PREFACE.

Of Graduates and of Officers, only meagre and broken records are preserved in the archives of the Scottish Universities. Such works as Anthony a Wood's Athenae and Fasti Oxonienses, Boase's Register of the University of Oxford, Foster's Alumni Oxonienses, Cooper's Athenae Cantabrigienses, Luard's Graduati

Cantabrigienses, etc., the Scottish academic annahst need not attempt to rival, either in completeness or in detail. Nor—apart from the adoption of some system analogous to the admirable Quinquennial Catalogue of the older American Colleges—does it seem possible for our Universities to accumulate material adequate to the needs of the future historian.

Even such lists of names as are extant have hitherto been made public only to a very limited extent. Appendices added by Professor Andrew Duncan to Professor Thomas Crawfurd's History of the University of EdinbiLrgh (Edinb., 1808-21) give the Register of Graduates in Medicine, 1705-1821. This list is continued to 1845 in Nomina eorwn ijtii Gradum Medicinae Doctoris in Acad. Jac. VI. Scot. Regis, quae Edinb. est, adept sunt (Edinb., 1846) ; and to 1866 in a List of the Graduates in Medicine of the University of Edinburgh (Edinb., 1867). In 1858 Mr. David Laing edited for the Bannatyne Club a Catalogue of Graduates in the Faculties of Arts, Divinity, and Law at the University of Edinburgh since its Foundation. An Alphabetical List of the Graduates of the University of Edinburgh from 1859 to 1888, compiled by Mr. Thomas Gilbert, Registrar of the viii PREFACE.

University, carries the record down to the date of issue. In this connection may be noted two contributions to the literature of the Tercentenary Celebrations of the same University in 1884: the Viri Illustres of Professor Patrick Geddes, and the Quasi Cursores of Mr. William Hole. The third volume of the Munimcnta Alme Universitatis Glasguensis, edited in 1854 for the Maitland Club by Mr. Cosmo Innes and Mr. Joseph Robertson, contains lists of Masters of Arts of the University of Glasgow for the periods 1578- 1695 and 1707-27. The present Assistant Registrar, Mr. Innes

Addison, has compiled a MS. Catalogue of all Graduates, honorary and ordinary, from 1728 to 1890; and it is understood that the propriety of printing this is under consideration. No part of the Records of the University of St. Andrews has as yet been published. As regards the Universities of Aberdeen, the Fasti Aber- donenses, edited in 1854 by Mr. Cosmo Innes, and presented to the original Spalding Club by its President the fourth Earl of

Aberdeen, includes a transcript of the list of Masters of Arts of University and King's College for the period 1600-86. It has been thought no unfitting task for the Nev/ Spalding Club to complete the work begun under the auspices of the parent Society, and to herald the approaching Quatercentenary of the older Aberdeen University by the issue of a volume containing a Record, as exhaustive as it is now possible to compile, of the Officers and Graduates of King's College, down to the date when it ceased to exist as a separate corporation, being merged, with Marischal College and University, in the University of Aber- deen. The Fasti Acadeniiae Mariscallanae, of which the first portion appeared in 1889, will in its second volume contain a like Record for Marischal College, 1593- 1860. The archives of the University have, in the freest manner, been placed at the service of the Editor. Appended is an Inven- M

PREFACE. ix tory of the Manuscripts (chiefly in the Library or the Muniment Room at King's College) with which he has made himself familiar, and on which he has almost exclusively depended for the details (other than those in footnotes) printed in this volume.

To many of the names printed in this volume are appended

notes, as far condensed as is consistent with intelligibility, giving

clues to the identity of the individuals. The lists owe much of their accuracy to two classfellows and friends of the Editor Mr. David Craib and the Rev. Stephen Ree—who have un- grudgingly spent time and trouble in identifying individuals and

collating different authorities. The bulky index is the work of Miss Margaret Craig, by whom also many of the original MS. lists have been transcribed. —

PREFACE. XVll

The frontispiece by which the volume is adorned is from the brush of Sir George Reid, P. R.S.A., not now for the first time employed to benefit the Club and the University. The portrait of Pope Alexander VI. was specially photographed by Signor Giacomo Brogi, Florence. The use of the steel plate of King's College in 1822 has been courteously granted by Messrs. D. Wyllie & Son. The Editor has especial pleasure in expressing deep indebtedness to Principal Sir William D. Geddes, whose knowledge of academic history has been freely drawn upon, and whose regard for the interests, not less of the Club than of the University, induced him to undertake the irksome task of revising all the proof-sheets of the book. To the Principal alone—his old Teacher, not of Greek only—the Editor is willing to yield in attachment to that College with which they have been so long associated

Linked to the story and aim of the Crown,

Bound by unbreakable tie.

VI. 's Bull of Erection of 149^, in Bishop Elphinstone's Foundation of 1505, or in Bishop

Dunbar's Confirmation of 1531 : such being apparently regarded as part of the common law " of Universities {v. " Stellung des Rectors innerhalb der Universitat in Denifle, pp. 106-132, 181-192). In Dunbar's Charter four " procuratores nationum " appear among the electors of

the principal, canonist, civilist, mediciner, subprincipal and grammarian : but the nations are not defined. The Rector is enjoined to hold an annual Visitation of the College " cum consilio et avisamento quatuor proborum virorum magistrorum dicte Universitatis a dicta Universitate " eligendorum ; the origin of the Rector's Assessors. " " " According to the Nova Fundatio (see Appendix II.)

In the first extant account of the election of a Rector (30th June, 1634) it will be seen that the Nations are styled Aberdeen (which becomes Mar in 1640), Angus, Moray, Lothian ; but the Procurators seem to be elected by the Masters (i6th November, 1640). The boundaries of the Nations are given in Middleton's Appendix to Spotswood (1677), which contains the earliest detailed description of the Aberdeen

Universities. Aberdeen included the shires of Aberdeen and Banff ; Angus, those of Angus and Mearns Moray, all north of the Spey Lothian, the rest of Scotland. election of 1856. ; ; Cf.

