PREB'ENDARY, n. An ecclesiastic who enjoys a prebend; the stipendiary of a cathedral church.

A prebendary differs from a canon in this; the prebendary receives his prebend in consideration of his officiating in the church; the canon merely in consequence of his being received into the cathedral or college.
