INTBODUCTION.
The following pages comprise, I believe, the first serious attempt at
compiling what may be called a biographical history of one of our ancient
educational foundations ; in the sense of not only giving a chronological list
of all the members, but of affording also some information as to their
subsequent career. It need hardly be added that neither of these objects
has been entirely secured ; and that in the case of the latter, success has
fallen considerably short of what was desired.
As regards the completeness of the list of members of the college : irom
1559 onwards, thanks to the foresight of Dr Caius, our Entrance List may
be considered as nearly perfect ; at any rate we have no ground to suppose
that more than a few names of the ordinary students or of those graduates
who came to reside as fellow-commoners, have been omitted from the
register. Those who first entered the college as fellows, it is true, were not
included ; but they are very few in number, and can generally be ascertained
either by the inclusion of their names in the account-books, or by some
reference to them as tutors. Practically, therefore, the name of every
member of the college, in the modem sense of the term, is certainly known
from 1559\ This leaves an interval of about 220 years frx)m the first
foundation, which can only partially be fiUed up. The University matri-
culations commence in 1544, and therefore carry us a few years farther
back ; but their information is defective in two respecta They only assign
the college at which a student matriculated, but give no hint of any
subsequent migration. Moreover they give the names only, omitting all
account of birthplace and parentage. They are also fiax fix)m complete, as
many students, especially those who did not contemplate staying for a
degree, altogether omitted to matriculate.
For the two centuries which lie behind this period, our sources of
information are fewer than we could wish. They consist principally of our

and allowed corresponding priyilegee, bat also many tradesmen and other townsmen whose

VI INTRODUCTION.
older bursars' account-books ; of title-deeds and early leases in our Treasury ;
references in the wills of early masters and fellows ; ordination records at
Ely and Norwich ; names of donors and benefactors recorded in the Annah ;
and other miscellaneous sourcea It seems certain that complete lists of
the members on the foundation must have existed from the commence-
ment, for the various account-books could not fail to give the names of all
those to or from whom payments were due. But unfortunately these books
now only commence in 1422, and are missing during a good many sub-
sequent years. The foresight of bishop Bateman had indeed provided another
source of information which, if his regulations had been properly carried
out, would have yielded a quantity of interesting and valuable material.
In his statute De Sociorum nominibua Episcapo Norwicensi et Capitulo annis
singulis intimandis he enacts that the master, after celebrating in Norwich
Cathedral on or about Michaelmas Day, was to hand to the bishop, and to
the prior of the convent, lists, sealed by the college, of the names, surnames,
and degrees, of the fellows, with an account of those who had died, or
left the college, during the past year. The object is expressly stated to be
that the bishop and the chapter might appeal to these fellows for help
or advice according to the post they occupied, or the academic degree which
they had attained. An oath was exacted of every candidate, on admission
to a fellowship, that he would never in any way act against the bishop or
chapter, ** sed cum eis pro justo et competenti salario, cum extra exercitium
scholasticum fuerit, quando et cum legitime fuerit requisitus." He was to
be, in fiACt, their standing counsel in Civil and Canon Law, and in Theology :
whether they had a similar claim on the medical skill of the physician is
not stated. That such lists were duly sent for very many years to the
bishop and the prior, and, after the Suppression, to the dean, is certain from
our own records. But unfortunately, after repeated enquiries in the proper
quarters, I have fieiiled to find any trace of their present existence.
The names of the other early members of the college, that is, of those
who were not on the foundation, are extremely diflScult to recover. They
were probably not numerous, for colleges were not originally founded for this
class of students ; and, as a general rule, their names can only be recovered
when, owing to their subsequent celebrity, — as in the case of Lyndwood and
Qresham, — the details of their early life were likely to be noted. The names
of the remainder, and consequently all information which could thus be
obtained as to the number and the social status of our early students, are,
with one exception, beyond hope of recovery. This exception, however,
deserves notice. During a few years,— principally from about 1500 to 1523, —
our earliest bursars' accounts give a list of pensioners at the end of each
half-year's return. They are not numerous, and only the surnames are given.
If the reader will turn to the years in question he will find all that I have
been able to ascertain about them ; it is sufficient here to remark that they

largely consisted of monks sent hither from their respective monasteries for
the purpose of study. Of course if anything in the way of an Admission
Register of one of the more popular hostels could ever be found we should
learn much more than we are ever likely to know as to the residence and the
social position of what would now be called the '' ordinary student/' One of
these institutions, Fhyswick's Hostel, was a sort of annexe of (}onville Hall,
and from what Caius says in the Annals must have accommodated a large
number of studenta But of its occupants nothing is known, except from
the references to two or three of them which occur in the University Grace
Books, Those who only know the printed Oraduati will probably suf^pose
that information could be procured from the lists of degrees. These, unfor-
tunately for our present purpose, are of but little use. They only commence
in 1454, that is, a little earlier than the corresponding lists at Oxford : at
first they give only the surnames; and for many subsequent years the colleges,
as a rule, are not recorded. These lists have of course been consulted', — the
earliest volumes are now in process of publication by the Cambridge Anti-
quarian Society, — and it has been attempted to extract all the information
they can yield for the purpose of this work. We may sum up, with practical
accuracy, by saying that for three and a half centuries (reckoning backwards)
every name is known ; and that for the preceding two centuries we have a very
great majority of those on the foundation, and a large proportion of the
pensioners.
As regards the other part of the task, viz. the subsequent identification
of the students ; roughly speaking, about five-sixths of them have been in
some way or other accounted for. By this is meant that some clue concern-
ing their career, other than that contained in the Admission entry itself,
or in the Degree lists, has been discovered, such as may be of use to the
historian or genealogist. If the phrase 'identification' is extended so as to
include election to a scholarship, or subsequent graduation, the proportion of
fiulures will be reduced to something like one in eight or nine. Most of our
identifications are reasonably certain ; some are only probable : but I have
thought that to reject the latter would be to miss an opportunity of being
useful, so I have inserted them with an expression of doubt. At worst they
may serve as suggestions, which those who are interested in the particular
names in question may care to follow up : and in any case they will be of
service to those who undertake similar work for other colleges.
The opportunities of thus tracking the various students in after-life vary

widely in the different professions. Our information, in this respect, con-
cerning the law students is much the most complete and precise. Not only
are the admissions at the Inns of Court recorded for more than three
centuries ; but the practice of assigning the father's name, profession, and
residence, is an additional aid to identification, and a very important aid
where the surname is a common one. The Admissions to Gray's Inn have
been published by Mr Joseph Foster, who some years ago was good enough
to allow me to consult his MS. list of the admissions at the other three Inns.
The names therefore of those of our students who have entered at an Inn of
Court ought to be tolerably complete. The fact of such entry is of course
no proof that the students were eventually called to the bar, — the records of
these latter I have not been able to consult, — but it renders it highly
probable that they did not adopt any other profession. If they did not take
seriously to the law they probably, after a year or two of nominal study,
settled down as country gentlemen.
The identification of the clergy stands next in readiness and completeness.
The lists of institutions to livings given in the various County Histories are
of course &miliar to every student ; but what I have mainly resorted to is
a source of information which seems to have been generally overlooked, viz.
the lists of ordinations. Those who wait for the clerk until he obtains a
benefice can expect to secure a portion only of the class to which he belongs ;
but those who seek him at his ordination are watching at a portal by which
all must enter. There is also the further advantage that whereas presenta-
tion to a living may take place at any age, ordination was almost alwajrs
conferred within a year or two of the canonical age^ and this is frequently a
help to identification. Moreover, from a certain date, — very variable in the
different dioceses, — the degree and college are assigned in the bishops' books,
and not unfi:^uently the age and birthplace. The earliness and complete-
ness of this sort of information vary greatly ; though, broadly speaking, it
seems to me that much more care was taken in pre-Reformation days than
was shown for a century or two afterwards. In some dioceses the ordinations
are recorded in separate volumes &om an early date ; at Exeter, for instance,
from about 1570, and at London from about 1550. In other dioceses they
are found scattered about in the bishops' Registers and Act Books, and
apparently quite capriciously in some only of these. In certain dioceses
these lists appear to be almost entirely missing until comparatively recent
times. For the convenience of others who may undertake a similar search,
1 Not, however, that this age is an inferior limit. If the age given by a student on admission
to ooUege is correct it is certain that very many were ordained before they had completed
28 years, and not a few before they had completed 22. In some cases indeed the candidate for
deacon's orders conld hardly have been more than 21. See, for instance, Chr. Wragg (p. 44S).
He was admitted Ap. 26, 1678 ** adolescens 16 annorom " ; and was certainly ordained deacon
in London Feb. 24, 1677-8, and priest. May 26, 1678.
INTRODUCTION. ix
it may be remarked here that where the ordination lists are not forthcoming
their place may often be supplied by the books of ** subscriptions for orders,"
signed by the candidates a day or two before the ceremony. These again
diiSfer widely in the nature and amount of information which they furnish.
Judging by the condition to which they are sometimes found reduced, and by
the difficulty occasionally experienced in discovering them at the Registries,
one may conclude that they were long regarded, in most places, as little
better than lumber. I have consulted these and various other ecclesiastical
records — for instance the bishops' visitations — wherever possible; paying
of course especial attention to those which concern the Eastern Counties, for
it is found that in some Western dioceses {e.g. Hereford and Worcester) one
may search through a hundred years, during the 16th and I7th centuries,
without lighting upon a single entry which concerns our own, or any other
particular Cambridge college. On the whole, I should judge that the list of
those who have taken holy orders is approximately complete for the last two
centuries, and that a very large majority of those before that period have
also been determined. I must take this opportunity of expressing my
cordial gratitude to the various diocesan registrars who have so kindly
granted me £BM;ilities for search, and particularly to Dr Bensly, of Norwich,
for the many days he has allowed me to spend amongst the records under his
charge.
The ordinations have of course been supplemented by reference to the
various lists of institutions to livings. For special counties these are best
obtained from local Histories ; for their information being obtained from the
bishops' Act Books they will probably give the academical degree of the
incumbent, and whether the vacancy was caused by death or resignation.
For the remaining counties the easiest plan is to consult the Books of
Institutions and First Fruits at the Record Office : I have however also had
the advantage of seeing Mr J. Foster's MS. transcripts of these, in which the
names are alphabetically arranged.
The identification of the medical men has been a matter of somewhat
more difficulty. Munk's Roll of the College of Physicians is of course com-
plete for its purpose, but is practically confined to University graduates who
practised physic in London. The earliest general Medical Directory appears
to date from no further bcick than 1845. The lists of L.S.A.^ have been
published from 1815. Those of M.R.C.S. are printed since 1777, and can be
consulted at the Library of the College of Surgeons. These seem very
scanty sources of information compared with those of the other learned pro-
fessions mentioned above ; but practically they are much more complete than
might be supposed, for the special purpose here in view. Till quite recent

X INTRODUCTION.
times it seems to have been a very unusual thing for a University student to
practise with any other than an academic qualificatioiL This would naturally
in most cases be the M.B. or M.D. of his own University. If he went else-
where for his diploma, his choice would most likely be, in earlier times,
Padua (as was the case with Dr Caius); or in later times Leyden, of which
not a few examples will be found amongst the students of our college during
the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries. The Leyden admissions have
been published by the Index Society, and have of course been consulted for
the purpose of these volumes. As is well known, the bishops formerly had
the right of granting licences to practise medicine and surgery : in fact such
a licence was necessary (I believe) in the absence of academical qualifications.
Many such licences will be found in the various Act Books and RegiBters,
and the holders duly appear, or should do so, in the visitations of the diocese.
On these occasions they had to show their licences, just as the incumbents
and curates had to show their letters of ordination. In the Norwich diocese,
where the " Consignation Books" contain the reports of these visitations, such
licences are numerous ; but, so far as I have found. University graduates are
almost entirely absent. Several of our students who qualified as M.B. or
M.D. had fathers who thus held the bishop's licence, these being generally
described in our register by the title 'medicus'; but of the students them-
selves I have found but two or three ¥rith this qualificatioiL One of these
was the rector of a parish, who seems to have combined a little medical
practice ¥rith his clerical duties, and it is not certain that the others were
not also clergymen. For these reasons, therefore, I apprehend that the great
majority of t^hose who took to the practice of medicine will be found to have
been identified. It may be remarked, however, that the taking of the M.B.
degree is no certain index to the pursuit of a medical career, hot a few who
thus qualified afterwards taking orders : possibly the medical degree was then
an easier one than that of arts*.
Till comparatively recent times, that is, till about the end of last century,
the three learned professions above mentioned would scarcely require to
be supplemented by more than one other class, namely, that of the country
gentry. There were no ' upper class emigrants ' worth taking into account,
who had to be enquired for in the Colonies: the solicitor's profession, instead
of being, as now, almost as largely followed as that of the barrister, was quite
outside the student's prospects in life; he very seldom went into business
or into the army; nor were his parents' means often sufficient to enable
him to spend his subsequent time in the amusements, travel, or amateur
pursuits which are summed up in the words " of no profession." As regards
the country gentry I have of course consulted the &miliar sources of

