Most of these admissions are taken from bonds, required by statute to be given at admission in the reigns of Hen. 8 and queen Mary, 15 some from a broken, imperfect register in the treasury, a very few collected from the series of names, as they stand upon some old collegebooks, or other papers.

The first fellows are taken from the original charter of the foundation, or from the act or instrument of opening the college, both 20 which I have often perused; there is a copy of the latter upon an old register.
