Seizure of the Monastery Lands.

Henry VIII., by an Act of Resumption, added to the Crown Estates these broad domains, whose annual rental was then £273,000. Had they remained intact, it has been officially calculated that these lands alone would have yielded £6,000,000 per annum in 1792, and we may estimate their worth in 1884 at fully 100 millions or more. Where have they gone?