information. Most of the various County Histories which deal with the
districts from which our men mainly came have been carefully consulted
by the helpers who have worked for me ; Blomefield's Norfolk, in particular,
having been sj^tematically gone through. The extreme predominance of the
two counties of Norfolk and Suffolk, whilst diminishing the general interest
of such a search, has rendered it possible to devote the necessary time and
attention to some of the MS. sources of information at the British Museum.
Amongst many which have thus been consulted, the collections of Davy and
Cole are perhaps the most important for this particular undertaking.
As these introductory remarks are intended to be of a general historic
character, it will be well to go somewhat more fully into two or three
distinct enquiries which have been incidentally suggested above: such as
the comparative social status of the students, the districts from which they
came, and the careers they subsequently pursued.
As regards the comparative social istatus of University students, a careful
appeal to statistics tends, I think, to throw much doubt upon one very
I ( prevalent assumption. It is still supposed by many persons, and used to be
confidently asserted at the time of the discussions which led to the first
Commission for University Reform, that both Cambridge and Oxford had
widely departed fix)m their original design and bom their healthier practice
in early times ; and that from being teaching places for the poor they had
been diverted into idling places for the rich. In attempting to solve this
question statistically we must limit the enquiry to post-Reformation times.
Before that period we simply have not got the requisite facts in our posses-'
sion. There are no mediaeval Matriculation Lists or Admission Registers in
existence. We know the names of but very few of the students, and can
obtain personal details about none but those who became eminent. And if
we could obtain such details it would be futile to attempt a comparison, of
the kind proposed, between times like ours, one of the prominent character-
istics of which is the existence of a very numerous and tolerably cultivated
''middle class," and times in which such a class was scarcely to be found.
All that we can certainly assert is that if there is any truth in the oflen
repeated statement as to the numbers at Oxford in mediaeval times a very
large proportion of them must have been drawn from amongst the really
poor, for other classes could not have furnished the numbers.
Prom about the commencement of Queen Elizabeth's reign these diflScul-
ties are much lightened. Our Admission Register gives some description of
the bXhev of each student ; and it shows no hesitation in calling the grocer
and the tailor by those names^ For a period therefore of more than three

centuries we are able to assign with some exactness the social status of the
studenta Of course when we endeavour to compare former times with later,
we encounter the difficulty already hinted at. In regard to certain social
classes the analogy is easy. It would be agreed that the 'esquire' or
' gentleman ' of Elizabethan days comprises the ' country gentleman ' of the
present day, but may be considered to include also the higher professional,
literary, and leisured classes of our tima The clergyman and the barrister
may be considered as standing in their former position. The yeoman and
the husbandman correspond to the &rmers of to-day. And the trading
classes offer no difficulty. Each class may have greatly advanced in respect
of wealth and culture, but that is not the question: all that we want
is to decide how a man, under any given designation, is to be fitted into
his relative place in the social fBibric of his day. The general conclusion
as regards the status of our students, to which I have been led, is that
there has been on the whole no perceptible change. No stratum of society
which used to feed the University has shown a disposition to abandon it,
and no fresh stratum in the country has been tapped. The sizar and the
fellow-commoner have indeed disappeared from the college table; but the
class which supplied the former has so advanced in wealth that the old aids
are less required, and the equalizing influences of modem society have almost
obliterated the latter. So far as statistics can be appealed to, they certainly
seem to establish the fact that the Universities have been fed frx>m the same
classes of society during the last three or four centuries ; and that if the
wealthy upper middle class preponderates now, the hct is due not to this
class supplying larger relative numbers, but to the great proportional growth
of this class itselfl
When we pass on to the geographical, rather than the social origin of
our students, we find a very different state of thinga There can be no
question as to the change here ; for whereas county extraction was once the
dominant element in determining the composition of a college, it now counts
for practically nothing whatever. As between the two Universities local
proximity was the main determining element, the Eastern Counties gravitating
to Cambridge and the Southern and Western to Oxford ; whilst the Northern
were divided between the two, with a decided preponderance towards
add that the praotioe of keeping the Register in Latin down to 1S33 is often veiy misleading,
owing to the want of distinotive terms. The word mercator, for instance, may stand now for
'meroer' or 'merchant': we can only decide by the context. If he lived in a village he
probably kept a small shop; if in Lynn or Tarmonth, and sent more than one son to oc^ege,
it is better at onoe to call him a merchant. So with the words argemkariut, amifaberi in a
small town th^ donbUess stand for silversmith or goldsmith, but the father of Charles Lloyd,
a well-known banker in Birmingham, is called argentariui in 1798. The father of Charles
Moss, bLshop of St David's, was a * grazier ' (peooarios), bat his position in life can hardly have
been such as the name suggests. His brother Bobert was dean of Ely, and Charles, who was
his nnde's heir, left a fortune of about £140,000.

Cambridge. The difficulties of travel in early times are abundantly sufficient
to account for thia Of course such a tendency was gradually intensified ;
for th6 son was naturally sent where the father had been before, and when
endowments were founded they were commonly established in the University
known to the founder, and were often confined to the district with which he
was connected.
When we come to enquire what were the causes why a youth from, say,
East Anglia, went to one college rather than another in Cambridge, we find
that the determining element was very often to be found in the restrictions
of scholarships and fellowships. In the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries
the members on the foundation were relatively far more numerous than they
are now, and they mostly had a decided inducement to go to one college
rather than another. Thus, with us, a large proportion of the scholarships
and the great majority of the fellowships — including all the senior fellow-
ships and the mastership — ^were held to be confined to Norfolk and Suffolk
men. This was quite sufficient to account for the preponderance of students
from these counties, a preponderance actually amounting at one time to nearly
seven-eighths of the college. But it deserves notice that this characteristic
was of gradual growth, and did not become excessive till the eighteenth
century. In Elizabethan times the college offered a decidedly more picturesque
aspect from this point of view than it did in the days of the earlier Georges.
We have, for instance, a very appreciable contribution from two such remote
counties as Devon and Yorkshire. Whereas, broadly speaking, the numbers
diminish with the distance, these two counties offer a marked contrast, even
after due allowance has been made for their relative population and wealth.
Thus whereas during some 120 years (1560 — 1680) Somerset ftimishes only
seven students and Wilts only five, the remoter county of Devon sends up
during the same period no less than 65 ; and this in spite of the powerful
attraction offered halfway by the presence of Exeter College, Oxford There
is no founder or benefactor to account for this preference, which seems to me
to have arisen by what may be called accident. These Devonshire students
mostly came from one district in the county, — the neighbourhood of Taw-
stock, — and I can find no other original cause than the settlement in that
district of one or two influential persons who probably recommended their
own college to others. Once let a connection be started in this way and
family influences tend to perpetuate it. In this case I apprehend that
William Bourchier, Earl of Bath, furnished the primary impulse (v. p. 81).
He sprang from Hengrave in Suffolk, but had an estate at Tawstock, where
he resided and died. His college tutor (William Hinson, also an East
Anglian) became his agent, and settled there. Twenty-eight years later the
sons of the earl and the agent came up as freshmen together; and thus,
as it seems to me, was started a connection which lasted for at least a
century.

xiv INTRODUCTION.
In the case of Yorkshire there is a more substantial reason. In the same
period of 120 years no less than 200 natives of this county entered our
college. They came from all parts of the county. Many of them would in
any case have come to Cambridge, but there was not a single scholarship
connected with any Yorkshire school to account for their selection of our
college. The explanation is rather to be sought in another direction, and is
connected ¥rith that very interesting religious episode of which I shall have
to speak more particularly presently. In the reign of Elizabeth, as is well
known, the north of England was still largely Roman Catholic; and our
college, in comparison with others at Cambridge, had a decided reputation
in this direction. Dr Caius, it is supposed, never became a Protestant ; and
his successor, Dr Legge, though not a Romanist, seems to have had strong
sympathies ¥rith the old form of faith, and introduced, as one of his principal
tutors, a man of like views with himself, Dr Swale. These two— both York-
shiremen — gave the college a distinctly marked ecclesiastical character.
We know that this very fact was made a ground of complaint by Abp.
Sandys, who wrote about this time to the Chancellor of the University,
strongly objecting to the way in which Dr Legge was misleading the young
gentry of his diocese. " All the popish gentlemen in this country send their
sons to him. He setteth sundry of them over to one Swayl, also of the
same house, by whom the youth of this country is corrupted." (Strype,
Annals, IL ii. 342.) It needs but a glance amongst the entries between
1570 — 80, and the notes which I have appended, to understand the grounds
of this complaint.
Most of those who consult such a work as this will doubtless do so in the
pursuit of private family history. But there are wider interests than this
involved, and to me certainly the main interest has been one of a general
historical kind. For many centuries each of our more ancient colleges has
been, up to a certain point, a fair reflex of English life in general. No
public event, no wave of feeling or of thought, can occur on the wider stage
without its being reproduced in miniature within our walls. Never having
been merely the seminaries of a priestly or other special professional class,
our colleges have shared in all the thoughts of the age, and have sent out
their sons to take their part in all the various activities of the day. The
amount of such participation has of course varied from period to period ; but
in the worst of times neither the theory nor the practice of Academic
institutions has suffered them to drop entirely from their ideal of being
the training places for the higher forms of culture, thought, and action.
Moreover, owing to the long prevalence of peace, there has never been any
complete stoppage of college life. Even the Plague, in its many invasions,
never entirely dispersed our students. Cambridge has never been besieged
or assaulted : and the utmost effect of the Civil Wars, in respect of academic
life, was to diminish somewhat the number of residents, and to cause a
INTRODUCTION. XV
forcible change of about half the staff of fellows. As regards earlier times,
daring the Wars of the Roses, the struggle mostly raged in distant parts of
the country ; and the University seems to have been no more affected by it
than is the farmer in Cambridge by a storm in Yorkshire.
It is an impressive illustration of the continuity and peacefiilness of our
national life that, so &r as can be ascertained, college residence and college
work have never, during century after century, been altogether interrupt^.
Indeed, until the days of railways, and the consequent facilities for escape
at holiday times, it is quite possible that no such entire interruption occurred
even for a single day. For five centuries and a half student has succeeded
student in the same rooms. Each generation has overlapped its predeces- '
sors, and has entered upon the heritage of tradition, of sentiment, — and we
may add, of slang. Piece by piece the material structure has been changed :
fresh oourts have been added; buildings have been altered, enlarged, and
improved; but, ¥rith the exception of the library, hardly one has had its
site altogether changed. If a fourteenth century student could suddenly
some day be replaced in the Gonville Court, he would know which way to
turn in order to reach the chapel, hall, kitchen, buttery, and master's lodge.
The 330 years which have elapsed since Dr Caius built the second court
have seen practically no change in its appearance, beyond the refacing of the
chapel. If he could emerge from his tomb and revisit his own oourt he
would note with satisfaction that his directions against erecting any buildings
on the south side have not been infringed; and as he looked around he
could assign to each room the occupant whom he remembered there as a
colleague or a pupiL
The detailed illustration of the continuity and variety of national life
above alluded to will be obvious to anyone who cares to skim through
the pages of this volume; but a brief outline of the more prominent
characteristics may be offered here. At the outset, and for the following
century and a half, the main function of the college appears to be that of
breeding ecclesiastics for Church and State employment. The layman and
the monk are conspicuously absent, and the ordinary parish priest, in the
form of the " poor parson," is rarely to be found. The reader will notice how
much fuller, on the average, are the notices we have been able to give of
tiiese men, than of those who follow somewhat later on. The reason is that
the college was doing just the sort of work which such foundations were
intended to do. The statutes make it plain that the object of the en-
dowments— and the admission of none but those on the foundation was
contemplated — was to secure to the poor student the leisure and other
opportunities which should fit him for the higher work of Church and State.
He was to reside here for the time requisite to study Theology, or Civil
or Canon Law, and then he was to go out into the world and make use of
his knowledge. It was never intended that he should spend his life in his

college, as the monk did in his cloister, or that he should employ his energies
in educating others or in "researching" for himself; still less was it intended
to give him a " start in life " in the modem sense of affording the young
schoolmaster or barrister a liberal addition to his income ^ He was as a rule
a resident student, and if he did not reside he received practically no stipend
at alL If we study the after career of these early students we shall see
what a large proportion of them attained to prominent positions, or were
employed in important work.
As time advanced a new class of students appeared, viz. the ' pensioners,'
corresponding to what were afterwards called fellow-commoners. They
paid for their rooms and their commons, and shared their meals with the
fellows. At first these pensioners consisted largely of monks, and in the
entries concerning them we have an illustration of an interesting phase of
monastic lifa All the greater monasteries in East Anglia, such as the
Benedictine Priory at Norwich, the magnificent foundation of Bury, and (as
a large landowner in Norfolk) the Cluniac House at Lewes, seem generally
to have had several of their younger members in training at our coUega To
these must be added the Augustinian Priory of Wbeatacre, which was mainly
frequented (as Dr Jessopp tells us) by the sons of the Norfolk gentry. The
Visitations' of th^ Norfolk Monasteries by the bishop, between 1494 and 1532,
give us a mass of information on this head. Thus at Norwich (1532) several
of the monks complain " quod scholares non exhibentur more solito in Uni-
versitate." At Wheatacre (1494) we are told that Thomas Oxburgh '' est in
studio CantabrigisB." In 1520 the number of the canons is short " quia tres
in Universitate"; and so on. Where the monastery was too poor thus to
support a student he was sometimes provided for by his Mends. Thus at
Butley, in 1514, — a small house, and at that time in debt, — we are told that
" Thomas Orford est bonus grammatista et deditus Uteris, et amici volunt
exhibere eum sumptibus suis;" which the bishop directs should be done.
In 1526 their resources had improved, and it is ordered ''quod exhibeatur
scholaris in Universitate sumptibus domus." It deserves notice that this
house of Butley had a special arrangement with Gonville Hall for the reser-
vation of a suitable room (" honesta camera ") for these young monks.
The technical name for the stipend of such students was exhibitio: a
term still in use at the University, but which has long come to be applied
1 An enquiry, twenty or thirty years ago, showed that, at one of oar coUeges, about half of
those in receipt of feUowships were either engaged as busy and well-paid schoolmasters, or were
pursuing the calling of a barrister. As Seeley once sarcastically remarked, on the theory that
the fellowship was meant to give the deserving young man a start in life, it ought to be confined
to those who had not had the advantage of a high degree and of the capacity and training which
led up to this.