John Ker's handwriting, on p. 100 of the Parchment Chartulary. (O. C, xli. 22.) The reference is obviously to the first Rector and Vicar of the Church of S. Maria ad Nives, founded by Bishop Elphinstone, under a Bull from Pope Alexander VI. of date 20th February, 149^-

1801, January 3. In connection with the admission of Dr. Jack as subprincipal, Professor Ogilvie protested " that the mode of electing the Rector has been intro-

duced by intrigue and the compromise of party interests, and tho' it may be under-

stood to confer an honorary and titular office of a very equivocal kind, it cannot invest the person so elected with those essential powers and privileges which Bishop Elphingston meant to entrust only to a constitutional Rector chosen by

the whole body of the Suppositi as in Paris. To suppose this is indeed a mockery and a travesty of the Founder's manifest intention. That under cover of this supposition the College Meetings have during the last fifty years ventured on various proceedings in the management of the College Estate, and in the RECTORS. 17

concerns of the Bursars, which no Rector chosen by the Suppositi would have suffered to pass unrescinded. That therefore the present mode of Election ought to be annulled, and that genuine constitution of the University, to which alone the provisions of the Foundation Charter of King's College refer, or can be applied, ought to be restored." This protest seems to have had no adherents.

" October 29, 1816. " Convened—The Principal, Dr. Dauney, Dr. Macpherson, Mr. Bentley, Mr. Paul and Mr. Macpherson. " The members . . . taking into consideration that this is the day appointed

for the election of Rector and Assessors . . . and David Cromar having been sent to Dr. Jack's house for the minute book, Dr. Jack called out Dr. Dauney into the adjoining room, and the remaining members after waiting for a considerable time were informed by David Cromar on his return that the Principal desired him to say that there was no meeting. Thereafter the members to whom this was intimated, having taken into consideration that a meeting regularly con\'ened for the despatch of important business at which they had intromitted with the mortification funds to a considerable extent, and at which they had annually for many years exercised their rights of election in the appointment of Rector and Assessors, could not be dissolved by such a proceeding as had just been had recourse to without a regular record of the res gestae, they unanimously called Dr. Macpherson as senior member to the chair, and drew up this minute, at the same time declining to proceed for the present in the elections for which they were legally convened, as being unwilling to involve the respectable gentlemen who might be proposed, in the disputes of the society. (Signed) " Hugh Macpherson, Praeses." " November 16, 1816. " Convened —The Principal, Professor Ogilvie, Dr. Dauney and Dr. Banner- man, in consequence of a notice officially intimated to all concerned from the

Principal fixing this day for the election of a Rector and Assessors : the nomination of the present office-bearers expiring on the eighteenth current. The Principal and professors above named attended in the meeting-room at twelve

o'clock the hour appointed ; but altho' the College servant was sent by the Principal to the other resident professors, requiring their immediate attendance, none of them thought proper to make their appearance, or so much as to return

an answer. The Principal and professors who attended having waited till half- an-hour after one o'clock, and there being no prospect of the attendance of an}' other member, those present in place of proceeding to a regular election were

of opinion that all circumstances considered it was most expedient to declare it to be their understanding that the Lord Rector and Assessors now in office shall be requested to continue their functions for the ensuing year, and the Principal was authorised to intimate this resolution to the gentlemen concerned accordingly. (Signed) " William Jack, Principal."

It was further agreed that Graduates should keep their names on the

ment of £1 IS. ; and should meet every two years for the election of University

Officers ; voting to be by voting papers, per capita for the Rector and Assessors, per nationes for the Procurators. The limits of the Nations were fixed thus: Moray ^ the Synod of Moray.

PRINCIPALS.'

c. 1500. Mr. Hector Boece (Boyes, Bois, Boethius).

Professor Thomas Gordon writes of Boece in his MS. Collections : " He received his degree of Doctor in the same College after he was Princi-

pal of it [Town Council Reg., 5th Sept., 1528]. He was born in Dundee, and

' educated in the University of Paris. Besides his ' History of the Scots —which is printed by lodocus Badius at Boece's own expences, bearing a prefatory address to the nobility of Scotland by Alexander Lion, Cantor of Murray, dated

at Paris, 1527, in which he calls Boece, ' communis nobis preceptor'— Boece also wrote, 'Vitae Episcoporum Aberdonensium,' dedicated to Bishop Gavin

Dunbar, 20th March, 1522. Dunbar stiles him, ' Hector Boece, Principal and

Licentiate in Theology '. ' Principalis Pontificalis CoUegii Aberdonensis,' 5th June, 1516. He subscribes the Foundation, loth June, 1531. As to Boece's

pedigree, see Lord Hailes, Vol. H. p. 161, Note. Hector Boece says, 1. 15, col. 323, 'proavus meus Hugo Boetius cujus pater ad Duplin occubuerat, Baro Drisdale '. Lord Hailes finds a Sir Humphrey de Bois in Walsing. 132, or Ford

13, 27, among the slain at the Battle of Lochmaben, 1332, and conjectures him to be Boece's ancestor, he having by mistake said Duplin for Lochmaben.

Drisdale is a territory in Annandale where Lochmaben lies, and the Drisdales are to be found. He is said to be descended of the Boettis of Panbride in Angus. In the Life of Bishop Elphingston he mentions that this prelate

' called him from Paris while teaching Philosophy in Collegio Montis acuti ' (of Montague) to be the first professor of the liberal arts in his newly-instituted

' Schola generalis Aberdonensis '. Boece calls himself at that time, ' adole- scens,' and modestly speaks of his own small proficiency in letters at the time he was set to instruct others. He mentions among his acquaintances at the University, Erasmus, Joannes Major, Pat. Panter, and several others. The canons of the cathedral received him with the kindest regard. At his arrival, he sent for his condisciple at Paris, William Hay, who was first Subprincipal, and in the end succeeded Boece as Principal. He gives the names of several men of letters, with their character, that were sent forth at this time from the University."

