About the Book

This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1890 edition. Excerpt: ...it were in an Orphan's Hospital freely)," compares strangely with the scale of endowments in the latter part of last century, when a Senior Fellow's income might average 800/.

He spent seven years in preaching on that book, mostly on Fridays. On St. Matthew's Gospel he spent five years in preaching on Sunday Afternoons 210 sermons." The standard of discipline in the early years of the College history was severe, if somewhat elastic, as the following entries show: --"A public whipping, at the hour of corrections, for breaking the Provost's windows." "A student fined 25s. for stealing half a hogshead of the Provost's strong beer, through Sir Wilson's study wall being broken." "Made to sit in the stocks at supper-time for fighting with weapons." Apparently it was not only the undergraduates who " fought with weapons" --"November 21, 1617.--Mr. Taylor, Senior Fellow and Dean, severely censured and punished for a wound committed upon the person of Gower, a Scholar of the House." In 1619 a general state of laxity was discovered equally among undergraduates and bachelors. Passing over...