to a scholarship which, fipom the shortness of its tenure or from some other
cause, is not considered to rank with the regular foundations of the college.
One object of those who underwent a University course was to qualify for
teaching the novices at their own house ; for after they have graduated and
returned to the monastery we not unfrequently find them described as
* idoneus preceptor pro confratribus," " idoneus pro noviciis et junioribus," &c.
But, beyond this, the academic degree would be for the regular churchman,
as for the secular, the natural portal for further advancement. It needs but
a glance at the subsequent careers of these monk-pensioners to recognize
how frequently they rose in after years to posts of dignity and importance.
An amusing indication of the occasional consequences of this selection
for University education is given in the Visitation of Norwich Priory in 1582,
when two of the brethren are complained of: '' scolares dedignantur ceteros
confratres: sunt inflati spiritu alti cordis, et indebitantur in Universitate."
Repetitions of this complaint show that these youths were decidedly
unpopular on their return. At the Benedictine Abbey of Hulme, in 1514,
Roger Multon is complained of: "quod est inceptor brigarum, et fuit in
Cantabrigia per septem annos, et nihil boni fecit." For the credit of their
house these selected students doubtless insisted that their dress and appoint-
ments should be quite up to the mark^ Thus Robert Bekham (see p. 21)
complains, in 1514, ''ipse deponens studiens CantabrigisB percepisset pro
uno anno viil marcas pro victu et vestitu suis, et quod recepit nisi XL*/'
Their outfit in the way of books probably also counted for something. Thus
Dr M. R. James (Camb. Ant. Soc. xxviii., p. 85) referring to Dugdale's
statement that the monks of Bury, who studied at Cambridge, went to
Qonville Hall, considers that " this helps to explain a phenomenon which
had struck me very much in my inspection of the MSS. in Caius College.
Very many of the bindings and some of the handwritings are marked by
characteristics of Bury St Edmunds... One is inclined to conjecture that the
students brought their books with them and presented them to the college."
One or two of the Bury monks can be certainly identified as residents at
Qonville Hall ; but the exemption of this Monastery from episcopal visitation
deprives us of the interesting personal details furnished by Wheatacre and
Norwich.
With the Reformation, of course, all this came to an end, and we can well
understand that this sudden stoppage of what, in the aggregate, was a con-
siderable source of supply to the University, was seriously felt. On the old
system, as we have seen, the promising students were selected by their
mcmasteries, and supported in college at the expense of the house. As the
1 Not improbably they demanded to ride when they went to coUege, as th^ oertainly did,

lepreeented at GonviHe HaU, — it is indignantly complained, in 1582, that ** confratres transennt

xviii INTRODUCTION.
author of the interesting account of Durham Priory' says, " If the master
did see that any of them (the novices) were apt to learning, and did apply
his book, and had a pregnant wit withal, then the master did let the Prior
have intelligence. Then, straightway after, he was sent to Oxford to school
and there did learn to study Divinity."
Side by side with this stream, for several years before it thus dried up,
flowed another, springing from a very different source, and which for a short
time formed the dominant current. If the reader will turn to the entries
between 1520—35, he ¥rill understand the force of bishop Nix's saying about
Gonville Hall', that no clerk came from the college but savoured of the
fiying-pan, spake he never so holily. It is true that no martyr can be found
amongst our students. We cannot rival Pembroke or Clare in the honour of
claiming a Ridley or Latimer ; so that if there was a savour of the pan there
was no scorching of the fire. But in the second rank ; of those who were
active in their support of the reformed doctrines or who suffered imprison-
ment or even torture in defence of their faith, the list of names which can
be recovered is no short one. Foremost amongst these, in point of celebrity,
was bishop Shaxton; though in later life he deserted the opinions of his
youth. John Skipp, master of the college, and Edward Crome, for many
years a fellow, belong also to the category of those who took an active part in
the early days of the Reformation. Amongst the sufferers may be mentioned
Sygar Nicholson, Simon Smith, and Pathmer. The former was for some time
University printer, and appears to have suffered both imprisonment and
torture for his opinions. The others are &irly typical instances of those
who suffered short of death for conscience' sake. Others, like Simon Ockley,
the friend of Ridley, were doubtless suspected in their day, but died before
any occasion for suffering arose.
The critical and changeful period which followed this — the days of
Edward and of Mary — is one of which we would gladly have fuller details,
but our records are too defective at this time to enable us to study the
changes as they affected the inmates of our college. But the succeeding
period, from about 1559, when our excellent Admission Register commences,
is one of great interest. Queen Elizabeth had just commenced her reign,
and the pendulum had made its final swing towards Protestantism. But the
oscillations had been so rapid and recent that almost every senior member of
the college had either had to change his opinions or to suffer for not having
changed them. Dr Caius himself is supposed to have remained a moderate

Romaoist ; but he was spared when nearly all the other masters were ejected,
probably owing to his great scientific reputation and bis splendid services to
education. One of the neighbouring masters, Dr Cosin, of St Catharine's,
anticipated his expulsion by voluntary retirement, and took refuge as a fellow-
commoner at Caius. He acted as tutor to a youth who had been already
under his charge, and whose family were doubtless of sympathetic views, —
John Dorington of Stafford. There was about this time quite a small group
of senior men who had been admitted to holy orders in former reigns and
under another r^me, who, we may conclude, had temporarily accepted a
refuge in college, under the difficulty of obtaining preferment or the uncer-
tainty as to when the next change might occur. There is no parallel to this
state of things at any other period. John Stradlyng, admitted in 1560, had
been ordained acol3rte in the days of Mary. William King, 1561, had been
archdeacon of Northumberland. Richard Hall, 1561, seems to have been
one of those who were making up their minds. He had been a fellow of
Pembroke, but resigned; shortly afterwards he definitely threw in his lot
with the Roman church. George Gardiner had been a fellow of Queens': he
sided finally with the Protestant party, and took his fill of subsequent pre-
ferment Henry Stile, 1562, had been a fellow of Trinity, and afterwards a
monk. He soon reverted to his former career, and died at a monastery in
Flanders. Henry Mann, aged 64, had been many years at Trinity. Vincent
Tuke, aged 30, had been some time at Pembroke. As he was not ordained
deacon till 1563, it looks as if he too had been waiting the turn of events.
Another significant £act at this time is the appearance of foreigners at
Cambridge. Thus in 1562 John Vulpe, of Flinfkirchen in Hungary, is
admitted fellow-commoner. In the same year Sebastian Roccatagliata, bom
and trained at Genoa, enters at the scholars' tabla Both were between 30
and 40, and both seem afterwards to have taken Anglican orders.
Another interesting characteristic of these times must be borne in mind.
In later days, as I have elsewhere said, the college became overwhelmingly
East Anglian; in the dull period, about the middle of the last century,
nearly nine out of ten of our students came fiH>m the Norwich diocese alone.
On the other hand, in the years immediately following Queen Elizabeth's
accession, that diocese can scarcely claim more than four out of ten. What
is the cause of the difference ? The influence of statutable restrictions, in the
way of scholarships and fellowships, was nearly as powerful at one period as
at the other. I cannot but think that the cause must be sought in the
intellectual tone of the time. The students of the eighteenth century acted
by routine, firequenting the college where their relatives had been, and look-
ing for the same privileges and rewards which they had obtained. But in
those days of intellectual ferment men looked far and ¥ride for sjrmpathy in
religious feeling, for companionship with an honoured teacher, for a place
where the restrictions on their opinions would be less galling. It was for this,
XX INTRODUCTION.
more than for endowment, that they were in search; and consequently it
seemed a light matter for a youth to journey from the remotest counties of
England, or from foreign countries, in order to seek admission at some par-
ticular college, or, when he had made experience of one, to migrate to another
if he found that this would better suit his needs. Hence, I apprehend, the
picturesque variety in respect of age and origin, of belief, training and pro-
fession, which characterises the brief period in question.
The next period of any marked interest occurs a few years later. It is
the last in which purely religious convictions are the dominant motive, and
marks the final protest, so for as the University is concerned, of the old faith
against the new. If the reader will glance at the entries during the fifteen
years or so, centreing about 1580, he will be struck by the remarkable pro-
portion of the students who were open or concealed Catholics from the first,
or who, as converts, joined the Romish Church during their stay in college.
This period, — what is sometimes called the Counter-Reformation, — has only
recently begun to attract the attention of the ordinary student of English
History ; and I must confess that I was startled by the fact that whereas our
college does not seem to have furnished a single martyr during the reigns
of Henry and Mary, no less than four or five of our students suffered
death for their opinions under Elizabeth and James, and at least a dozen
underwent imprisonment, or had to take refuge in flight, or to seek
concealment for a time. Doubtless this tendency prevailed throughout the
University ; though, for causes already mentioned, it was especially promi-
nent in our own college, and I have therefore taken some pains to ascertain
the fisicts and to indicate the principal references^ Of course such a state of
things could not last long. The severity of the penal laws, and the establish-
ment of purely seminarist colleges on the Continent, soon cut off this source
of supply ; and thus one of the constituent currents in our national life was,
for three centuries at least, so far as the University was concerned, diverted
from the channel in which it used to flow.
The fifty years which follow, say from 1590 to 1640, represent a period
the religious and political characteristics of which are too familiar to the
reader to allow of any general discussion here. The period during which the
politicians and the clergy of the Civil Wars and the Commonwealth were
being trained must necessarily be one of great interest. But I may, without
impertinence, direct attention to one or two points here which the general
student of history may have overlooked. In the first place, few persons have
adequately realized the commanding position which had then been attained
by our Universities'. Absolutely, — not relatively merely, — ^the number of

graduates in the years about 1625 — 30 was greater than was ever attained
again till within living memory. When allowance is made for the growth of
population it must be frankly admitted that, so for as concerns the supply of
trained men sent out into the country, the old Universities have not yet
regained the position they occupied two centuries and a half ago\
It would be ridiculous to suggest that anyone should "read" the contents
of a volume like this^ in the sense in which a continuous narrative is read.
I cannot but entertain the hope, however, that even professed historiaus who
may glance through the entries referring to the periods above mentioned
may pick up a few new facts, or at least fresh evidence for the fiEicts already
familiar to them. The design of this work has obliged me to study a number
of records in the various episcopal registries which are very seldom consulted,
and which the regular historian has hardly found it worth his while to
consult at alL And, it must be remembered, the number of cases with which
we are concerned, though dealing only with a single college, are still
sufficiently large to claim the steadiness and generality which may be called
statistical, and therefore to furnish a tolerably fair sample of what was going
on throughout the country. It is often overlooked that the enquiry is really
a statistical one, and that if we are ever to know the relative numbers of the
clergy sequestered during the Interregnum, or ejected after the Restoration,
it must be by an aggregate of enquiries of which a small sample is offered
here. We know what Walker on the one side, and Calamy on the other,
state and imply, but what are the actual £9icts ? and, equally important, what
are the relative numbers of a third class, viz. of those clergy who submitted
to the successive changes, and retained their livings undisturbed throughout ?
Again; as regards those who obtained episcopal ordination during the
period when episcopacy was abolished, it has always been known that there
^ Nor is the force of these considerations diminished when we examine the afker-oareer of
these students. Take for instance the ease of the clergy: what number of graduate clergy ^id
the Universities then furnish for the Church? The question is too intricate to be worked out
in a note, but the main foots can readily be given. At the period in question, say from 1617
to 1637, the average number of those who proceeded to the BA. degree at Cambridge was 266.
To ascertain what proportion of these took orders I examined two successive batches, of
100 each, from our college. In the first case I found that 61 almost certainly did take orders,
and 7 almost certainly did not ; 82 being left unknown. In the second case the corresponding
numbers were 69, 11, and 20. Now how are the unknown to be divided? Statisticians would
naturally say, * In the same ratio as the known,' and would therefore reckon the per-centage
of the ordained as respectively 90 and S6. But, in order to be within the mark, we will assume
that only half of the unknown became clergymen. The percentages then become 77 and 79;
giving an average of 7S. That is, we may safely suppose that 7S per cent, of our graduates then
took orders. There is no reason to suppose that our college was exceptionally theological ; on
tiie contrary, it was probably less so than some others. Presumably therefore Cambridge then
supplied an annual contingent of about 207 graduate clergy. It now supplies (taking an average
of the last 20 years) about 230. And yet the population is supposed to have multiplied fowfold.
On the same data it will be found that the actual numbers at Oxford have only risen fnm
172 to 219.