Elsewhere, "continued six years and resigned his place anno 1552, because of his infirmity proceeding from long sickness ". These contradictory statements are equally inaccurate. Bisset resigned the principalship into the hands of

Pope Paul III., who, 26th February, 154^, nominated William Cranston (0. C,

xliii. 12) ; but the latter never acted. Bisset again resigned into the hands of

Pope Julius III., who, 20th February, i55i|, nominated Alexander Anderson (O. C, xliii. 12).

his time fell out the Reformation, wherein together with all the masters he was deposed, anno 1569, by a visitation appointed by the General Assembly, the

Earl of Murray, Regent, beirtg personally present at the deposition. . . . He lived several years obscurely in Aberdeen after his deposition, and died there." Orem. '" This man was a great scholar and a subtil disputant, but no great friend to the College. For the hatred he bare to the reformed religion, he alienated

some of the College revenues, destroyed many of its writings and evidences, whereby many lands and other rents belonging to S. Germains are quite lost sold the ornaments, books, and other furniture belonging to the College.

follow it as a calling, but God otherwise disposing, in 1569 he was made Principal of the College of Aberdeen, where by his diligent teaching and good government he revived learning, and gained many over from superstition. He was a good Poet, Mathematician, Divine, Lawyer and Physician. He died in the forty-fifth year of his age, and was buried in the College Church of Aberdeen, 20th October, 1583. He, with Mr. Andrew Melvil, had committed to them the reformation of the Foundations of Aberdeen and Glasgow. He procured the College the gift of the Deanery of Aberdeen."

Persons thrust out: Dr. William Guild, principal; Alexander Middleton, subprincipal; Patrick Gordon, George Middleton, professors of philosophy. The commis-

sioners at that time did not unanimously agree whom to put in ; therefore they

ordered the latter to continue till his place were supplied by another. Shortly after, the masters restored the principal in despite of all opposition to his place.

But, anno 1651, general Monk sent five colonels to reform the college : colonels Fenwick, Moseley, Owen, Disborough and Smith. At this Reformation both principal and subprincipal were again turned out. Gilbert Rewle was instituted

in room of the latter ; and the place of the former conferred upon, " 1652, Mr. John Row, " An independent minister in Edinburgh, a person well seen in the Latin and

other well-disposed persons, whose names are written in a register called ' Album Amicorum Col. Regii Aberdon'." Middleton. " Thereafter he went to New Aber-

deen, and took up a private school ; for he had laid nothing up to maintain himself when he was out of place, and therefore lived by keeping the said school, and for the most part by charity. At last, he went to Kinellar, and staid with Mr. John Mercer, his son-in-law, and daughter; where at last he died, and was interred in the West end of the church of Kinellar, in the churchyard."

call. Note, during the time of this violence, those of the Presbyterian persua- sion, being excluded violently from the parish church, attended worship, after the Presbyterian form, in one of the Prebend's manses, called Toryleith's house, Mr. Sharp in the mean time useing the service of the Church of England in the parish church, where he was attended by Dr. Middleton, Mr. Black and most of the masters. This matter became a Justiciary process at Edinburgh at the instance of the Queen's Advocate, and Mr. Black was condemned to a quarter

Rev. William Mackenzie, Old Aberdeen, Mr. Andrew Jopp and Mr. John

Watson, advocates : nominated by Dr. Dauney, and supported by the other four members aforesaid). Mr. Robert Eden Scott was voted for by the Princi- pal, the Rector, Dr. Macpherson, Mr. Bentley, Mr. Scott and four Procurators (Alexander Fraser of Fraserfield, James Mercer of Achnacant, Lieut.-Col.

Francis Stewart of Lessmurdy, and Mr. Alexr. Shand, advocate : nominated by the Principal, and supported by the other four members aforesaid). The

Principal gave a casting vote in each election ; but the vote of the Rector in the election of Procurators was protested against by Dr. Dauney and those

who adhered to him ; and this view was upheld by Counsel (R. Dundas, Robert Blair, F. Jeffrey—Min. of 3rd January, 1801). 1817, May 27. Hugh Macpherson, M.D. Senior Regent. Nominators: Lieut.-Col. Forbes, Old Aberdeen, Mar; William

Dingwall Fordyce of Techmuiry, Angus ; Hugh Gordon, Aberdeen, Moray ; Alexander Bannerman, Aberdeen, Lothian. Dr. Macpherson had been elected to the same post, 23rd November, 1815, by himself, Professors Bentley, Paul,

Tulloch and the same four Procurators ; but on 26th May, 1817, the members unanimously agreed "to retrace their steps in order that hereby all differences may be terminated, and the irregular proceedings corrected which, in the course of the late elections, have taken place among all concerned ". The Principal (Jack), Mr. Ogilvy, Dr. Dauney and Dr. Bannerman absented themselves from the meeting of 23rd November, 1815. On 26th October, these four

had proposed to fill up the vacant Regency and Professorship of Moral Philosophy

by the appointment of Mr. Patrick Forbes, minister of Boharm : Dr. Jack to retain the Subprincipalship, in virtue of which alone he sat at the meeting, as the Chancellor had not yet formally admitted him as Principal. Professors Macpherson, Bentley, Paul and Tulloch voted for the Rev. Daniel Dewar, minister of the College Church in Aberdeen. The votes being equal, Dr. Jack offered a casting vote in favour of Mr. Forbes, but this was protested against. Before next meeting, on i8th November, when Dr. Jack, now admitted Principal by the Chancellor, had intended to admit the Rev. Patrick Forbes, Dr. Daniel Dewar had obtained from the Court of Session an interim interdict against his so doing. On iith July, 1816, Lord Ordinary Pi'milly declared the interdict perpetual, finding " that the Charter of 1531, being the second foundation of the College by Bishop Elphinstone [Dunbar] as affected or explained by the usage which prevailed, must furnish the rule for the has determining present question ; and in respect neither the Charter nor the usage has ever recognised among the founded persons of whom the College consists a Subprincipal separate or distinct from the Magister Artium or Regent to whose office the appointment of Subprincipal is annexed by the Charter, finds that by his resignation of the Moral Philosophy chair, Dr. Jack ceased to be Subprincipal, and had no right to vote in' the election of his successor to the chair of the Philosoph}' class; finds that it is therefore unnecessary to determine whether Dr. Jack would

have been entitled to a casting vote in the election of the Professor, if he had 44 UNIVERSITY AND KING'S COLLEGE.

an elective vote ". The contention of the opposite party was that the junction of offices was effected only by the Nova Fundatio, which had never been recognised as statutory. The dispute gave rise to much bad feeling. (C/. under

" The said Mr. Strachan was the best scholar that ever was in the College. But the Cants and the rest of the clergy in Aberdeen had

prejudice at him, because he was a royalist ; and because his uncle, Sir

John Strachan, was with King Charles II. At last, the said Strachan was to

graduate his scholars of the magistrand class ; and after he had printed his theses, and distributed them, and the day appointed for the graduation in the common school of the College, then Mr. Andrew Cant, regent in Marischall College, and the rest of the clergy, accused Mr. Strachan for his theses, and said he had set down popish positions in them. But Mr. Strachan told them

he would defend all that was inserted in his thesis ; whereupon the diet of graduation was altered, and a new diet to be at S. Machar's Church in Old Aberdeen. When the day came, there was a great confluence of gentry from all places of the country, who came to S. Machar's Church. Thence came over the Cants, and Mr. Menzies, ,and all the rest of the clergy of Aberdeen, and with them Mr. Alexander Cant, minister of Nether Banchory, and placed themselves in the Marquess of Huntly's loft, opposite to the pulpit; for Mr. Strachan had taken the pulpit, and no person with him but Professor Douglas, who sat on the latron, and Principal Row sat alone in the college-loft. Mr.

