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 

'  In  Mrly  times  not  only  every  college  servant  was  reckoned  to  belong  to  the  Uniyersity, 
and  allowed  corresponding  priyilegee,  bat  also  many  tradesmen  and  other  townsmen  whose 
business  bronght  them  into  dose  relation  with  the  students.  Their  wills  are  proyed  at  the 
University  Begistry,  and  their  names  are  sometimes  to  be  found  in  the  Biatrioolation  lists. 


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 

1  I  eztrActed  those  which  oonoem  our  own  college  many  jears  ago,  and  haye  carefully 
eompared  them  with  the  infonnation  yielded  by  onr  own  leeords.  Bat  it  may  be  well  to  state 
that  until  the  general  degree  liats  have  been  yerified  by  the  tuppUeati,  compared  with  the 
matrienlations  and  college  admiadons,  and  printed,  abeolnte  certainty  will  be  impossible. 
From  1625  we  haye  lists  of  the  gradoates  i^  onr  own  coUege,  in  the  Admission  Begister.  These 
may  be  thoron^y  depended  opon,  and  they  show, — what  is  evident  on  other  grouids, — that 
there  are  many  omissions  in  the  University  lists. 


Vlll  INTRODUCTION. 

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

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

M3.  degree  should  he  refused  the  college  testimonial  for  holy  orders ;  and,  if  fellows,  should  not

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

in  each  case  with  the  remarks  in  the  paragraph  which  foUows  it.  A  man  is  repeatedly  described 
as  *  agricola,'  'yeoman,'  or,  'mediocris  fortmiie/  who  was  technicaUy  a  gentleman  in  the  strictest 
sense,  as  being  indnded  in  the  Heralds*  Visitations  (see,  e,g,,  the  Lowdes,  pp.  200,  341).    I  may

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, 
at  some  monasteriee,  when  th^  went  np  for  orders.  ThoB  at  Bntley,— one  of  the  honses 
lepreeented  at  GonviHe  HaU, — it  is  indignantly  complained,  in  1582,  that  **  confratres  transennt 
pedestres  pro  ordinibns  recipiendis,  in  soandalnm  domaB...solent  ezire  pedites,  et  non  eqnitare." 


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,

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

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 
tronX  court,  and  it  has  a  well-known  old  apple-tree  in  it.

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

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

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.

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.

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

•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,

-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).

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.''

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,

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 :

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

Received  the  minor  orders  from  the  Bp  of  Norwich,  Dec.  23, 1412 ;  and  priest's

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.

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

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

♦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

Dogget,  John ;  "  archdeacon  of  Chichester " ;  is  assigned  as  donor  of  a  window  in

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.

fellow,  Mich*  1466  to  1475.  B.A.  1455:  M.A.  1458.  Probably  B.D.

Henry  in  our  Commemoration  Service,  and  elsewhere  (v.  Ath,  Cant,), 
Described  as  ^'scholaris  ejusdem  aulse"  when  appointed  as  attorney  by  the

"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."

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.

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 
£50  which  he  had  spent  {AnnaU).  Rector  of  Bamingham  Winter,  1459-66. 
Vicar  of  Mattishall,  1466-79.  Rector  of  Winterton,  1479-1504  (all  in 
Norf.).  Rector  of  St  Michael's  Coslany,  Norwich,  1501-4:— "he  built  the 
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

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

deacon  (Norw.),  as  a  member  of  *  Gunvylehalle/  June  8,  1476:  priest, 
Sep.  21,  1476.  B.  Can.  Law,  1482-3.  Will  dated  June  27,  1488;  proved 
(P.  C.  C.)  July  12.  To  be  buried  by  St  Paul's  Cathedral,  "  as  nigh  M'  Edmund 
Albon  as  it  may  be."  A  priest  to  sing  for  his  soul  by  the  spaoe  of  one 
year ;  10  marks  if  he  sing  in  London,  £9  if  in  Cambridge  and  be  a  scholar  in 
Divinity.     Legacy  to  the  high  altar  of  St  Botolph,  Billingsgate. 