were some of these ; but has it been sufficiently realized how numerous they
were, or what proportion of them obtained their orders before or after insti-
tution to a living by the Parliamentary Committee^ ?
The picturesque and dramatic interest of this period is of course
unmatched by anything which other times can show. We glance through
the names of the youths who came up together as freshmen, to worship
together in the same chapel and to dine together in the same halL We
turn to examine their careers, and find them drifting widely apart, until
in a few years one of them, as a "godly and orthodox divine," displaces
his old comrade who has now become a '* malignant " ; or, perhaps, as
a bishop or official of the Restoration ejects his contemporary from
his living. Readers of Woodstock will remember how the two divines,
Dr Rochecliffe and Nehemiah Holdenough, meet each other in the guard-
room, as prisoners under sentence of death; and how, on their sudden
recognition of each other, the memory of their youthful pranks breaks
through the stem realities of their then position. " Dost thou remember
Dr Purefoy and Caius College ? " " Marry do I," said the Doctor, thrusting
his arm through the Presbjrterian divine's, and guiding him to a seat
apart from the other prisoners, who witnessed this scene with much
surprise. " Remember Caius College ? Ay, and the good ale we drank, and
our parties to Mother Huffcap'a" " Vanity of vanities," said Holdenough,
smiling kindly at the same time, and still holding his recovered friend's
arm enclosed and handlocked in his. " But the breaking of the Principals
orchard so cleanly done," said the Doctor, "it was the first plot I ever
framed, and much work I had to prevail on thee to go into it." "Oh,
name not that iniquity," said Nehemiah..." (Chap, xxxvi).
Meetings of this kind must have been frequent enough, considering
how freely the vicissitudes of after-life arranged old comrades upon
opposite sidea Thus L. Playters, rector of Uggeshall and Sotterley, was
sequestered in 1644, and his place was soon taken by his old college
contemporary, H. Younger: — as Holdenough had succeeded Rochecliffe,
Edmund Hickhomgill and William Dell were chaplains in the Parliamentary
army, and Thomas Qunter to General Monk, whilst William Watts was
1 From a study of the Norwich ComignatUm Book of 1662, 1 am inclined to think that there
was no period, through the Interregnum, when those who were resolved to obtain Episcopal
orders could not readily do so. Joseph Hall, at Heigham, close by Norwich, continued to oidain
unintermptedly tiU his death in 1666: and the names of the bishop of Exeter (Kalph Brownrigg)
of Kilmore (Thos. Sydserf), of Ardfert (Thos. Fulwar) and others, repeatedly occur. Nor was
such ordination any hindrance to institution or admission by the Parliamentary Committee •
as the reader wiU see abundantly exemplified. '
« This reference to Caius,— perhaps the only mention of any Cambridge college in aU Soott's
writings,— is curious, and possibly not made at random. Dr Purefoy and Mother Huffcap are of
course inventions, but, as many of my readers are aware, there it a " president's garden " in the

long a chaplain to Prince Rupert. Thomas Bedingfield and Edmund Reeve
had not improbably known each other in college, for they were both,
within a short period, "pensioners at the bachelors' table." They both
became judges. Reeve sided with the Parliament; Bedingfield, "upon the
murder of King Charles, laid down his place and all public employments,
and retired into private life." Sometimes the subsequent meeting was of
a more friendly kind, as when the former pupil (v. Punter, p. 302) affords
a refuge to his old tutor on his expulsion, and is reported to the Parlia-
mentary Committee as "harbouring malignant priests."
With the Restoration the gate of admission was still further narrowed ;
and, as the Romanist had been excluded some eighty years earlier, so the
Puritan was excluded now. For nearly two centuries, from this date, I
can discover only one avowed Nonconformist who issued fix)m our college,
and not a single Romanist.
The only subsequent episode which can in any way be compared with
the foregoing is the change of allegiance which called forth the self-
sacrifice of the Non-jurors. The crisis was by comparison slight, but
relatively speaking our college was considerably affected. Unlike St John's,
indeed, — where about half the body of fellows were ejected, — only one
member of our foundation was even for a time inclined to hold out ; but
not a few former members suffered for their convictions. One of these,
Jeremy Collier, was a prominent leader of the party ; and some half-dozen
others seem to have shared in his convictions and temporarily or per-
manently to have seceded from the Anglican communion.
And now a period of slow but steady decline set in; one which
affected not Caius College only, nor Cambridge only, but University life
in England generally. For more than half a century the numbers, as
estimated by the aggregate of degrees conferred, gradually dwindled,
without a trace of any effort at recovery. Anyone who, in 1760,
endeavoured to infer the future from observation of the past might well
have come to the conclusion that in another century Cambridge and
Oxford would be nearly extinct. And this decline seems to me to have
affected the quality as well as the quantity of our students. Great names
occur still, of course ; and men in high place, especially in the Church, are
bound to occur, for they are taken from those of academic training. The
deficiency is mainly found amongst men of another rank ; amongst those
who did not come to college from mere routine, or as part of a necessary
preparation for a professional career. It is the miscellaneous class, in-
cluding the cultivated, the eccentric, the adventurous, the enthusiastic,
whose absence represents so great a loss to the biographer and annalist.
At Caius this uniformity is aggravated by a characteristic already alluded
to. The college, in fact, enters upon a stage which must seem to any
one who does not himself spring from either of the two principal
XXIV INTRODUCTION.
Eastern counties, one of dull monotony. Of seven-eighths of our students
we can day little more than that of Norfolk and Suffolk they are, and
unto Norfolk and Suffolk they return. They are the sons of the country
gentry, clergy and yeomen of those counties, and of the tradesmen of
the county towns. They have all been trained at Norwich, Ipswich,
Bury, and the other schools of the district ; and they almost all return
to their own county, sometimes as squires, but far more often as clergy-
men. The eighteenth century has been often found fault with for its
lack of enthusiasm, and all else which this implies or suggests. As
regards England in general this charge, like most of such sweeping
generalizations, probably needs much qualification, but as regards the
University, so &r as definite statistics can be appealed to, it seems to
need very little qualification indeed. We do not find that the student
of this period disappears after a year or two, migrates to Douay or to
Rome, and reappears a little later, at much hazard of his neck, as a
seminarist priest. He does not settle down into a country living under
one ecclesiastical order, to suffer ejection a few years later under another.
Even the Non-juror episode, relatively small as it was compared ¥rith
the preceding religious crises, has no counterpart in the next century.
The nearest approach to any disturbance arising out of religious con-
victions is to be found in a little splutter of Deism which agitated
the authorities in 1734. But so far as our college is concerned, nothing
more came of this than the expulsion of one not very respectable junior
fellow (T. Ducket), much against his own will, and in spite of his
assurance that he had repented of his evil thoughts and sayings; whilst
one of his comrades, "a hero of the truth," soon settled down into a
country living. The Georgian student does not interest his annalist by
emigration, by adventurous travel, by entering into Court service, by
killing others in duels, or getting killed himself, by risking his life in
war. He had his merits, unquestionably, and they must not be over-
looked. He dressed for dinner, and an early dinner too ; powdering his
hair, and donning pumps and silk stockings; but we cannot feel any
keen interest in his career. If destined for the Church, as he generally
is, he plods through his three years here, graduates, is ordained by the
bishop of Norwich, — ^probably in London, to save his lordship trouble, —
and spends the rest of his life in accumulating preferment in his native
county. The average number of livings held by him at his death is
nearer three than two. As I have already hinted, it must not be sup-
posed that these remarks have any wider reference than that which
strictly concerns us here. Our countrymen were engaged in plenty of
exciting and adventurous work in other parts of the world; only those
who carried it on had not begun life by admission at college. For
instance, so far as our students are concerned, during some fifty years
INTRODUCTION. XXV
in the middle of the century, one would hardly suspect the existence
of either India or Canada; and, except for an occasional sermon or
pamphlet directed against the holders of such errors, one would scarcely
gather that there were any other recognized forms of faith than the
AngUcan.
In the latter part of the century, say about 1780, things began to
improve ; and I think we can recognize a greater variety of career, and a
higher standard of enterprise, ability, and learning. So &r as this exists
it must be attributed to national rather than to academic causes, for neither
the masters nor the tutors seem to have possessed any appreciable intellectual
influence ; and even the religious revival, distinctly associated as it was with
Cambridge, through the name and influence of Simeon, did not, I believe, find
a single resident representative within our walls.
The tendency towards variety of career thus indicated, has in certain
respects displayed itself much more strongly of lata Whether there is the
enthusiasm and fsuth and readiness for sacrifice of former days it is no
business of an annalist to judge, but there is at any rate the old picturesque-
ness and variety of career. The '' professions," instead of accounting for
nearly all besides the country gentry, now account for barely one quarter. The
others have to be sought in business at home or in the colonies ; in the army ;
as travellers or settlers in foreign countries ; as lay schoolmasters or professors
at provincial colleges ; as writers for the press or professional literary men ;
and as "of no profession," but living on inherited incomea Hence the
somewhat paradoxical result that it is distinctly more difficult to gdye an
account of the careers of a batch of, say, 100 students who entered the college
thirty years ago, than of a similar batch who entered a century earlier.
With two exceptions, one of these being but slight and temporary,
I know of no special characteristics which have distinguished the college
in later times. During the tutorship of Charles Clayton, 1860 — 63, we
certainly acquired the reputation of being "the evangelical college"; and
the blue velvet on the gown became conspicuous at certain churches, and at
religious meetings. But this was due entirely to the personal influence
of the tutor, and did not last long. The medical reputation of the college
is of course a much more permanent characteristic, and of late years has
shown a strong tendency to increase. It dates from far back, for Fuller spoke
of the college as having been, even before his time, " a little Montpellier."
It rests largely on tradition, for the direct encouragement to the medical
student was till lately of the slightest possible description. I shall discuss
this more fully under the head of Endowments and Lectureships, and need
only remark here that ¥rith the exception of the senior fellowship assigned
to Medicine by Bateman and by Caius, — which can have had little or no
influence on young students, — no endowment whatever was assigned to
medicine till some small scholarships were thus set apart in 1839, and no
XXVI INTRODUCTION.
special instruction was given to the medical students till about the same
period. The proportion of such students is now large, and special attention
is paid to their requirements.
It would clearly have been desirable that the Annals of a college, so
closely connected with Norfolk, should have been undertaken by some native
of that county who was well versed in its family and local history. But the
ideal editor, after long waiting for him, has not made his appearance ; and
one less suitably equipped for the task has therefore done his best to take
the place. I am of course in a general way responsible for the accuracy
of the whole work ; and, as a matter of fact, nearly all the research required
amongst our college records, at the British Museum, and at the various
diocesan registries, has been performed by me. But much investigation has
had to be carried on at the University Library, for which I am largely
indebted to Mr E. Heawood, and the Rev. F. W. Q. Sidebotham, both of the
college, and to Mrs F. Rye. Much has also been done for me by Mr F. Johnson,
of Yarmouth, who has not only carefully revised the greater part of the
work in MS., and corrected, and added to, the biographical notes from many
local sources ; but has also supplied nearly all the information derived from
the wills at Norwich. I must also thank my friend Dr H. J. Hunter, of
Bath, for revising the proofs. His wide knowledge of antiquity, and his
hereditary accuracy, have been of much service to me. I also owe a debt
of gratitude to Mr J. W. Clark, University registrary, for his never failing
courtesy and help. As regards the many others who have helped me,
principally in respect of individual information, I have endeavoured to make
due acknowledgement by giving the initials of my informants' names. These
will be explained, together with other abbreviations, in the Index.
One word in conclusion to the reader. As most of those who are likely
to consult such a work as this will be in a position to make additions or
corrections, they are particularly requested to communicate these at once, so
that they may be inserted in the third volume.

