    lived, and the senior died in the latter end of the year (in March) 1549. Batchelor of Grammar. Edw. Pendleton the famous schoolmaster of Manchester in Lancashire, was admitted to the reading of any book of the faculty of grammar, that is, to the degree of batch, of grammar; but the day or month when, is not set down in the public register, now very much neglected. Batchelors of Arts. H umph. Lloyd or Llhuyd, now, or soon after, of Brasen- nose-coll. Julius Palmer of Magd. coll—This person was elected probationer fellow of the said coll. 25 July 1549, and true and perpetual fellow in the year following. In 1553 he left his fellowship, and what became of him after, John Fox in his book of The Acts and Monuments of the Church, &c. will tell you at large among the martyrs that stood up and died for the Protestant religion, under the year 1556. This year also was admitted batch, of arts one Barth. Green, ®but whether the same with Bartlet (that is little Bartholomew) Green who suffered martyrdom for the Pro¬ testant cause, an. 1556, as you may see at large in the book of Acts and Monuments of the Church, under that year, I cannot justly say. John Fox, who hath written his story, tells you that he was educated in the university of Oxon, and afterwards in the inns of court. “ See Maunsell’s Ca- “ talogue, P. I. p. 55. a.” Thirty and one batch, were admitted this year. Batchelors of Laio. Tho. Randall or Randolph of Ch. Ch.—He was after¬ wards principal of Broadgate’s hall, and a frequent ambas¬ sador in the reign of queen Elizabeth. Besides him, I find but one more admitted, the register, as I have told you before, being much, or in a manner alto¬ gether neglected. Masters of Arts. Thomas Godwyn of Magd. coll. Thomas Bentham of Magd. coll. They were afterwards bishops. Richard Edwards of Ch. Ch. Will. Whittyngham, of Ch. Ch. The former was lately of C. C. qoII. and now in much esteem for his poetry; the other was lately of All-s. coll, but not as yet known to have any eminence in him. James Bicton of Ch. Ch. now dean of Kilkenny in Ire¬ land.—He died in 1552, and was buried in the cathedral of Ch. Ch. in Oxon. [72] Christop. Malton (of Ch. Ch. also as it seems)—On the 3 of April 1564, he was installed archdeacon of Clievland in the place of Dr. John Warner resigning, and dying in the'1 latter end of the year (in March) 1569, was succeeded by Ralph Coulton M. of A. and prebendary of York, after¬ wards batch, of div. Batchelor of Divinity. Jul. — Rich. Bruerne of Line. coll.—He was after¬ wards Hebrew professor of this university, canon of Ch.Ch. and of Windsor, fellow of the college at Eaton, of which he was elected provost, about 1561, but soon after ejected. He died about the latter end of April 1565, and was buried in the chappel of St. Geoige at Windsor. John Leland numbers2, him among the learned men of his time, and saith. That he was Hebrsei radius chori. Several other batchelors of divinity were admitted this year, but not registred, among whom Rich. Turner of Mag¬ dalen coll, was not. (C^ Not one doctor of law was admitted this year. Doctors of Physic. Feb. — Tho. Hughes or Hewes of Mert. coll.—He was afterwards physician to qu. Mary, and one of the college of physicians at London. He died at London in the month of August 1558, and was a benefactor to the college which had given him education. Edmund Crispyne of Oriel coll, lately a shagling lec¬ turer of physic, now one of the proctors of the university, did supplicate to be licensed to proceed in physic. Also Henry Baylie the other proctor, did in like manner do so, and were without doubt licensed, (tho’ not registred so to be) because I find them afterwards to be written and stiled doctors of physic. (d3 Not one doctor of divinity was admitted or licensed this year. Incorporations. Feb. — Pet. Martyr doct. of div. of the university of Padua, was then incorporated doct. of div.—He was this year designed by the king to read a divinity lecture in the university, which he accordingly began to do in the begin¬ ning of the next year. One Edward Banke and John Chaundler were incor¬ porated B. of arts, but ot what university they had been, is not set down; which is all I know of them. An. Dom. 1548.—2 Edw. 6. Chancellor. Dr. Rich. Cox dean of Ch. Ch. Vice- Chancellor. Dr. Walt. Wryght. Proctors. John Redman of Magd. coll. adm. 26 April. Thomas Symons of Mert. coll. adm. 26 April. Batchelors of Arts. The admission of batchelors and catalogue of determiners being this year omitted by the registrary, I cannot give you the names of any who were afterwards bishops, writers, &c. only David de la Hyde, whom I have mention’d among the writers, an. 1580. Batchelor of Law. Maurice Clennock Avas admitted, but the day or month when, appears not.—He was afterwards elected to the epis¬ copal see of Bangor, but queen Mary dying before his con¬ secration thereunto, he fled beyond the seas; and what be¬ came of him there, I have told you already in Arthur Bokely, among the bishops, under the year 1555. Masters of Arts. James Neyland of All-s. coll.—This person, who was 3 In Cygn. Cant.