Strachan began with a prayer, and after had a long harangue ; which, being ended, he invited them to impugn his theses. Then they began to object, and

he answered their arguments readily ; but to his solutions thej' all answered una voce, which made a great confusion in the disputations. Yet learned men

said that Mr. Strachan had the better of it that day. This dispute continued

long; at last, when it was ended, and the people dismissed, coming out of the church door, Mr. Strachan accuses young Mr. Andrew Cant, regent, for some reflecting answer he had given him in the time of the dispute, and would have

trampled him under his feet, if the gentry had not interposed, and taken Mr. Strachan away with them. For Mr. Strachan was a gentleman, and a pretty man both in parts and in body, and undervalued all the Cants. His father was Mr. Alexander Strachan, minister of Logie Durno, and parson of Fetterneir.

Before the dispute, Mr. Strachan graduated his class ; and the Earl of Aber-

deen, who became chancellor of Scotland, was first graduated ; then the rest. And immediately thereafter, Mr. Strachan demitted in favours of Mr. George Gordon, with consent of the College, because he could not live at peace with the Covenanters.

studied physick. Then he came home to see his father and his friends ; and after that he went again abroad, turned popish, and died abroad, etc." Orcm. 1651, Mr. Gilbert Rule. The accounts of the Bishops' Rents are signed in 1G50 by Patrick Gordon,

" John Gordon, provost of Aberdeen, finds fault with Mr. George Liddel, professor of mathematicks in the Marischal College, turned him out of his "post, and caused affix an edict upon the most patent door of the said college gate, inviting all men to come and dispute for the said Mr. Liddel's post, assuring them of detur digniori. But the said Mr. Liddel applied to the King's advocate, who assured him of the

post ; so that there was no diet appointed for the dispute. One Dr. Thomas

Bower came from London to dispute for it ; being disappointed, he protested against the magistrates of Aberdeen, for cost, skaith, and damage, etc. There- after, he applied to the Scots parliament holden at Edinburgh, anno 1707; and got 40^. fixed upon the town of Aberdeen, and 10/. sterling upon the town of Kirkaldie, to be professor of mathematicks in the King's College of Aberdeen. At that time the magistrates of Aberdeen were seeking a gift of the pennies, and said. They would be content to pay Dr. Bower the said 40^. if the parliament would give them the Old Town, Seaton and Spital, which was granted them. And so they fixed 40^ sterling on these towns. But the inhabitants of Old Aberdeen complained much for laying such a taxation on them, having never had pennies formerly. And, to free the inhabitants and brewers of Old Aber- deen from being troubled with New Aberdeen collectors of the pennies, the

magistrates of Old Aberdeen, viz. : Mr. Alexander Eraser, regent at the King's College, Mr. William Gordon, Kintore, William Baxter and Alexander Troup, engaged and contracted with the magistrates of New Aberdeen, to pay them

yearly the said 40/. ; but this contract they made allenarly of themselves, without consent of the town or council of Old Aberdeen. But afterwards, the Old Town brewers suspended them, because Dr. Bower was gone to London, and did not officiate here in the said College as professor of mathematicks. Yet, notwithstanding the aforesaid magistrates of Old Aberdeen, who made this contract with the magistrates of New Aberdeen, without consent aforesaid, dismissed the suspension, and made them liable, by a decree of the Lords of 76 UNIVERSITY AND KING'S COLLEGE.

Session, to pay the yearly pennies and expences. At last, anno 1717, Dr. Bower demitted whereupon the town of New Aberdeen's collectors discharged ; the magistrates of Old Aberdeen of the said contract and pennies (which they paid yearly to them before the said Dr. Bower's dismission), July, 1719." Orcm. " Dr. Thomas Bower had been nominated by the College as Professor of Mathematics, having been serviceable to the Scots Parliament in calculations relating to the equivalent; upon which account they recommended him to

Queen Ann. . . . Admitted May, 1707 [Minute not now extant]. . . . The mathematical class having turned to little account, after a few years' trial, Dr.

Bower returned to London and abandoned his charge, at first without formally

resigning it. But afterwards he resigned it anno 1717, and the Magistrates of New Aberdeen discharged the above contract, anno 1719. Dr. Thomas Bower

died at London, and was buried in Chelsea churchyard, where there is a gravestone with an inscription over him." Gordon. 1732, October 31. Mr. Alexander Rait.

Alexander Murray, M.A., 1746; D.D., 1784; died at Philadelphia, 14th September, 1793, having by will, dated 6th September, bequeathed the residue of his estate (subject to his widow's liferent) " to my venerable cousin, the Rev. Dr. John Chalmers, and to the four Regents and Professors of my Alma Mater, the King's College and University of Aberdeen, in Scotland, and to their successors in office, for the encouragement, in the first place, of a clergyman to preach a course of lectures in the College Church on Sunday mornings, in the time of their Winter Sessions, on such subjects as they think fitted to tincture their students with just and liberal notions of pure and undefiled religion and virtue, without descending to party distinctions and controversy. This donation is also intended to remove, in some measure, the uncommon grievance and indecorum of their processions to their parish church in an inclement season. In this more unprejudiced critical age, it were to be wished that the famous Seminary would agree upon a form of public prayers and worship, with or without responses and instrumental music, to be used at these lectures, as is common in all other countries, to inure youth to the greater solemnity and order. . . . Two of the lectures at least I appoint to be printed, published and presented to the Trustees by the Lecturer every year." Mrs. Murray died 28th May, 1811. On 26th October, the Senatus agreed to appoint Mr. Paul lecturer, but he declined to act, gth November, owing to differences of opinion in that body. Some doubt having arisen as to whether Dr. Murray intended the non- Regent Professors to act as Trustees, the question was submitted to Mr. Moir of Scotstoun as arbitrator, who decided in the negative. After considerable delays, owing in great measure to the strained relations between this country and the United States, the amount of the bequest was placed in the hands of the Trustees, yielding an annual income of about £igo. The lecturers appointed during the first two Sessions had no salary, the money being placed at the disposal of the Senatus for the repair of the buildings. 78 UNIVERSITY AND KING'S COLLEGE.

