Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The University of Cambridge: From the Royal Injunctions of 1535 to the Accession of Charles the First
For the encouragement and practical aid which I have received in every quarter, I here take the opportu nity of expressing my sincere thanks. To the Masters of Magdalene, Trinity, Emmanuel, and Sidney Colleges, my acknowledgements are especially due for access to documents, and for advice and corrections in my accounts of those several foundations. To the Rev. John E. B. Mayor, ia, professor of Latin and senior fellow of St John's Collegc, - to J. E. Sandys, esquire, A, fellow and tutor of St John's Col lege and public orator to the university, - awl to the Rev. Christopher Wordsworth, 3.1l, formerly fellow of Peterhouse, I am, as in connexion with my former volume, under no small measure of obligation for continuous help in the revision of my proof-sheets and other valuable assistance. To no one, however, is my indebtedness in this respect greater than to the late E. R. Horton, esquire, its fellow of I'eterhouso and vice master of University College School, London, who, until within a few weeks of his lamented death, aided me with a careful and suggestive criticism which I shall always gratefully remember. To the Rev. II. R. Lourd, D.D., senior fellow of Trinity College and registrar of the university, I am indebted for access to the original documents in the registry; to Henry Bradshaw, esquire, senior fellow of King's College and university librarian, for information relating to the history of the Library and other matters of literary interest; to J. \villis Clark, esquire, m.a., auditor and late fellow of Trinity College, for the loan of transcripts of the original statutes of the college and other help; to W. Aldis Wright, esquire, ma, fellow of Trinity College, for information and valuable guidance on points connected with the history ofm u, of Christchurch, Oxford; to T. \v. Jackson.
