The problems of poverty and vagrancy were serious because of the enclosure movement, rising price and beginning of revolution in England. The Poor Law in 1601 was the base of the poor relief system of this century. During the earlier stage of the 17th century, the poor relief system focused on the management of the pauper and vagrant. Poor relief tax was carried out in a limited scope. The management of the Poor Law began to change. Cash, cloth, house and medical relief were provided for paupers during the later period of this century. The working aid and management of the Poor Law were put on the very important role in the poor relief system in England.