' The Scottish Universities Commissioners (1858) by an Ordinance (No. 6, Aberdeen, No.

This Ordinance was petitioned against by upwards of 200 graduates of King's College, and was disallowed by the Queen in Council, on the ground that fifty years had not elapsed since the death of Mrs. Murray. But the Commissioners subsequently obtained an Act of Parliament (25 and 26 Vict.,

Cap. 28), empowering them to alter the conditions affecting the bequest ; and by a new

Ordinance (No. 74, Aberdeen, No. 34), they re-enacted the scheme described above. — —

^ The origin and nature of the joint Medical School is made clear by the following extract from the Minutes of King's College : " ()th July, 1818. " Said day the Medical Committee gave in their report, which was approved of, and the tenor whereof follows: Aberdeen, May i6, 1818.—At a Meeting of the Committees of King's and Marischal Colleges, to arrange a plan for the establishment of a Medical School, held at Marischal College, i6th May, the following regulations were suggested, as most consistent with the constitution of the Colleges, and best adapted to promote the institution, which, under the joint patronage of the two Universities, may attain a greater character, and be more extensively useful, than it could if only supported by one of them.

" I. Both Universities to have equal power over the Medical School. "2. Courses of Lectures to be given, during the Winter Session, on the following subjects : —Anatomy, Animal Economy, Surgery, Practice of Physic, Theory of Physic, Materia Medica, Clinical Medicine and Midwifery, and a course of Lectures on Botany during the Summer.

" 3. Lecturers on these subjects to be appointed or confirmed before the ensuing Session, or when the state of the School shall be thought to require this nomination.

" 4. As the appointment of the Lecturers by a general meeting of both Colleges, having no corporate capacity, might not be deemed valid by the separate Faculties, it is proposed that the nomination to the Lectureships shall belong alternately to each, neither appointing twice successively to the same Lectureship, and that the appointment thus made by one College

shall be confirmed by the other ; both Faculties entering a regulation in their minutes, binding themselves to this mode of alternate nomination and mutual confirmation. "5. Lecturers having been named by Marischal College on Anatomy, Surgery, and 84 UNIVERSITY AND KING S COLLEGE.

Materia Medica, before the present plan of joint patronage was thought of, it is recommended that these appointments should in the meantime be confirmed by King's College, and that the first nomination to the vacant Lectureships should proceed from the Faculty of King's College, and be confirmed by Marischal College.

" 6. In case the Professors of Medicine of the College should at any time wish to give

Courses of Lectures, it will be advisable to reserve the Theory and Practice of Physic for them, the choice of either subject lying with the Professor that first undertakes the duty of lecturing. The appointment of Lecturers on these subjects may therefore be considered as ad interim.

" 7. Should any of the Lecturers allow a Session to pass without giving a regular

Course, his appointment is to be declared void, unless he shall have been prevented from doing so by bad health, or such reasons as may be deemed satisfactory by the College with which the next nomination to his lectureship lies.

" 8. After the first nominations, when a vacancy is to be supplied in any of the established

Courses, the College whose turn it is, shall appoint a Lecturer within six months after the

vacancy has occurred ; two meetings of the Faculty having been held, at a month's interval,

to consider the best mode of supplying it, and the claims of different candidates. "g. To facilitate the arrangements necessary in opening and conducting the different

Courses, it is recommended that a Standing Committee be appointed by each of the Faculties,

to co-operate in superintending and promoting the objects of the Institution ; and that a Report of the state of the Medical School be made at least once a year, by this Joint Committee, to a General Meeting of the Faculties of both Universities. " 10. An equal number of Classes to be taught at each University, if required, and deemed expedient by either. In the meantime, as a room has been built at Marischal College for the Anatomical Lectures, and as the great difficulties attending the due supply of prepara- tions, etc., would be increased by changing the place of teaching, the Anatomical Course may be given at Marischal College; the other Courses either at King's or Marischal Colleges, as may be agreed on by the Committee."

lOn iith April, 1839, the Senatus unanimously resolved, inter alia, "that all connection with the Marischal College in reference to the Medical School shall cease from and after the close of the Session," it being " inexpedient and even dangerous to maintain any further intercourse with Marischal College respecting the Medical School, when the letter and spirit of the original agreement have been so palpably violated ". The Marischal College Senatus issued a pamphlet of Extracts from their Records. The Mediciner of King's College, Dr. W.

the said Dr. Urqwhart to examine him and prescribe such tryalls as are usuall,

Afterwards he was examined by Dr. Urqwhart, for the space of two hours or thereby, in all the cheif parts of Medicine, in all which the Doctor declared and all the masters judged that he gave good satisfaction, and thought him worthy of the degree which he was asking.

3. "There shall further be laid before the Senatus the annexed form of certificate filled up and signed by at least two respectable physicians, regular Graduates in Medicine, known either personally or by reputation to some of the members of the University. And the Senatus, being duly sensible that the interest of the public and the reputation of Medical Science, no less than the honour of the University, are intimately connected with the character and qualifications of those on whom Medical degrees are conferred, express their confidence in the honour of those Doctors of Medicine who may be requested to grant attestations in favour of applicants, that they will give full attention to the tenor of the subjoined formula:— " ' That . . . residing at . . . has had a Classical Education and has made

respectable Literary acquirements in general ; that he has attended Lectures on Anatomy and Surgery, Chemistry and the Theory and Practice of Medicine, and well acquainted with Medical qualified Science ; that his moral character is irreproachable ; that he is in our judgment well in every respect to have the honour of the highest degree of Medicine conferred upon him ; and that we can certify the above from full knowledge. This we declare on our honour and our conscience.' Dr. Bannerman protested " against the setting aside of the former and constant precedent of the College for the admission of Graduates in Medicine, inasmuch as the same must ever be found the only proper mode of procedure on such occasions, so long as the

THE NOVA FUNDATIP.

