Mise Money Público Deposited
An obsolete payment of money by way of contract to purchase some particular exemption. Blount, in Ancient Tenures, 1679 (p. 162), states that "The tenants shall pay him a certain sum of money called Mise-money, in consideration whereof, they claim to be acquit of all fines and amerciaments, which are recorded at that time and in Court Rolls and not levyed."
