Chop-church

A chop-church, or church-chopper, was a parson who made a practice of exchanging ecclesiastical benefices.[1][2] The term is used in an ancient statute as a lawful trade, or occupation.

An example, where the spelling is 'chopchyrche', occurs as the occupation of John Charles of Bishop's Milford, Wiltshire, as a defendant in a plea of debt, for 40/- (forty shillings) brought by John Wyot, merchant of Salisbury.[3]

Fireboats of Chicago

Joseph Medill Fireboat 1967 In 1908 the City of Chicago operated a fleet of large steam-powered fireboats, but by the end of the 20th Century they had largely been replaced by smaller, faster, less powerful vessels.