" Quanquam Almae Matri aedes suae intactae, et Archiva quoque integra

manserint," writes Professor John Ker in his Donaides, p. i8, "haud leva damnum passa est sub instauratae religionis tempus : abrogata optima celeberrimi Elphin- stonii Institutione Universitatis primaeva, et substituta Institutione nova [Funda- tioncm Novam vulgo vocant) quae prodiit An. 1592,^ sub hoc titulo, CoUegium Regale Aberdonense institutum, reformatum et restitutum, in modum Erectionis novae paulo ante prescriptae Academiis Andreanae et Glascuanae et unde maximam partem exscripta videtur Erectio Collegii Mareschallani anno sequenti 1593. Institutio haec nova (cujus Auctor fuit David Rhaetus, Coll. Regii Principalis) eo sane multo melior quod Papanos tollat ritus: in aliis autem plerisque omnibus, veterem Elphinstonianam praeferendam censemus. Utramque fusius collatam dedimus, Ath. Aherd." -

The text of the"Nova Fundatio" referred to on pages 6,24,50, 93, has not hitherto been published, either in the Reports of the various Commissions, or in the Fasti Aber- donenses.

of Scottlande ; and it went near to be ratifyd in parliament, had it not been opposed by Secretair Elphinstoune, a great statesman, who in favours of bishopp William Elphinstouns

memorye (both of them being cadetts of the familye of Shelms) said it was no reason for to

perverte the founders meaning, so far as it could stand with the reformed relligione. So

the new draught was stifled in the birth ; and that paper coming afterwards into the handes

of bishopp Patricke Forbesse, with a sollicitatione for him to set it anew on foote, he threw

it in to the fyre, wher it ended ; and instantly, being chancellor of the Universitye, caused " sett the old institution on foote, as farr as it could subsist with the protestant relligione

[Supplication and protest given in to the Lords Visitors. 12th April.] "We rector principall subprincipail grammarier regents and officeris and bursaris of the kings colledge of Old Aberdene wnderstanding that your lordships, be wertue of ane letter purchased from his majestic, are to wisite the colledge, humblie desyres that your lordships

" I. Will take to your considderationes that ther is tuo letters written be his majestic for the wisitation of the colledge, wherof the first urges the establishing of the new fundation made by king James of happy memorie, the second of the old made by bishope Elphingstone. The caus of this contrarietie is the diversitie of informa- tiones giwen to his majestic and specified in his letters. The information giwen for purchaseing the first letter is, that his majesties father of blessed memorie hade mortified to the colledge faire rents farr exceeding the rents mortified by the bishop, and that he made ane nevi' fundation conteining the number of the members, lawes, ordour of doctrine and discipline to be obserwed thairin, and that this new foundation wes subscrywed be the king councell bishope and members of the colledge, and that it wes ratified in parliament in all the heads and clauses conteined into it, and that ewer since it wes framed we hawe been in continuall practice therof till of late it wes secretlie destroyed and burnt be privat persones without any warrand of superiour powers. Wpon this narrative his majestic most justlie hes commanded your lordships to take exact tryall of the destroyers of his fatheris fundation, and to restoir and reestablish the samen. The information giwen to his majestie for purchaseing the second letter is, that the masters of the colledge being persones subject to censures of deprivation for thair malversatione, intends to owerthrow the colledge and priviledges thairof, and to that effect hes forged ane new foundation to themselues; and that thair is no other true foundation but that of bishop Elphing- 332 APPENDIX. stones, and that no other foundation was ewer ratified in parliament. Rebus sic stantibus his majestie could not bot ordaine bishope Elphingstones foundation to be keeped, so that his majestie in both his letters hath showin himselfe an most just and equitable prince.

" 2. Seeing that both his majesties letters being contrarie ane to another cannot be put to execution, we intreat your lordships to wey and consider the weritie of the tuo informations wheron they ar grounded, that his majestie be not vilefied, nor his most religious and just intentions disapointed. "3. We humblie supplicate your lordships to considder that no other letter can be justlie followed bot that which is grounded upon the true narrative, and if the other which is founded upon misformation be put to execution, the masters and members of the coUedge haweing intress will hawe just reason to complaine. His majestie hes set doune in his lettres the seuerall informations for no other end bot that your lordships may ponderate them and judge accordinglie. If his majestie wold wryt tuo sewerall letters to ane judge, the on ordaining him to execute such an man, becaus he is informed that he hes committed ane murder, the other that he trouble him not, becaus he is informed that he is not guiltie of any cryme, it is most certaine that the judge haweing sufficientlie tryed the man's innocencie will newer adventure to take his lyfe upon the kings letter grounded upon wrong information, otherwayes he wrongs the king, offends God, and wounds his own conscience. "4. We beseech your lordships to considder that the informations giwen be our adversaries for the establishing of the old foundation ar altogidder falss and forged, for neither hawe we nor any of us forged any new foundatioune to ourselues, nether hawe we any intention to destroy the universitie and priviledges thairof, nether ar we wnder any censures of deprivation for malversation, as your lordships will find be just tryall and examinatione ; nether is it true that we hawe no foundation ratified in parliament, as we shall shew heirafter. " 5. We intreat your lordships to considder that our informations presented to his majestie for establishing the new foundation ar most true in all points, for first that king James of blessed memorie did mortifie fair revenews to the colledge, it is evident be three charters of his mortifications made anno 1574, 1579, 1586, quhairof we hawe the originall. Secondlie, that he made an new foundation we shall prowe

by witnesses insert, and sundrie others who hes both sen and red it. Thirdlie, that the same foundatioune wes ratified in parliament the act of parliament holden anno Domini 1597 will testifie. Fourthlie, that the originall of this foundation wes secretlie destroyed and burnt be privat persones hawing no publict warrand, we ofter to prove presentlie befor your lordships. The which things being proven and werified, your lordships cannot in equitie refuse to obey his majesties letter and establish**************king James foundatione."

[Answers to the supplication and protest, given in 13th April.]