GONVILLB AND CaIUS CoLLEGE,
May, 1897.
BIOaEAPHICAL HISTOKY
OF
GONVILLE AND CAIUS COLLEGE:
1349-1895.
donville, Edmund. There has been a curiously persistent error as to the parentage
of our first founder, only cleared up by the researches of the late Dr Bennet
{Hist of Ruahtoorth Cdlege; 1887). He was not the son of Nicholas, as
often stated, but of William de Gonville, an alien, who acquired the
manor of Lerling, Norf., about 1295; and who is described in a deed as
" natus de potestate reg Franciae, commorans in Anglia." Edmund was the
second son. He was rector of Thelnetham 1320 : rector of Rushworth 1326 :
Rector of Terrington St John, Norf., 1342. Steward to Lord Warren and
the Earl of Lancaster. Conmiissioner of the marshlands of Norfolk. Founder
of Rushworth College, 1342. Founder of Gonville Hall, 1349: his deed of
foundation is dated June 4, 1349. Died in the year 1351. For some account
of his statutes, and general design, see the Introduction, (D. N. B.)
Ufford, John. Fuller {Hist, of Comb, p. 109) states that John Ufford, Chancellor,
and nominated as Archbishop of Canterbury, was a pensioner in Gronville
Hall in its very earliest days. This however is impossible, for he died in May
1349, some weeks before the foundation of the college. The man in question
must be John UflTord, son of Robert, Earl of Suffolk; rector of Hingham,
Norf., and preb. of Salisbury and Lincoln. Archdeacon of Suffolk, 1366-8.
His will, dated Aug. 10, 1375, at Cambridge, and proved Dec. 5, 1375, is
printed in full in W. Rye's I^arf Miscellany, i. 376. This date will agree
with the statement in an early note in our MS. No. 714 that he was the
donor of one of the windows in the college chapel. He gave legacies to
Richard Pulham and William Elmham.
1353-4. A deed of gift by Bp Bateman, to the coU^e, of the manor of Triplow,
Cambs. (Feb. 27, 1353-4) mentions the "custos et socii" as follows. The
fellows had presumably been appointed by Bateman in 1351.
*John of Tyrington: master: chaplain to Bp Bateman.
♦William Rougham, M.D.
•John of Tyrington.
♦William of Lee.
♦Richard of Pulham.
- '''
2 OONVILLE AND CAIUa
*John of TTrington, the maater ; better known as John Colton. Appointed maater
by Gonville in the deed of foundation, June 4, 1349, and retained this post
till 1360. He is said to have been introduced to Gonville by Bp Bateman,
whose chaplain he was. Graduated D. Can. Law, 1348. Rector of Terrington,
1350. Prebendary of Bugthorpe, Torks., 1377. He was already in Ireland
in 1372, when he raised 26 knights at his own expense, and def^ted a body
of plunderers who had burnt the priory of Athy in Kildare. Dean of St
Patrick's, 1374. Chancellor of Ireland for a year or so about 1380. Arch-
bishop of Armagh, 1381-1404. Died April 27, 1404: buried at St Peter's,
Drogheda. The record of his connection with our collie is an entire blank.
His name occurs as 'custos' in two or three eariy deeds and charters, but
there is no evidence how long, if at all, he resided. He was the author of
Provincial ConstittUions : aUo said to have written two treatises against the
Papal Schism. His Visitation of the diocese of Derry in 1397 was edited by
Dr Reeves in 1850. (D. N. B.)
^Rougham, William. A doctor of medicine. Succeeded as master, 1360 to 1393.
He finished the college chapel, and the rest of the buildings on the north side
of the court, at his own expense (AnncUs). There was formerly an inscription
on one of the chapel windows (the first on the left). Orate pro cmima Willm* de
Rougha-m qui fecit istam capelknn fieri : and a similar inscription on the E.
window : aJl relics of this kind have of course long disappeared.
♦John of Tyrington, the fellow, was rector of Osmundeston (Scole), Norf., 1354-61.
He was apparently the first donor to the college library, to which he gave two
MSS., which we still have ; viz. a volume of Peter Lombard (No, 279), and
one of Scotus (No. 300), "in perpetuum mansurum in Aula de Gunvile ad
usum magistri et scholarium." He was the representative of the college in
the letter of attorney assigning the advowsons of Foulden and Wilton, 1354.
♦Pulham, Richard. Master of the college, 1393 to 1412. He also added two MSS.
to the library, viz. of Aristotle (Nos. 458 and 509). He was ordained deacon,
on the title of the college, by the Bp of Ely, May 27, 1374. A legatee under
John Uffbrd's will, 1375.
^Elvedon, Walter : probably a fellow. Rector of Icklingham St James till 1347.
Rector of Elveden, on the presentation of the Abbot of Bury, 1347. Rector
of Snetterton, 1352-9. Rector of Shropham, 1358-60. Archdeacon of
Sudbury, 1349. Precentor of Hereford till 1358. Vicar general to Bp
Bateman, 1351-5. Died about 1360. An obit was established in his memory,
" infra quindenum proximum post Idus Junii " (Sherifie's Register), presumably
in return for the Calendarium, and gift of MSS. Leland says {Comment, de
Script. BriL) ^'Extat ejus Calendarium cum tribus cyclis decemnonalibus et
argute et significanter compactum." Bale and Pits simply repeat this state-
ment; but according to Tanner (Bibl, Brit,) there is a note in Bale's MS.,
Srobably by Brian Twyne, *' calendarium ejus vidi, factum a.d. 1327." A
IS. in the Bodleian {Latid. 662) by Nicholas de Leuca, claims to be a con-
tinuation of Elvedon's calendar, extending from 1387 to 1463. The CcUen-
danrium was for centuries carefully preserved in our Treasury, but all trace of
it seems now to have disappeared : unless it be identified with an Astrolabe,
found in our library with a few early records moved thither from the treasury
in 1876, and which Mr Knobel (of the R. A S.) has shown to be of '^ the early
part of the fourteenth century." If this be not so, it is highly probable, from
the date, that this astrolabe came to us from Elvedon. Our MS. No. 242,
Speculum judiciale, contains a ** tabula copiosissima " composed by him. He
gave us five MSS. ; the Breviarium Johannisfilii Serapionis ; two volumes of
medical tracts; extracts from Cyprian, Ambrose, &c; and the Organon of
1353—1392. 3
Aristotla He was also a benefactor to Trin. HalL Hh name is joined with
that of the master in a deed of 1353 ; and in others about the same time; and
he was the representative of Lewes monastery in the letter of attorney
assigning the rectory of Hockwold to the college in 1354; where he is
described as Dr of Laws.
Wate (VateusX John. Assigned by Pits and Leland (Comment, de Script, Brit.)
to Gk>nyille Hall. A contemporary and associate of Elvedon. Author of
TabtUcB in ceqitationes domorum. Tanner (Bibl, Brit,) seems to identify this
with a MS. in the Bodleian {Digh, 97); Ccmones et tdbvlce cequatianea
planetarum cid merid, Oxan.
•Somersham, William, Fellow in 1376 when he was ordained on that title; deacon
(Ely) Sep. 20, and priest (Ely) Dec. 20, 1376. Vicar of Wilton, Norf., 1386-
93; his resignation of this, dated in the college chapel, Dec. 12, is copied in
Sheriffe's Register, It is suggested by W. Adamson in the Reg, Mag,^ p. 85,
that Somersham accepted and afterwards resigned this living in order to
facilitate its new appropriation to the college by bull of Boniface IX. Rector
of Hevingham, Norf., 1393-1416. D.D. 1412. Master of the college, 1412-6.
Will dated Oct. 6, proved (P. C. 0.) Oct. 27, 1416. There has been a curious
mistake about the date of his death, and consequently about that of Rickin-
gale's accession as master. He was supposed to be mentioned as custos, in a
deed as late as Nov. 1423, the date assigned in the Cwmh, Calendar and else-
where, and probably originating in the ArvnaU of Dr Caius. The mistake
seems to have arisen from assuming that the "3d of Henry," in the deed,
refers to Henry VI. and not to Henry V. The evidence of the probate of his
will is of course conclusive. He desires to be buried in the chapel of the
collie. He leaves to the collie ''unam murram cum cooptorio et unam
tabulam argenteam ennameld, et unum pouder box de argento." To his
successor as master, "unam zonam argenteam deauratam." To each fellow
6* S*', and "unum cochlear argenteum.'' There are gifts to the poor of
Hevingham, and a capuciv/m to the parsons of Mattishall, Foulden, and
Mutf ord. Henry Foulden and Peter Neylond executors.
*Elmham, William: a fellow. Ordained acolyte, as fellow, by the Bp of Ely,
March 29, 1376. A legatee under John UflTord's will, 1375.
•Tunstall, Robert: a fellow. Ordained acolyte, as fellow, by the Bp of Ely,
March 9, 1380-1 : deacon, Sep. 21, 1381. Rector of Gt Dunmow, Ess., 1406
-19. Will dated May 12, 1419; proved (P. C. 0.) Jan. 11, 1419-20. He
seems to have acted as Somersham's 'notary' in his resignation of Wilton
(v. above), where he is described as < Robert of Brandon, LL.B., and rector of
Dunmow.'
^Osborne, John : a fellow. Ordained acolyte, as fellow, by the Bp of Ely, at
Downham, May 16, 1383; sulxleacon, Ap. 7, 1386; deacon, at Ely, Ap. 6,
1387. The wiU of one of these names was proved (P. C. C.) July 18, 1426.
He was rector of St Ewe, Cornwall, and prebendary of Ashill, B. and Wells.
Naylond, Simon, LL.D. Seems to have held the office of a chaplain in the
ooUege. Licensed by the Bp of Ely, Dec. 24, 1392, to celebrate and hear
worship in the " College of the Annunciation," for two years. Warden of
King's Hall, about 1378-84. Ordained acolyte (Ely) March 5, 1383-4;
sul>deacon, March 26, 1384; deacon, Sep. 6, 1384; priest, Feb. 1384-5.
Rector of Ebworth, Cambs. In 1389 he had license of three years' non-
residence. In 1394 he was appointed "confessor" with license of two years'
absence. In June 1401 he exchanged livings with Henry Granelry, rector of
St Mich. Queenhithe, London (J. H. C).
1—2
4 GONVILLE AND CAIUS.
^Derham, Richard. By a deed dated Dec. 12, 1393, it appears that he was at
that time fellow of the college. Warden of King's Hall, Cambridge, about
1401-13. Chancellor, 1389, 90, 99, 1402-8. Probably King's chaplain in
1402, when he was empowered, with others, to conclude a marriage between
the Prince of Wales and the sister of the King of Denmark. Was D.D.
in 1412 when the Pope addresses the Prince of Wales, desiring credence
for him (Co/, of Rymer*8 Feed.), Archdeacon of Norf., 1412-7. Dean of
the college of St Martin le Grand, London, 1409-16. Probably died 1417.
♦Kenynghale, Roger : fellow. Acted as attorney for the college in 1393, on the
resignation of Dr Somersham (Deed), He is styled '^socius et scholaris.''
♦Northgate, John : fellow. Ordained acolyte (Ely) on that title Ap. 7, 1397 ;
subdeacon, March 23, 1397-8; deacon, June 1, 1398. Rector of Ingworth,
1408-10: vicar of Roudham, 1410-3: vicar of Dilham, 1426-9 (all in
Norf.).
♦Osborne, Henry: fellow. Ordained acolyte (Ely) Ap. 7; sub-deaoon, June 16,
1397. On the first page of our MS. 82 (Polychronicon of R. Higden) is a
note "Oaucio M'* Henrici Osborne expos, ciste Lyng....l408": ie. it was
one of those pledges to the University authorities for payment of fees or
perfonnance of exercises, of which there are so many entries in the early
Grace books. It was also pledged in 1400. A legatee under the will of
the master, Somersham.
Foulden, Henry. Not improbably a member of the college, as he is named as a
legatee, together with H. Osborne, in the will of Wm. Somersham, 1416 ;
and is appointed one of the executors.
♦Atwood (Wode), Thomaa Fellow in 1399, when he was ordained; acoljrte (Ely),
Sep. 20, 1399: sub-deacon, Dec. 20, 1399: deacon, March 13, 1399-1400.
He was master of the college, 1426 to 1454. Instituted to Lopham, Norf.,
Sep. 17, 1446. Chaplain to the Duke of Norfolk. Vicar of Mutford,
1452-6. Rector of Elsworth, Cambs., at the time of his death. Will dated
there, March 7, 1455-6; proved (P.C.C.) 1456. Desires to be buried in
Elsworth, with the inscription, "Orate pro animabus Mri Thomse Atwoode,
et Agnetse matris suae." Leaves small legacies to Elsworth, Boxworth,
Lolworth, and Overstrand Churches. A book to John Hill (De Lira super
Novum Testamentum). Legacies to St Michael's, Cambridge, to Mutford,
to the four mendicant orders in Cambridge, and to St Rhadegunde's nunnery.
During his mastership he contributed to the college buildings, viz. to the
hall and the library, on the west side of the college. For this gift an obit
was established in his memory, "in crastino Purificationis beatse Virginis"
(Sheriffe's Eegiater).
Aylward, Thomas, a native of Hants. : probably of the college. Dean of Bocking,
1392-1413. Rector of Havant, Hants. Named as executor in Bp Wyke-
ham's will, July 4, 1403. Benefactor: he gave £20, of which £10 was to
be kept in an iron chest and lent out to the students and fellows. His
exequies were celebrated on St Etheldred's day. The chest was remaining
in the time of Caius, but the money, owing to the negligence of the masters
in not reclaiming the debts, had disappeared; though Dr Caius states that
he had himself recovered certain sums. In 1493 the capital had been
replaced by Lady Eliz. Clere. The gift must have been made during Aylward's
life-time: there is no reference to it in his will, dated Oct. 7, 1413;
proved at P. C. C.
♦Creuch (Crowch, Croucher), John: a fellow. Ordained by the Bp of Ely:
acolyte, Sep. 24, 1407 : sub-deaoon, March 31, 1408: deacon, June 9, 1408:
1393—1423. 5
priest, Dec. 22, 1408. He was one of the earliest donors to the University
Library : " The gem of our original (University) library is a copy of Chaucer's
translation of his favourite Boethius...it well deserves to be looked upon as
the patriarch of the place, and the donor, Mr John Croucher, to have a place
in our recollection as the founder of our English library " (Bradshaw). He
also gave a glass window to the college hall. He was rector of FeltweU, Norf.,
1430: rector of Babingley, Norf., 1430-5: rector of W. Bilney, Norf.,
1430-5. Dean of Chichester, 1426 : died before 1460.
^Fenge, John. Probably a fellow sometime between this date and the death of
Robert Heylys in 1497. The latter leaves a book to the library in memory
of himself and his friends Thomas Atwood and John Fenge.
♦Harlston, Thomas : a fellow. Ordained by the Bp of Ely : acolyte, Dec. 21, 1420 :
deacon, March 8, 1420-1 : priest. May 17, 1421. Vicar of Foulden, Norf.,
1421-8, when he resigned. Vicar of Narburgh, Norf., 1428-31. Rector
of Frainingham Pigott, 1431-4.
♦Thomson (Thomston), John. Vicar of Leeds, Yorks., to 1430. Probably a
member of the college, as he bequeaths "omnes libros meos non legates" to
Gonville Hall. Will proved at York, Aug. 31, 1430: given in Misc, Gen,
Vol II. Our MS. no. 104 (Theological Tracts) has the notice, " Liber Joh.
Thomston, vicarii de Ledes." Perhaps rector of Ingworth, Norf., to 1416.
The above few names are all that can be recovered from deeds, ordination
records, and similar sources, during the first seventy years. The possible
additions however to the list would not amount to much, as the residents
were probably confined almost entirely to those on the foundation, viz. to the
master and four fellows. What we now call scholars did not exist till long
afterwards, and there were few or no pensioners. With the commencement
of our regular college records we begin to get somewhat fuller information,
though for many years only surnames are furnished. The earliest extant
equivalent to a bursar's book commences with the CampiUtu of Lady Day,
1423 : it contains the following list of those on the foundation : —
Gustos.
Crome.
Thomston.
Whisham.
Cotman.
Salmon.
The custos is John Rickinghale, D.D., master from 1416 to 1426, when he
resigned, "in crastino transktionis S" Benedicti," i.e. July 12. Ordained
acolyte (Ely) in 1376, when he is described as of Little Shelford, Cambs.
Rector of Thorpe Abbots, Norf., 1381-99. Vicar of the Mediety of Fressing-
field, Suff., 1399-1421. Archdeacon of Northumberland. Chancellor of
York, 1400. Dean of St Mary's College, Norwich, 1405-26. Chancellor of
the University, 1415-22. Bishop of Chichester, 1425-9: where he was
buried, in the N. aisle. Consecrated bishop at Mortlake Church, June 3,
1426. Said to have obtained the office through the interest of John, Duke
of Bedford, to whom he was confessor. " In public affairs he seems to have
taken no part, nor are any of his episcopal acts recorded." (Stephens : Mem,
of Chichester,) Will dated Ap. 2 : proved (Lambeth) July 14, 1429. (For
more see under If asters,)