♦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., 
1497-1502:  he  had  a  bull  from  the  pope,  1495,  to  hold  the  two  benefices 
together.  Will  proved  (Norw.)  July  3,  1502.  He  leaves  considerable  sums 
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.) 

•Dew  (Dowe),  John.  B.A.  1484-5:  M.A.  1490,  when  his  caucio  was  "unum 
missala"  FeUow,  1488  to  1500.  President  of  Physwick  Hostel,  1499. 
Vicar  of  Mattishall,  Nort,  1500-17. 

•Whyght,  John.  M.A.  1490.  Fellow,  1488  to  about  1499.  Proctor,  1497-8. 
D.D.  1510.  Rector  of  Filby,  Norf.,  1505-12 ;  and  vicar  of  Wroxham,  Norf., 
1509-14. 

Stowe:  pensioner,  1489-91. 


14  GONVILLE  AND  CAIUS. 

Yutforth:  pensioner,  1490-1.  A  Nicholas  Woodforth  was  oanon  of  Beeston 
Priory,  Norf.,  at  the  visitations  of  1494,  1514,  and  1532 ;  possibly  the  same 
man ;  as  monks,  and  especially  canons,  were  the  principal  pensioners  at  this 
time.     Signed  the  acknowledgement  of  Supremacy  at  Beeston,  1534. 

De  la  Pole,  Humphrey.  Pensioner,  1490-1500.  A  son  of  the  Duke  of  Suffolk. 
Probably  B.  Civ.  Law,  1496-7 ;  and  B.  Can.  Law,  1500-1 :  Grace  for  Dr  of 
Can.  Law,  1501.  Ordained  acolyte  at  Downham,  by  the  Bp  of  Ely,  Sep.  29, 
1491.     Rector  of  Hingham,  NorL,  to  1513.     Rector  of  Leverington,  Cambs., 

1500.  Preb.  of  St  Paul's :  resigned  in  1509.  He  presented,  Sep.  8,  1498,  an 
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- 
1501. 

Stow :  pensioner,  1491. 

Farewell :  pensioner,  1497-9,  his  name  remaining  for  many  years  as  in  debt  to  the 
college.  Probably  M.A.  1496;  B.D.  1506.  A  John  Farewell  was  vicar  of 
Camberwell,  1526-56;  and  vicar  of  Bermondsey.  Preb.  of  Llandaff,  1537. 
Will  proved  (P.  C.  C.)  Oct.  8,  1556 :  leaves  legacies  for  the  churches  of 
Weasenham  and  St  Martin's  Rainham,  Norf. ;  Rotherhithe,  and  Llanarmon. 
One  of  the  same  name  was  vicar  of  St  Mary  in  the  Marsh,  Norwich,  1507-14.

in  1520. 

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,

One  of  the  band  of  early  Cambridge  reformers.  President  of  Physwick's 
Hostel,  1503.     Rector  of  Winterton,  Norf.,  1515-45.     Appointed  fellow  of 


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 
riota." 

Gawmbridge;  a  Norwich  monk,  pensioner  1500-3.  John  Cambridge  of  the 
Benecuctine  Priory.     Described  as  "  ref ectuarius  "  in  the  visitation  of  1514. 

Reed;  pensioner,  1500-5.  Perhaps  Alan  Reed;  B.A.  1502-3:  M.A.  1506,  when 
he  was  excused  one  term's  exercises  on  account  of  absence  "  propter  pestem.'' 
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.

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

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

St  Michael  Coslany,  Norwich,  1540 :  deprived  about  1556.  Probably  rector 
of  Great  Ry burgh,  1543-54:  and  of  Sloley,  1557-8.  Curate  of  St  Andrew,

Pecka     Scholar,  Mich*  1519  to  1523. 

Sanderson,  Thomas.     Appears  on  the  list  as  <  cocus,'  1520-2. 