" X. Imprimis, it is notorlie knowen to all Europe concerning that most excellent THE NOVA FUNDATIO. 333

kmg, James the sext, quhat learning and knowledge was in his awin royall persone, and how gryt a favourer he was of all literature, and how far set for propagatione thairof; and to imagine or impute to his majestic such barbaritie and impietie at least informalitie as finding ane universitie compleit, and a colledge consisting of fourtie-tuo foundit members, whose rentes (except the chaplainries) forsaide could

newir fall in his majesties hands; yet to haue maid such destructione and desola- tione by a pretendit new fundatione, as to haue abrogate the haill professiones, and appropriate all the old rentes and his owin new mortificationes to sexteine persones onlie of fourtie-tuo, viz., a principall subprincipall thrie regentes a grammarier and 'ten bursers, adding unto them four new creat members, viz., ane oeconomous, ane cuike, the principall and subprincipall, tuo boyes, cassiring not onlie the professours of lawes and medicine, bot also thrie bursers in divinitie and thrie in philosophic, wha war the right awneris, and quho wer nevir called nor conveined befoir a judge, or consentit to such alienationes of thair rent, which could neuir haue beine disponit or fall in the kinges hands wtherwayes.

" 2. As for the alledgit tenor of this new fundatione, how ridiculous and vickid

the same is which is contenit in the copie producit, it appeares ; and first haueing no subscriptioncs of any wther foundit member bot the subprincipall and thrie regentes, whose consent can be of no awaill to a donatione maid to themselues for augmenting

thair owin stipends, and provyding unto thame new create servants, viz. : ane oeconomous ane cuike and tue boyes, neuir mentionat in the true fundatione, and that with exclusion of so many professores and burseis, far moir neccssarie foundit memberis of the universitie.

" 3. The bodie of this alledgit new fundatione has neither day dait place nor witnesses, and being called by the producers a chartour of fundatione and new gift,

yet it hes no scall nor ordeinit to be seallit, and is nathar transumit before a judge nor registrat in any authentike registre in this kingdome, but onlie a bair informall

copie ; which ar thinges most ridiculous and incompatible with such a publict ewident as the fundatione of such a famous colledge. The lyka judgement may be giwen upone that copie of the act of counsall alledgit subscriuit be his majestie at Aberdena 1592, which was ane tyme of gryt troubles and confusione in this land,

and wes done, sine causa cognitiona at partibus non auditis, if ewar it was done.

And for the alledgit aid and subscription of the generall assemblia, it specifies not quhat fundatione of the colledge of Aberdene was than approven, and may justlie be suspectit to be forgit, considering the dait therof anno 1593, at Edinburgh; for it is of veritia that ther wes no generall assemblie holdin at Edinburgh that yair, bot

at Dundie onlie, quhair thair wes no such act maid, as may be clairlia prowen b}' productione of the actes of the generall assemblies that yeir.

" 5. And for the cheife defect thairof it is not ratified by parliament. As for that few lynes of ane copie of a ratificatione producit, it is so generall that it mey be applyed to the last true foundatione published by bishope Gavine Dumbar, ordeineing the to same be revised, and makes no mentione of king James fundatione ; and

being applyit thairto also, it ratifies it onlie to be revised; and the said act being of lait producit in judgement, the lords of sessione thair decisione was that, forsameikie ;

334 APPENDIX. as the alledf^it fundation wes neuer revised reported nor ratified in parliament, albeit the principall thairof wer now extant (as it is lost by thair owin alledgance), yet the same to make no faith. This was the lords sentence anno 1636 in Marche.

" 6. How could it be possible, if the said king James haid so laitlie abefoir maid such a new fundation contrarie to the true originall, that he sould so s'oone become so oblivious of his owin deid, or so changable in short space, as in his parliament

1617 to make no mentione of his new fundatione ; bot on the contrarie to ratifie the old originall fundatione of the whole universitie maid by bischop Elphingstoune with authoritie of king James the fourt, quhairin the whole professiones of lawes and medicine etc. ar expreslie set doune, and ther priviledges ratified, to the utter over- throw of that alledgit new fundatione ; and theirefter in anno 1619 to direct a commissione under the gryt seall for reestablishing of all the saids professiones in doctrine discipline and stipends according to the originall fundation, whiche hes bein ewer in practise since about this tuentie yeires past in all governaments and visitatione of chancellaris and rectors, and admissione of members of this universitie, and

expeding of tacks and evidents of the samen ; and that so constantlie all this whyle that newir mentione hes beine maid, nor a scraipe of a pen to be producit according to that pretendit new fundatione.

"7. What preiudice it sould inferre to this universitie to retrinche the haill chiefe

members of it, and the power of conferring degreis in all superior faculties which hes bein in use this sewin scoir of yeires, and especiallie this tuentie yeires last bypast, as also in redacting ane universitie to a private schooll of philosophie, whose chanceller sould be electiue, quhairas the bischope of Aberdene by the originall

fundatione is perpetuall chanceller of that famous universitie ; and quhat necessitie

it would impose to all youthes for peregrinatioun to studie the lawes and medicine

which wtherwayes might be more safeiie and cheaplie taught at home : and quhat

impietie it wer to violate the first fundators letter will, and how by a lait act of parliament 1633 all mortificationes sould be applyit to the specificke use allanerlie of the mortifier, any man mey ewidentlie sie. "8. Lastlie, to considder theproducers transgressioun ; haueingtheradmissiones by the originall fundation, to disclaime the samen in that degrie as to obtrude ane erronious copie of ane contrarie new ane: We that ar professores and the pairtie offendit hes desyrit ane act upone the productione of that copie, that the daites thairof and tenour be neither alterit nor pairit, demanding of them who will byd be

this copie, and who saw the originall thairof, or can proue it to haue beine destrojat

by our late prelate, or to haue beine unjustlie destroyit; and since it had no witnesses

insert bot onlie the pairties, and since it conteinit four or fyw scheitt of paiper, with gryt varietie of articles and sanctiones, and is alledgit to haue beine lost moir than sextein yeires agoe, what judge sail admitt or quhat witnesses memorie may serve to prove verbatim et liniatim of whole contentes of such a lost and forlorne wreit

and for all the former considerationes if they mey not be compted forgers of this new fundation, and by so doing to be infringers of ther originall fundatione, and to haue iniured the sanctiones thairof, quhairby they ar called perjuri infames et