^Crome, Walter: fellow: first appearance (deed) Dec. 12, 1420: remains on the
list till Christmas 1427 ; but is absent in the next entry, at Mich* 1429.
Received the minor orders from the Bp of Norwich, Dec. 23, 1412 ; and priest's
orders soon afterwards, on the ^ title of the House of St Faith, Horsham,
when he is described as a native of Norwich. Vicar of St Peter's, Colchester,
1427-33. Vicar of Broomfield, Ess., 1433-7. Rector of St Benet, Sherehog,
London, 1442-52. He was a large donor to the University Library, to which
he left 93 volumes; having previously given books in 1442 and 1444, still in
the collection. He also left seven volumes to our college library, six of
which are still there, amongst these being a celebrated MS. of the Epistles
of Ignatius. The books were to be kept bound with chains, "cum catenis
ferreis, more aliorum librorum eiisdem librariis...ligabuntur." There is a
note by him in one of these that it was not to be taken out, " sed remaneat
in libraria non solum ad sociorum sed aliorum fide dignorum ingressum et
solamen." Will proved (Bp of London's Court) Aug. 5, 1452.
♦Thomston (Thomson). Doubtless John, mentioned above.
♦Whisham, Guy. B.D. Ordained priest (Norw.) March 20, 1421-2, on his title
as a fellow, "a suo diocesano sufficienter dimissus." Fellow till Mich* 1423.
Doubtless the man referred to in the "Letter from the Duke of Exeter
(Thomas Beaufort) to the University, recommending his clerk, Guy Wiseham,
for the degree of B.D., earlier than usual, before going to liie General
Council," — i.e. of Constance. Dated Jan. 10, 1415-6. {Univ, Registry, Vol. i.
86 : printed in Comb, Ant. Soc, IIL 273.)
*Cotman remains on the list of fellows till Lady Day 1426. He resigned in June
or July.
^Salmon, Robert. Ordained acolyte (Ely) June 7, 1422. Remains on the list of
fellows till Mich* 1433.
♦Gydon, Appears as fellow from Mich* 1423 to Mids' 1425.

Totil.
Cobald.
Beverley.
Wame/
Hill.
Clint.
♦Totil, Henry. Ordained priest, on his title as fellow (Norw.), July 18, 1427.
Remains fellow till Mich* 1434. There is an entry in our old Computus of
1440, of a payment of 40 shillings "pro libris M** Henrici Totchyld": perhaps
the college bought them.
♦Cobald (Cabold), Edmund : fellow tiU Midsummer 1434.
♦Beverley, John. D.D. Fellow till Lady Day 1441. Perhaps B. Can. Law, 1459.
Preb. of Lincoln Cathedral. He gave books to the college library which were
reckoned at about £40 value. There is a deed in the Treasury (dated Oct. 2,
1463) by which the college undertakes, in return, to establish an obit or
anniversary in his memory, on the vigil of St Gregory. If at any time this

should be neglected the chancellor was to be at liberty to claim the books for
the University Library. The volumes, 15 in number, are carefuUy named and
described. We still have 14 of them, viz. 12 conmientaries on Scripture by
Hugh of Yienne, Grorham on St Paul, and the Reductoriwm, morale. In place
of the missing one (John of Lathbury on Uie Lamentations) is a work by
Albertus Magnus.

four altars there ; a legacy to the abbot of Walden, and to Bluntisham church.
♦Spark, Geo£frey: fellow, Mids' 1426 till Christmas 1427.
Botlesham (or Bottisham), Nicholas. Probably at one time a member of the college,
as his name is mentioned in an early note (MS. No. 714) as being inscribed, as
donor, on a window in our old chapel (the second to the left). The only man
of this name whom I can find was prior of the House of Carmelites in Cam-

in the chancel thera Benefactor to the college library : his name, and a few
notes, are recorded in MS. 330. He gave one of the librai^ windows. His will,
proved at Norwich Ap. 2, 1472, is curious. As to his body, "corpus putri-
dum^ quia onus est, et in cineres convertibile, terre feculente vermibus esca
fiat"; to be buried where his executors will. Leaves small legacies to the
prior, and to each monk, of the Charterhouse, and of Sion. To Gunvyle Hall,

one time a member of the college. He gave two windows to the library, the
second and third on the W. side. Bp Wren states (MS. in Pemb. ColL) that
there was an inscription, in a window in the library of Gronville Hall, to pray
for the soul of Bp Lyndwood, " hujus coUegii quondam commensalis." He was
at one time fellow of Pembroke HalL Ordained acolyte (Ely) Feb. 17, sub-

Powle, Richard. Probably a member of the college, as he was vicar of Foulden,
1443-79, and a benefactor. In his will, dated March 27, proved (Norwich)
May 26, 1479, he desires to be buried in the new porch on the N. side of the

souls of all brothers or fellows of the said college deceased " : if this was not
fulfilled the lands were to be sold and disposed of in prayers for his own soul.
Henry Costessey, the master, appointed supervisor. Dr Caius, in the Anndlsy
by an apparent oversight calls him vicar of Mutford.
♦Calton, Robert : appears as fellow from Mids' 1449 to Christmas 1466 : but not in
1472. Ordained priest (Norw.) on the title of the college June 19, 1451. He
receives a pajrment of £1 in each of the years 1461-4, for presiding in the

legacies for the lepers, Ac.
♦Clement. Appears as fellow Mids' 1449 to Christmas 1455 : but not in 1466.
Presumably the Clement Rudd referred to in the will of Thomas Atwood (the
1434—1460. 9
master), who leaves him his best portiforium. Rudd is to celebrate for him for
two years, '' si oontingat eum exonerari ab onere coUegii ad quern (?) promotus
fuit."
Medfield, of Physwick Hostel ; graduated B.A. in 1460.
•
♦Pjamour, George: fellow, Mids' 1449 to Christmas 1455: but not in 1466. He is
frequently entered simply as " George." In 1463 he received 20* for presiding

payment to him of 30*, " pro conductione cujusdam scholae," for a year and a

♦Heyles (Heylys) : fellow from Mich* 1454 to Christmas 1455; but not in 1466.
Probj&bly graduated M.A., 1456. In 1460 he seems to have presided in the
schools, as there is an entry in the Grace Book of £1 paid to him " pro firma
scholffi philosophise." Doubtless Robert Heylys, referred to in the will of
Thomas Atwood, who leaves him "bibliam meam...si completo anno suae
regencise in artibus voluerit se convertere ad studium Theologis." Vicar of
Cromer, 1462-97. Will proved (Norw.) Oct. 2, 1497. Leaves to his successor

♦Flyght : fellow, Mich* 1454 to Christmas 1455 : but not in 1466.
Bonne, John. Apparently a resident fellow or M.A. in 1458. Referred to in the
Proctor's Accounts: ''In solutione facta Johanni Bonne pro conductione
cujusdam scholse in qua solent Magistri artium disputare, quam scholam ipse

^Drentall, Thomas. M.A. 1460. Said (in the Annals) to have been a fellow.
Rector of St Michael Coslany, Norwich, 1464-1501. Contributed, about
1470, to the completion of the college chapel, £14. 13. 4. Executor in 1484
to Dame Margaret Paston {Norf. Arch, iii. 176). Will proved (Norw.)
Dec. 2, 1501. To be buried in St Michael's. Bequeaths "a pyxte of sylver

