Lacy of Pontefract

A rather curious gift recorded in the Kirkstall Abbey
Coucher:

1177-1193: Ralph Abbot of Kirkstall and Convent
confirms to Rayner of Pontefract the gift for the
hospice of 1 stone of wax annually by Robert 11 Lacy.

Presumably 1 stone is the English weight of 14 pounds,
and the purpose of the wax for illumination?