Clark.  Pensioner,  1520.  As  he  occurs  amongst  the  monks  he  is  very  probably 
John  Clark,  canon  of  Westacre,  who  was  certainly  at  Cambridge  at  this  time. 
Described,  in  the  Bishop's  Visitation  of  Westacre  in  1520,  as  "idoneus  pro 
novitiis  et  janioribns " ;  but  having  been  absent  as  a  scholar  (scholaris)  he 
does  not  know  anything  of  Uie  state  of  the  monastery.  *^  Magister  novitiorum  ** 
in  1526,  when  he  preached  the  sermon  at  the  Bishop's  Visitation :  ''supervisor 
evidentiarum  "  in  1532.  One  of  these  names  was  presented  to  South  Lynn  in 
1542,  by  Dr  Thomas  Legh,  assignee  of  the  prior  of  Westacre;  and  held  it  till 
1656.  Will  proved  (Norw.  C.  C.)  July  7, 1557.  Perhaps  rector  of  Northwold

with  4  years  of  philosophy  in  his  monastery.  D.D.  1527.  A  Dr  Boord,  of 
Sussex,  was  charged,  amongst  other  things,  with  ''attempting  to  induce  Dr 
Senocke  to  forsake  his  allegiance,  and  to  leave  the  realm";  1535  (CaL  of  State 
Pap.),     Sennock  received  a  pension  of  £7  at  the  surrender,  Nov.  16,  1537.

An  early  reformer.  Charged,  about  1529,  with  holding  protestant  opinions, 
and  having  the  works  of  Luther  in  his  possession.  Long  imprisoned,  and  said 
to  have  been  treated  with  great  barbarity.  "Do  you  not  hold  Nicholson, 
Smyth,  Patmore,...with  many  others,  in  prison  at  this  hourl"  (Latimer  to 
Huberden,  1535,  Strype,  Mem.;  i.  ii.  179).  Late  in  life  he  was  ordained  by 
the  Bp  of  London :  deacon,  Dec.  17 ;  and  priest,  Dec.  21,  1564 :  from  whose 
roister  we  learn  that  he  was  then  64,  resident  in  St  Edward's  parish,  Cam- 
bridge, and  that  he  was  bom  in  Maestricht.     (v.  Ath.  CarU.) 

Bolney.  Pensioner,  1520-2.  A  monk :  doubtless  from  Lewes,  as  he  is  bracketed 
with  others  of  iha,t  house.  If  so,  he  was  Anthony  Bolney,  and  one  of  those 
who  signed  the  surrender.  As  sub-prior  he  received  a  pension  of  £7,  Nov.  16, 
1537.  If  he  was  also  sub-prior  in  1535,  he  is  referred  to  by  CromwelPs  agent 
Layton:  "The  sub-prior  hath  confessed  to  me  treason  in  his  preaching:  I 
have  caused  him  to  subscribe  his  name  to  it,  and  submit  himself  to  the  Song's 
mercy"  (CcU.  of  State  Pap. ;  and  v.  Crome,  p.  22). 

Horton,  the  prior  of.  Pensioner,  1521-3 ;  and  probably  longer.  His  name  first 
appears  in  our  books  ('Gloster')  in  1510.  Horton  in  Kent,  a  cell  of  Lewes 
priory.  Richard  Gloucester,  alias  Brisley,  who  graduated  as  B.  Canon  Law,

and  canon  law  six  years,  here,  at  Oxford,  and  in  his  monastery.  Dr  of 
the  same  faculty,  1522-3.  He  appears  to  have  graduated  also  at  Oxford ;

Brysley,  Nov.  13,  1527 : — till  then  the  presentation  was  in  the  hands  of  the 
prior  and  convent  of  Horton.  Will  proved  (P.  0.  C.)  Ap.  14,  1558.  He 
beseeches  "  the  holy  virgin  and  all  the  blessed  company  of  heaven  to  pray  for 
me ''..." my  obsequies  to  be  celebrated  according  to  the  order  of  Christ's 
Catholic  Church,  and  my  degree.**  Many  legacies  to  relations^  and  books  to 
the  cathedral 