He presented, for that turn, Edmund Albon to Garboldisham, 1478. Gave
Rippington's Sermons to the church of St Mich. Coslany.
10 OONVILLE AND CAIUS.
♦Plumme, William. Appears as fellow, Lady Day 1466 to 1472. B.A. 1466-7.
M.A. 1470. ProbiBbbly the same who contributed 20* to the building of
St Mary's, Cambridge, in 1493 : was rector of Terrington St Clement, Norf.,
1499-1504; and elected one of the first fellows of Jesus College in 1499.
Chosen as curator or supervisor of their new buildings, and by Grace of the
Senate was excused attendance at congregations, processions <jcc., during the
progress of that work. Will proved (P. C. C.) Ap. 11, 1505. Described as
rector of Fladbury, Worcs., and of Terrington. Desires to be buried at
Fladbury. Leaves £20 for repair of the church of 'Newanton,' and many
small legacies.
Dogget, John ; " archdeacon of Chichester " ; is assigned as donor of a window in
our old library, and was probably therefore, like the other donors, at one time
a member. Presumably the preb. of Lincoln, 1474-1501 ; treasurer (not
archdeacon) of Chichester, 1479-1501 ; chancellor of Salisbury, 1486-1501 ;
chancellor of Lichfield, 1489-1501 ; provost of King's College, 1499-1501.
Buried in Salisbury Cathedral, 1501.
^Albon, Edmund. Appears as fellow, Lady Day 1466 to 1475 : but not in 1483.
B.A. 1460-1 : M.A. 1464. Probably graduated in medicine, 1475-6; and is
called M.D. Rector of Framlingham, Suff., 1476. Rector of Garboldisham,
Norf., 1478-85, when he resigned: he was presented by Thomas DrentalL
Preb. of St Paul's. Preb. ('Edward') of Lincoln, May to Oct., 1485. In
his will, dated Sep. 23, proved (P. C. C.) Nov. 22, 1485, he desires to be
buried in St Paul's, London. Leaves vestments " to each of my churches in
England, to each of my churches in Wales, and to either of my churches of
Garboldisham " : the first of his livings falling vacant to be given to Thomas
Croppe, and the next to Mr Lynne. Leaves two houses in and near London,
under certain conditions, to the college " for the exhibition and finding of two
bible clerks " : — which do not appear to have come to us. His exequies were
celebrated on the vigil of St Edmund, every fellow present to receive sixpence
out of the rents of Linton's close, Bamingham, which he had bought and
given to the college (AnncUs : — ^but there is some difficulty here, as ^e date
of the gift is assigned to 1518). According to the Annals he gave 90 marks
to the college during his lifetime : presumably to establish a chest like that
of Aylward (p. 4), as there are several references, in the early bursars'
accounts to the cista of E. Albon.
^Carter, John: son of John Carter; probably of Thomham, Norf. Appears as
fellow, Mich* 1466 to 1475. B.A. 1455: M.A. 1458. Probably B.D.
1471-2. Owing to an error in the Annals, he has been persistently called
Henry in our Commemoration Service, and elsewhere (v. Ath, Cant,),
Described as ^'scholaris ejusdem aulse" when appointed as attorney by the
college, in a deed of conveyance dated Nov. 20, 1467. Rector of Bumham
Thorpe, 1465-88: rector of Titchwell, 1486-1516: vicar of SwaflFham,
1488-1514; all in Norf. His exequies were celebrated on the day of
Epiphany. By a deed dated Aug. 12, 1504, he gave lands in Titchwell
and Thomham to the college ; they in return after his death were to celebrate
"sk Dirge and mass of Requiem" for his soul, and that of his father and
mother, choosing "an honest priest or scholar of the college" to pray for
them. He also gave " 8*', to be expended amongst the fellows at their dinner
or supper in amending of their repast, and then to remember the souls
aforesaid." There is a note in the Seg, Mag, p. 239, "The college was
constrained to recover these lands by law, and a new purchase, therefore the
conditions were not fulfilled."
L
1466—1475. 11
Mark, archdeacon of Norfolk. As he is recorded as the donor of one of the old
windows in the college chapel, he was probahly like most such donors
(v. Archd" Sponne) at one time a resident. Thomas Mark, Archd" of Norf.,
1459-76 ; and of Norwich, 1476-83. Also archdeacon of Ck)mwall, 1462.
•Sheriffe, Edmund. Master of the college, 1472-5. Preb. of Lincoln Cathedral,
1458. Rector of Lit. Billing, Northants., 1467. Archdeacon of Stow, lines.
Died Sep. 29, 1475. He was, in a way, the first historian of the college, his
Register having probably served as the foundation of the Annals of Dr Caius,
who describes him as " custos probus et frugi vir." This volume, which was
for some time supposed to be lost, is now in the college library. It is a
vellum folio containing transcripts of many early deeds, charters and licenses,
not a few of which have long been missing. Amongst these are the original
Statutes proposed by Gronville, but superseded by those of Bateman. On
the first page is the entry, ''Johannes Caius hunc librum vetustate dis-
solutum et neglectum ooUigari fecit cura sua atque refici, in vetustatis
memoriam et futuri temporis ezemplum, anno Dni 1564, mense Augusto."
SherifiTe states that the writing of the Register was commenced on Oct. 21,
1472. In 1472-3 (Grace Book) he obtained leave of absence from congrega-
tions, processions, <kc.
Booth. "N. Bothe" is recorded, in our old Computus Book (p. 192), as having
violently contested the mastership with SherifiTe in 1472, and appropriated
college property : it b then added that he was afterwards Bp of Exeter. Dr
Caius, in the Anruds^ repeating this statement, calls him Lav/rence Bothe. It
is difficult to clear up the confusion here. The Bp of Exeter was John Booth,
who was already bishop in 1465; and his brother Laurence was already
master of Pembroke in 1450 and Bp of Durham in 1457. Each had also
been chancellor before 1472; so the story can hardly be true of either of
them. I can find no N. Booth.
*Barly, John : fellow from Mich* 1466. Master of the college, 1483 to 1504. B.A.
1460-1 : MA. 1465 : D.D. 1475. He contributed largely to the building of
the walls, &c., round the college, giving £5, and excusing the repayment of

parsonage there, from the ground, wainscotted the chambers, and glazed the
windows, and gave to it much household stufif and many books, as appears by
his inventory thereof" (MS. Miscellanea, in library; prob. by Dr Brady).
This inventory is in the Treasury. Will dated June 14, 1504; proved
(P. C. C.) Feb. 16, 1504-5. Desires to be buried in the chancel of St Michael
Coslany. The wills of his father, mother, and brother William, to be carried
out before his own. Leaves £10 to Winterton church, and £5 to Somerton.
The residue of his property to be expended for his own soul, and those of his
father, mother, and brothers. Gives 40* for repairing the pavement by
St Michael's, commonly called "the Cokyhede." Edmund and Walter Stubbe,
and his brother Thomas Barley, executors.
♦Crome, Edmund: appears as fellow, 1475 to 1483. B.A. 1468-9: B.D. 1474-5.
Will dated March 1, 1510-11 ; proved (P. C. C.) May 18, 1517, of Edmund
Crome, clerk, canon of Sarum. He says that " memor Yerbi D^ ad Ezechiam
regem " he leaves all his disposable property, at the discretion of his executors,
for the good of his soul.
*Croppe, Thomas: appears as fellow, 1475 to 1483: but not in 1488. Probably

♦Costessey (Cossey), Henry. Master of the college, 1475-83. B.D. He was of
Norwich : ordained deacon on the title of the monastery of St Giles, Norwich,
March 11, 1440-1; priest, Ap. 14, 1441. Rector of Banham, 1452-83:
rector of Wilby, 1476-83 : rector of Bixton, 1472-83 (all in Norf.). He was
admitted master of Rush worth College, on the election of the brethren, Feb. 27,
1472 (Bennet), and held the post till his death. A deed in the Treasury,
executed by him, is dated at Rushworth June 24, 1482. Died July 20, 1483.
''A mass of requiem" was established for his soul on *the eve of the 11,000
virgins.' MS. 109, in the college library (Liber Physicus; in the printed
catalogue) belonged to him. It illustrates the difference between the objects
of Qonville's two foundations that Costessey seems to represent the only
personal link of connection between the two. The obit in his memory was
established in return for his benefactions to the college buildings. There
appear to be two of these : one of £200 given by him, John Awdry, alderman
of Norwich, and John Owdolf, clerk (d^ dated 1481), "to the behoof and
building of the college"; and another of 240 marks (probably in 1475) with
two aldermen of Norwich for the same purpose. According to a very early
note at the back of the deed of 1481, the money was employed in building the
north and south parts of Physwick's Hostel, the waUs of the college garden,
the " domus stabuli et domus pro focalibus in collegio, et ementur etiam picta
vestimenta AuIk....'' Tanner (Bib, Brit) seems to identify him with the
author of Expoaitionea in Paalmoa, and other works; but this man was a
Franciscan friar, and died in 1336 (Pits).
♦Stubbe (Stubbs), Edmund. Fourth son of John Stubb of Scottow, Norf. B.A.
1473-4 : M.A. 1477 : B.D. 1507. FeUow, 1480-1504. Master of the college,
1504-13. Rector of St Mich. Coslany, Norwich, 1504-13 : where he bought
land at the back of the parsonage, and built the stable {Reg. Mag.), In 1503
he presented to the University "duos bilances, unum ad ponderandum
cauciones in jocaliis, alterum ad ponderandum aurum et pondera eiisdem
attinentia." Died 1514 (* paulo post Festum S" Mathoi '). Will dated 1513 ;
proved ^P. C. C), 1514. Desires to be buried "pauperrime et sine pompa"
in the churchyard of St Michael Coslany, or elsewhere where he may die, at
a cost not exceeding 13' 4*^. Leaves a legacy to support priests, and provide
bread and wine, at St Michael's. Legacy to the Abbey of St Benet Hulme.
Leaves to Gonvile Hall " meum suplectile de motley " : books to M' Swayn,
and legacies to various relations. Mentions his brother Walter (v. Via. of
Norf.'y * Stubby').
♦Lynne. Elected fellow in 1480: not on the list in 1488. B.A. 1473-4: M.A.
1477. Probably Gregory Lynne, who was one of Thomas Croppe's executors ;
and to whom E. Albon left a living.
♦Cabold (Cobald), Thomas. B.A. 1476-7: M.A. 1480, when his *cautio' is
described as " una pecia argentea cum pede murre deaurato, xx* " {Grace book),
B. Civ. Law, 1486. FeUow, 1480 to April 1505. He was sent by the
University on some mission to Rome {Grace book, 1499-1500) for which he
was paid 40*, " pro negotiis Universitatis Romse expendendis." A grace was
passed next year " ut admittetur ad eundem gradum in quo stat Romie," but
k
1476—1489. 13
it does not appear what this was. Our MS. 45 (On the Decretals) has his
name in it. The master, K Stubbe, directs by will (1514) that the books and
" lintheamen " of Cabold, in the college chest, should be sold.
•Rythwyse, William. B.A. 1473-4 : M.A. 1477. FeUow, 1480 to 1483 : but not
in 1488. Vicar of Foulden, Norf., 1497-1502: rector of Hockwold, Norf.,

for church purposes : £b for the repair of Hockwold, £5 for a new vestment
at Foulden, £4 for one at Wilton and for one at SaUe, Ac. Bequeaths to the
college library, " Duns upon the four books of the Sentences, with the quod-
libets, and Francisci Con/UUus, and that they be chened in the liberary there
at my coste." The latter of these (No. 463) has his name in it. Walter
Stubbe is an executor.
*Barley, William : appears as fellow, 1483 to April 1502. He was nominated in
the deed of gift of Lady Eliz. Clere, as the first fellow of her foundation.
Probably brother of the master, and the same who graduated B.A. at Trin.
Hall, 1460-1 ; and B. Canon Law, 1467-8. Ordained priest (Norw.) on the
title of Trin. Hall, June 8, 1465. Our MS. 74 (Sermons by Ap Januensis)
belonged to him. He was already dead at the date of his brothers will, 1504.
Styled " Dr of Decrees " when acting for the college in a dispute about tithes
at Hockwold in 1485 (Deed).
•Buckenham, William. B.A. 1482-3: M.A. 1486: B.D. 1502: D.D. 1506-7.
Fellow, Mich* 1488 to Mich* 1513. Master of the college 1513 to 1536. His
deed of resignation (CoU. Treasury) is dated at St MichaeFs Coslany, June 12,
1536, to be revoked in case the person elected by the fellows should not be
approved by the chancellor. Vice-chancellor, 1509 and 1510. In 1533 he
was excused attendance at congregations, exequies, &c. Said to have been the
compiler, when vice-chancellor, of the " old Black Book," a MS. volume con-
taining an account of the charters and other records in the University
Registry. Arbitrator between the University and Barnwell Priory, 1506.
Vicar of H. Sepulchre, Cambridge, 1512. Rector of St Michael Coslany,
Norwich, 1514-40. Died at St MichaePs parsonage, June 18, 1540; where
he bought " a little piece of land to enlarge the yard where standeth the coope
for capons" (Reg, M(ignum), Will proved (Norw. C. C.) May 9, 1541 :
Mr Elwyn, of the college, chantry priest of St Michael's, one of the executors.
Part of the coUege buildings, viz. the chambers next the chapel on the £. side
of the (JonviUe Court, were erected by his brother Nicholas about 1516, who
also gave lands at Haddenham and elsewhere in Cambs. It seems {Annals)
that these lands were claimed by William Buckenham, and sold by him to the
coUege in 1524, the college buying them with the money left by a Dr Bailey.
Buckenham somehow became executor to the trust of Reginald Elie, who had
left money in 1471 for the foundation of almshouses ; and added £4. 12. 0 to
the legacy. Buckenham' s deed transferring these almshouses to the coUege is
dated from Norwich, Ap. 1, 1539. As regards his family, he seems to have
been a younger son of Hugh de Bokenham, of Gt livermere ; and brother of
Nicholas, of Fressingfield, who died in or about 1524. (C. B.)

Yutforth: pensioner, 1490-1. A Nicholas Woodforth was oanon of Beeston
Priory, Norf., at the visitations of 1494, 1514, and 1532 ; possibly the same

time. Signed the acknowledgement of Supremacy at Beeston, 1534.
De la Pole, Humphrey. Pensioner, 1490-1500. A son of the Duke of Suffolk.

