, and as soon as the sick steward is able to declare off the funds he shall resume his duty until the end of the month. 14.
