The letter from Hornby to the Brethren of St John's Hospital has now a hole in the centre of it. There is a transcript of the letter in the Baker MSS, and this has supplied us with the missing words. The College, as is well known, was fo unded upon the old Hospital of St J olm, which had fallen into decay. Acting upon Fisher's advice it was the intention of the Lady Margaret to have had this transformed into a College of secular students. But as she died before her designs had been completed the duty fell upon her executors. For an account of the difficulties which met them at every step from "an imperious pope, a forbidding prince, and a mercenary prelate" I must refer my readers to Baker's Hzstory of our he House and Cooper's Hzstory 0/ t Lady Maf'garet, both edited by Profe sso r Mayo r.