1491. Rector of Hingham, NorL, to 1513. Rector of Leverington, Cambs.,

early printed Sarum Ma/nuale (1497) ''ad usum capelke et scholarium" (v.
CoUett's Catalogue). Perhaps resident again in 1521, as Dr Caius {Annals^
mentioning one of the not uncommon faction fights of the time, describes how
the North England party, mostly from Gerard's Hostel, then invaded (}onville
Hall, destroying the food, throwing the plate into the well, and attempting to
set the gate on fire. He says that the quarrel was mainly directed against
Humphrey Pole : but I do not find his name amongst the pensioners then ;
and Blomefield implies that he died in 1513.
Alleyn: pensioner, 1491-1505. Perhaps the same as Aleyn of p. 16.
Bards, Adrian de: pensioner in 1491. A Florentine. Treasurer of Hereford
Cathedral, 1478-86. Preb. of Hereford, 1479-80. Preb. of Lincohi, 1480-

Stow : pensioner, 1491.
Farewell : pensioner, 1497-9, his name remaining for many years as in debt to the

Wolman, John : a monk of St Alban's; pensioner, 1497.
Ward. A member of the college in 1498-9, when he is permitted by grace " quod
non arceatur interesse congregationibus." Perhaps the same who appears in
our books as resident 1506-10.
♦Tanne, John. FeUow, Mich* 1499 to Mich* 1510. B.D. 1506-7. University
preacher, 1507. Probably president of Physwick Hostel in 1500 and 1503.
Bursar of the coUege in 1509 ; in which capacity he seems to have died in
debt, as there is an entry for several years of money due from his executors.
Instituted to All Hallows, Honey Lane, 1510; and died a few months
afterwards.
♦Warner, William. Fellow, Mich* 1499 to L. Day 1517. B.A. 1497-8 : M.A,

1490—1502. 16
Corpus in 1545, by Matthew Parker, when he is said to have resigned
Winterton. Buried at Paston, Norf., Dec. 24, 1546. Present to comfort the
martyr Bibiey at his death in Norwich in 1531. Bihiey went "accompanied
by one Dr Warner whom he did choose as his old acquaintance, and parted
with the words 'Farewell good master Doctor and pray for me': and so
"Warner departed without any answer, sobbing and weeping " (Foxe : — ^v. also
Ath, Cant.),
De la Pole, G^ffirey. In our MS. No. 5 {Decreta Gratiani) is the note " ex dono
reverendissimi domini Galfridi de la Poole, legum doctoris, et hujus coUegii
commensalis, 1499." This may be a mistake for Humphrey above (as sug-
gested in Ath. Cant.) ; as may also the grace, 1494, to admit to congr^ations
William de la Pole, son of the same duke ; for neither of these names occurs
in the pedigrees. On the other hand Dr Caius {AnnaU), enumerating certain
distinguished members of the college, after mentioning Humphrey Pole, adds
that there were two sons of the Duke of Suffolk whose likenesses were
represented in a window on the staircase to the library and master's room
"in doctorali habitu." Again, Leland mentions (Itin. ii. 7) a son of the
De la Pole duke "that was scholar in Gunvile Haul, and lyith buried at
Babraham " : — can there have been a Geoffi^y or William who died young,
and has dropped out of the pedigrees! FuUer {Hist. p. 110) says that the
second was Edward, archdeacon of Richmond,
Davy, Richard. Pensioner in 1500-1. There is a reference to him in the Grace
Book, 1498-9; "solvitur M*** Davy de Aula Gunvel xx», pro recompense in

One of this name, son of John Reed, is said to have been prior of Waltham
in 1507.
Aylsham; a monk; pensioner, 1500-2. Doubtless John Aylsham, of the Abbey
of St Benet's Hulme, Norf.; mentioned in the bishop's visitations of 1520
and 1526.
Dobbs ; pensioner, 1500-15. A grace was passed, 1502-3, for Mr Dobbs "de aula
Gunwell, ut possit stare eodem gradu quo stetit Oxoniis " : but his name does
not appear in the Oxford lists. Perhaps John Dobbs, priest, of All Hallows,
Barking, whose will was proved (P. C. C.) Sep. 3, 1546.
Hegge. Graduated M.A. from Physwick Hostel, 1501. Perhaps Edward Hedge,

1525.
Aleyn : appears as a resident 1505-9 : at Fhyswick'a Hoetel. B.A. 1502-3 : M.A.
1507, "de domo Gunwell." Can he be the Godfrey Alan, "principal of
St William's Hostel," who obtained a grace for M.A- in 1506 T If so,
William Phyawick has by inadvertence been canonised. As Dr Caius tells
us {Annals), Physwick's Hostel had two principals, one appointed by the
college and the other by the resident students. Edward Crome held the former
post in 1509, so presumably Aleyn held the other. If so, he is the only known
holder of the post.
Gajrton, Paul: pensioner in 1505. One of the prebendaries of the college of
St Mary in the Fields, Norwich. Mentioned in the bishop's visitation
of 1492.

Abbey lands about 1544. He married Margaret Bacon of Cambridge. Died
Nov. 22, 1545, and buried at Fulham, where there was a monument to him.
Dr Caius dedicated his work De medendi ineihodo to him. He states that
being with Butts at Dover, the latter got leave from the king for him to go to
Italy for his health. Apparently they went to Padua together. Dr Caius
states (Annals) that Butts was with lum at our college : Cooper calls him a
fellow, but his name does not appear in our lists. Will proved (P. C. C.)

bought by Mr Edmund Stubbs the college called Gunwyle Hall shall have
it upon conditions ordained by Mr Worter Stubbs ; that Richard Smith my
child, and Gylys Webster shall be founded at Cambridge by the space of five
years with the money that shall come from Gunwyle Hall " : i.a they were to
be the first scholars. " All my lands &c. in Cowling and Cartelyng to mine
executors of a certain indenture made between me and Gunwyle Hall." He
had already given the lands, by this deed dated Sep. 7, 1504 : one of the
provisions was that if the sum of £4 yearly was insufficient to support a priest
there should be two scholars instead. He had also given, the year before,

of Aldermary, which she has obtained for him." Rector of St Antholin's,
London. In 1539 Cranmer recommended him for the deanery of Canterbury :
" I know that when he was but president of a college in Cambridge (i.e. of
Physic Hostel) his house was better ordered than all Uie houses in Cambridge
besides." (Strype: Mem, iii. L 160.) He presented a Greek-Latin Bible to the
library. He was chosen, with Shaxton and Skipp, amongst " the twelve best
learned men in Divinity," appointed in 1530 to examine heretical books. He
is mentioned by Strype, along with Simon Smith, Shaxton, Skipp, and Sygar
Nycholson, amongst the reformers who frequented the meetings at Cambridge.
He was repeatedly in trouble for his opinions, and was imprisoned in 1554,

crated bishop June 28, 1536, and from the day of his appointment he set
himself to make all he could of whatever was saleable, even to the extent of
trjdng to alienate the very palace at Norwich " (Jessopp, HiaL of Diocese).
Leland however, who knew lum well, says that he was " theologus ad unguem
doctus" (v. Dugdale, iii. 65). Died Sep. 21, 1550 : buried in the choir of the

Word... I know not mjself how soon I shall be at the same point that you

on the commission which condemned them. (v. AUi, Cant.).
Cocksall. Pensioner, 1521-4. John Coksall, B.A. 1518-9 : M.A. 1522. Probablj
the same who was "admitted to oppose" at Oxford, Dec. 1, 1519.
Elwyn, John. B.A. 1521-2: M.A. 1525. Probably of the college. Chantry
priest of St Michael Ooslany, Norwich, in 1536, when he was executor to
Dr Buckenham, the master. Afterwards rector there, 1561-9. The nomina-
tion of the chantry priest was given to the college, with an endowment of ten
marks, by Robert Thorpe of Norwich, and his wife, 1524. It vras, of course,
suppressed with other chantries (v. Beg. Mag. and AwnaU). He gave ub, '' by
lease of 600 years, a tenement and parcel of ground (to be part of tfa^
parsonage of St Michaers) for the yearly rent of a peppercorn if demanded ''
\Reg. mag.). He left by will "to the Lyberarye of the said Colledge as
many of my Lattyn Bookes as are meate for the same, to be delyvered by myn
executors at the house of John Staller in Sainct Austin's parnsh.'' He belonged
to the Thuming family ; Peter, of 1578, being his great nephew.
Witton (Wotton). Pensioner, 1522-3. B.A. 1521-2: M.A. 1525. From a note
in our early copy of Greoffrey Knight's will (see under Endowm/enU) he appears
to be the William Wotton Esq., who, with Sir William Paston, was appointed
recoverer of Knight's manor of Pattisley.
Rimpon. Pensioner, 1523-35. Probably the same as Rimpaine or Ricpaine of 1506.
Baily, John. D.D. Possibly of our college, — to which he is assigned by Cooper, —
but certainly of Pembroke, where he was elected fellow in 1498. He gave
X300 : with £200 of which lands were bought in Haddenham, and a house
in Cambridge, of Dr Buckenham, the master. He was rector of St Matthew's,
Ipswich, 1510-25. His will (proved, P.C.C., Sep. 9, 1525) is given in full
in Suff. Arch. (vii. 160). He desires to be buried before the High Altar of
St Matthews; leaves his "crymsyn gowne ingreyned with the hood" to
Dr Buckenham, who was left executor, with Edward Crome. He had a
contest with Cardinal Wolsey about the alienation of the tithes of St Matthew's.
The stone over his grave has disappeared during the last century. Dr Caius
{Annals) gives Feb. 20, 1534, as the date of Baily's foundation, which has
been copied in our Commemoration Service. This is the date of the deed by
which the fellowship was founded. It is a covenant between Dr Buckenham
and the college by which the former gives the lands above mentioned, and the
latter undertakes to establish the fellowship. There is no reference here to its
being the gift of Dr Baily ; nor to Baily having owned the house in Cambridge
(v. Ath. Cant.),

abroad. Died Oct. 22, 1577. (D. N. B.)
Gresham, Thomas. The well-known founder of the Royal Exchange, and of
Gresham College. It was only from a statement in the AnnalSf where Caius
mentions some of his contemporaries, that Gresham's connection with our
college was known, till the quite recent discovery of some of the missing
bursarial accounts. It now appears that he was a pensioner, for a year at
least, from Oct. 1530. (D. N. B.)
In a deed in our treasury (Richard Leder's gift of lands in Titchwell, July 6,
1530) the following names are mentioned, as members of the college :

The foregoing names have been recovered from very miscellaneous sources,
of which our own college records are naturally the most important. It was
not till 1544 that the first attempt was made to record the name of every
student in the University, by the Matricidation lists at the Registry. These,
however, are decidedly imperfect. No parentage is recorded, and in some
cases only surnames are given. The lists also are not complete ; for many
students who did not contemplate staying for a degree neglected to matricu-
late. And, for college purposes, they are still more imperfect ; for they take
no note of migrations from one college to another, before or after matriculation.
The following are the recorded matriculations at Conville Hall until the
commencement of our own Register in 1560. The first names, — May, 1544, —

to the Chancellor, begging *' that our master may be ruled by some good man's
counsel hereafter, and not to drive the fellows to such chargeable suits and
troubles, wherein he delighteth to undo poor men, he never being quiet since
he came to the college, as may appear in the number of his expulsions which
have been above twenty" (StcUe Pap, Dom,^ 1565). They appealed to Abp
Parker, who thought both parties to blame. They afterwards appealed to the
Chancellor (Cecil), who, on Parker's advice, decided *' that the fellows should
appear willingly io depart from their fellowships, and yet to have one year's
profits for their tdHmum vale: to be borne for Spencer out of Gains' own
purse, and for the other two to be borne by the college " (v. Strype's Parker

appears to have resided three years or more in college, and his real character
seems to have been at once suspected by the fellows. He was at first sizar to
Hugh Cressy, and afterwards appointed butler by Dr Legge, an office usually
held by a scholar. He was the subject of violent complaints against the
master by the anti-Romish party in college. " That the said Finglye was made
butler* by the master without consent of the fellows... that the common rumour
was that he did labour to pervert youth secretly... came veiy seldom or never
to prayer or sermons... could not be drawn unto them by warning and cor-
rection often used by this deponent (H. Faman)...was not sent away by the
master, but that his lewd dealing being detected he ran away." " There was
very much speech of a mass reported to be said by Fingley in the master's
great chamber, and that he was by some suspected to be a priest " (LanscL
33). There is a reference to him as ^' a priest of Gkxi, put into a low prison,
into a deep and darksome dungeon," at York (v. Foley iii. 251 ; and
D. N. B.). For more see Caian, VoL v.
^ The butler was a college officer who ranked with the scholars, and should have been
appointed, like them, by the master and fellows together.

but rejoined the church of Rome in 1587, "valde pcenitens." He was refused
his degree at Cambridge, on account of his opinions. One of the complaints of
the fellows was " that Osbume, being convicted of Papistry, the master did
not expulse him '' {Lansd. 33). In a letter from the Recorder of London it is
stated that " one Osborne a seminary priest came drooping into a chamber
where M' Topcliffe and myself were. Him we examined, and it appeared that
he was a seminary priest and had dwelt at the Hospital at Rome four years,
and after he was professed into the house of the Franciscans being barefoot
friars that lived by begging: and that he lived by begging, and that he
laboured by cutting wood and bearing of it upon his back " (Strype, Ann, iii.

Died of apoplexy Oct. 14, 1613: buried in the chapel. He seems to have

1593, one. witness, Jane Shelley, 'testifies that she had consulted him at
Cambridge, as to the recovery of certain money and jewels. She also asked
him as to the fate of her husband who was now in prison. Also what had
become of her deed of jointure... he answered knaves be knaves. She was
in hand with him to set a figure to know whether her husband would
escape... he told her he could not do it unless he had her husband's nativity.'
(Cal. of StcUe Papers^ Dom, 1593.) There was formerly a monument to
him in the floor of the chapel entrance: long since worn out. He was
largely consulted by Sir Chr. Heydon in the production of his Defence of
JudicieU Astrology (see 19 letters from the latter; MS. 73, Coll. library).
He was tutor to William Heydon (see on, 1597-8). He gave to our library
a "sphsera fenea cum capsula": — this must be the larger of the two old
astrolabes now in our college. The Annals admit that "in arcana natune
penetrare ausus est," especially devoting himself to Astrology, and that
he thereby came into some obloquy; but it is claimed that he was very
distinguished in mathematics and medicine, and that be was the teacher
of Henry Briggs and of other mathematicians. It is added that such
writings as he left behind, with the exception of one medical tract, were in
some way turned, by his heirs, to their own profit. (For more see Caian^
