add Your note 
Lot description

Kazimierz Lipski, abbot and prebendary of the Grabie coat of arms, was heir to the Lipski family and protégé of Primate Ostrowski. In the 18th century, he took over the management of Chocz and its estates, embarking on the reconstruction of the damaged infirmarian palace and collegiate church. To finance the work, he appropriated the town's land, forbade townspeople from grazing cattle, brewing beer and brewing vodka, despite earlier privileges. He himself ran a distillery and monopolized alcohol production. He took away land, a mill and logging rights, which led to the impoverishment of the residents and the decline of Chocz's economy.

Lipski ran into numerous conflicts, including with the tenant Antoni Owsany and Shlama Efromowicz, with whom he tried to establish a manufactory. He was murdered in 1797 by his stable boy, Wargoński, and his burial place remains unknown. A fragment of Lipsky's destroyed epitaph is located in the collegiate church in Chocz.

Brass, 56 mm in diameter.