Devall  (Vale),  Peter.  Pensioner,  1521-4.  Doubtless  Peter  Valentius,  a  French- 
man by  birth,  and  mnpathiser  with  the  Reformation.  Many  years  chaplain 
and  almoner  to  Goodrich,  Bp  of  Ely.    In  1555,  he  visited  the  martyrs  Wolsey

and  Pigot  in  prison,  bidding  them  *'stAnd  to  the  truth  of  the  Gospel  and 
Word... I  know  not  mjself  how  soon  I  shall  be  at  the  same  point  that  you 
now  are"  (Foxe  vii.  404).  Shaxton  and  Steward  (see  back,  pp.  19,  23)  were 
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.), 

*Cake,  William.  B.A.  1524  :  M.A.  1526  (assigned  to  Queens').  His  name  appears 
in  our  books,  as  scholar  and  afterwards  fellow,  1523-35.  Probably  the  Mr 
Cake  who  was  chaplain  to  Bp  Shaxton  in  1535.     Proctor,  1532.

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 : 

William  Buckenham,  D.D. 
Nicholas  Shaxton.

Edward  Crome  jun'. 
Nicholas  Saxton  jun**. 
Robert  Clarke. 
Thomas  Oxborough. 
John  Key& 
William  Breton. 
Robert  Farror. 

The  last  seven  are  termed  'scholares.'  Most  of  these  names  occur  in  our 
own  records ;  but  there  seems  no  other  reference  to  Nicholas  Saxton  (Shaxton) 
jun',  or  Thomas  Oxborough.  A  Thomas  Hewar,  a/ww  Oxborough,  of  Oxborough, 
died  in  1585,  aged  66. 

Taverner,  Richard :  pensioner  from  1530  to  1534.  Dr  Caius  calls  him  a  fellow

For  some  time  fellow  of  our  college,  being  nominated  in  the  charter  of  1557. 
There  is  a  note  against  his  name  in  a  return  of  July  1559  (Univ.  Registry) 
"  absens  a^r."  Appointed  Knight's  priest,  or  salarist,  May  17,  1560.  Rector 
of  Little  Massingham,  Norf.,  1558-61.     Died  in  1561. 

(Some  of  the  above  names  are  taken  from  a  valuable  return,  viz.  the 
Report  of  the  Royal  Commission  of  Jan.  16,  37th  Henry  VIII. :  Le.  1545-6. 
Besides  a  minute  account  of  the  revenues  of  each  college  there  is  a  list  of 
the  fellows  and  scholars  at  the  time.  See  Parker  MS.  No.  108 ;  in  the  Corpus 
Library.) 

Donnell,  Robert.  Mentioned  as  M.A.,  and  formerly  of  the  college,  at  his  son's 
admission  in  1590.  Rector  of  Birdbrook,  Essex,  1572-1601.  Described  as

Lord  deputy  of  Ireland,  1578.     Died  m  Ireland,  Sep.  30,  1579.         (D.  N.  B.) 

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, — 
include,  presumably,  every  student  then  resident :  the  succeeding  names  are, 
as  a  rule,  those  of  the  freshmen  of  each  year. 

Marchall :  fellow-commoner. 

Brookman,  Thomas :  pensioner. 

Brookman,  Charles :  pensioner. 

Fowler,  James :  pensioner.  One  of  these  names  admitted  at  the  Inner  Temple,

member  of  a  local  family. 

Wyseman,  John:  pensioner.  One  of  these  names  vicar  of  Newnham,  Herts.,

drift  was  as  he  (Abp.  Parker)  judged,  for  Dethick  to  continue  such  sticklers  in 
the  College,  of  his  pupils,  as  might  win  him  in  time  by  hook  or  by  crook,  the

by  the  Master,  who  charged  him  also  with  perjury.  He  and  Warner  complain 
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

York  gaol;  tried  there;  and  hanged  and  quartered,  Aug.  8,  1586.  He 
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

Died  of  apoplexy  Oct.  14,  1613:  buried  in  the  chapel.  He  seems  to  have 
had  considerable  reputation  as  an  astrologer.  In  his  examination  in  London, 
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^

against  him  by  seven  of  the  fellows,  July  18,  1582,  in  which  they  declare  that 
"  we  are  more  and  more  daily  molested  and  contemned  not  only  by  the  inferior
