The Eagle 1907 (Easter)
Afay Term 1907. , NOTES FROM THE COLLEGE RECORDS. (Colltilluedjrom page 163). E give a further instalment of documents relating to the surplice controversy at St john's. These are from the State Papers, Domestic, in the Record Office. Two letters from Longworth are from Baker's collections. The first document however is taken from Strype's Life and Acts of Archbishop Parker, appendix No. xlii. It would appear that Longworth signed this apology or recan tation before Cecil, undertaking to read it publicly in the College; but when he came to do this he introduced certain verbal changes, which seem to have been duly noted and recorded. The words which he omitted are printed in italics, those which he added are enclosed in brackets. It is clear that his proceedings were subjected to the closest scrutiny by his opponents.
