Wikipedia gives slightly more specific details about "high bailiff" positions on the Isle of Man and in Vermont, USA, which seem to be broadly the same thing. Chambers 1908 defines it as "an officer who serves writs, etc., in certain franchises, exempt from the ordinary supervision of the sheriff". Equinox ◑ 02:08, 23 July 2019 (UTC)
- @Equinox The Isle of Man position has an entry at High Bailiff. We don't have anything on the one in Vermont though. Andrew Sheedy (talk) 03:42, 24 July 2019 (UTC)
