*ST. MICHAEL'S, (Cornwall) bet. S. Colomb and Truro, 205 cm. 261 mm. from London, though one of the oldest Bors. in the Co. by prescription, and of great note in the Saxons time, is a mean hamlet to the ps. of Newland and St. Enidore; yet is governed by a portreeve, yearly chosen by a jury of the chief inh. out of the six chief tenants, called deputy Lds. of the manor; because they hold lands in the Bor. Here is no Mt. but two Fairs, on the M. after Michaelmas and Oct. 28. A court- leet is held here twice a year. This place was formerly called Modishole, and afterwards Michel, giving name to the Michels, a family which had once great estates, both here and in Devonshire, that now bel. to the Rolles; so that it has been sainted by a vulgar error. But the manor of this T. was lately, if it be not still, in the family of the Arundels of Llanhern. Its list of members begins in the 6th of Edw. VI.
