When the Parish-priest was changed an official record was written in which all the furniture and equipment of the church as well as farm buildings and location of the parish land were registered. The former Parish-prist and his successor calculated the crops left on the fields. Many elderly and ill priests kept the title of the Parish-priest while a young clergyman was entrusted with the whole administrative work on the base of the contract accepted by the Bishop. Other parish-priests occasionally used to work in diocese offices far from their parish and made use of their deputies who helped them in their work. Such situation was according to the regulations of the church and the orders of the Congress Kingdom of Poland government. Before the January Uprising the parishes possessed vast areas of farm land. Parish priests either ran a farm or hired it to laic people. Such contract was accepted for a year by the bishop and for a longer period by the civil authorities. The author discussed these problems on the base of the Augustów or Sejny diocese, but the situation was similar in the remaining seven dioceses in Warsaw province.