Jacobus sextus Dei gratia Scotorum Rex, Omnibus et singulis vere Christianis salutem. Cum ad pii p'rincipis curam et regii muneris solicitudinem pertineat non solum rempublicam ejusque partes rite constituere et ordinare, sed etiam si quid in his sit vel temporis vitio in deterius mutatum, vel negligentia collapsum, vel moribus labe- factum, id omne vel ad primam originem revocare, vel in meliorem statum restituere

et reformare ; cumque id in omnibus reipublicae partibus diligenter faciendum sit, tum maximum in ea quae ad juventutis honestam educationem pertinet, ac proinde reliquis sit initium et seminarium, adeo diligentem curam assiduamque operam desiderat, ut in hujus fere unius recta constitutione sita sit reipublicae salus et incolumitas, et in ejusdem neglectu lapsus et interitus ; ac cum maxime ea nos con- tendere deceat cum Divina Providentia nos iis temporibus ad reipublicae gubernacula produxerit, in quibus evangelii lucem (expulsis Papismi tenebris) Scotiae nostrae praelucere voluerit, nosque imprimis solicitos esse oporteat ut tantum beneficium ad posteros nostros propagetur, quod non alia ratione commodius fieri possit quam proba ejusmodi educatione et recta juventutis informatione. Nos idcirco regiam nostram curam et paternam solicitudinem ad banc tam utilem tamque necessariam Reipublicae nostrae partem extendere cupientes, post Andreanae et Glasguanae Academiae reformationem et institutionem a nobis ex consilio summorum virorum rite peractam et absolutam, Aberdonense etiam nostrum Regale Collegium non exiguum Reipublicae nostrae in partibus regni nostri borealibus, in Uteris et moribus recte instituendis seminarium partim nunc primum instituendum et fundandum partim reformandum et restituendum omnino vero ordinandum et instituendum 336 APPENDIX.

quam optimo fieri possit modo, ex summorum etiam virorum consilio existimavimus. Et quamvis a majoribus nostris Episcoporum Aberdonensium consilio hujus praeclari operis jacta sunt non paenitenda fundamenta, tamen cum illud seculum multa toleraret, quae his nostris temporibus cum clara Evangelii luce non conveniunt, cumque exigui tenuesque sumptus, tunc qui pro temporis ratione alendis illius Collegii membris destinati fuerunt, in hac praetiorum commutatione iisdem sustentandis nullo pacto sufficere valeant, operae praetium duximus huic nostro Gymnasio novis proventibus a nobis munifice aucto, earn legem praescribere quae Dei gloriae, Ecciesiae saluti, Reipublicae, communique nostrorum commodo, ac denique his nostris euditis temporibus optime inservire posse videatur. Primum igitur ne huic nostro Gymnasio sumptus et impensa desint, quaecunque a majoribus nostris Gulielmo Elphinstone Episcopo Aberdonensi, seu aliis quibusvis ante nos tributa et concessa sunt, ea omnia rata habemus approbamus et nostra authoritate confirmamus, et quantum in nobis est damus de novo, viz., totas et integras rectorias et vicarias ecclesiarum parochialium de Glenmuick et Abergar- daine, de Slaines et Furvie, de Aberluthnot et de Snau, cum omnibus decimis earundem, fructibus, proficuis, redditibus, emolumentis, devoriis, mansis, glebis, terris ecclesiasticis et pertinentibus earundem quibuscunque jacentibus in diocesibus Aber- donensi et Sancti Andreae, et vicecomitatibus Aberdonensi et Kincardinensi respective. Item omnes et singulas terras de Drumlagair, item terras de Bannakettle, Adiell, Berrihill, Collynie, et Andett, croftas quasdam jacentes apud Aberdene, jacentes in comitatibus de Bamf et Aberdene respective. Item omnes reditus subsequentes, viz., viginti libras de baronia de Balhelvie, novemdecim mercas de aquis nostris regiis de Bamf, duodecim libras sex solidos et octo denarios de terris de Oord, Mombray, Blairshinnie et aliis vicinis terris de Boyne, quinque libras de terris de Udach, quatuor libras de Pettie. Item annuos reditus et feudifirmas terrarum hospitalium Sancti Germani jacentium ubicunque intra fines regni Scotiae. Item terras in quibus situm est dictum Collegium, cum hortis et croftis adjacentibus, cum mansis et aedificiis Canonistae, Civilistae, Medici, et Grammatici, cum omnibus aliis et singulis decimis, terrae annuls reditibus, capellaniis, quibuscunque aliis proficuis, quae vel a majoribus nostris, ab episcopis Aberdonensibus vel aliis quibuscunque praedicto Collegio ante tempora nostra concessa, seu a dicto Collegio quovis modo possessa, prout in cartis et donationibus eorundem latius continetur. Quas omnes ratificamus, approbamus, et pro nobis et successoribus nostris perpetuo confirmamus. Sed quia, ut diximus, praedicti redditus et proventus non modo modici sint idoneum praeceptorum et studiosorum numerum alere, et tantam familiam sustentare in hac rerum omnium caritate et praetiorum commutatione non valebant, Nos nostra beneficentia ex consilio consiliariorum nostrorum eidem Collegio, Magistris, Praecep- toribus, et in eodem studiosis, caeterisque membris ejusdem quae post nominabuntur, dedimus, concessimus, incorporavimus, et ad manum mortuam dimisimus, necnon per praesentes damus, concedimus, incorporamus et ad manum mortuam perpetuo dimittimus, omnes redditus, fructus, decimas, decimas garbales, emolumenta. proventus, aedificia, terras, hortos, ecclesiasticas mansiones et glebas, earum proventus. aliaque quaevis pertinentia Ecciesiae Cathedrali \-eteris Abredoniae. quae est ecclesia ;

Item omnes decimas, reditus, proventus, Ecclesiae de Methlick, quae vocatur Rectoria et Vicaria de Methlick. Item Capel- lanias quas vocant de Vesthal et Falaroul, et trecentas illas mercas quas fratrum Carmelitarum Joannes Chrystison eidem Collegio reliquit. Item omnes annuos redditus, agros, aedificia pertinentia ad Capellaniam Mariae Magdalenae, occupata et possessa per quondam Magistrum loannem Kennedy, et omnes annuos redditus qui in communi pertinuerunt olim Capellaniae dicti Collegii, cum omnibus aliis terris, aedificiis, proventibus, decimis, annuis redditibus, feudifirmis, juribus, jurisdictionibus, ac quibuscunque debitis quae praedicto Collegio, Magistris, Regentibus, Bursariis vel membris, vel a majoribus nostris, vel a nobis sive consensu Regentium, sive consilii nostri, seu quovis modo, vel a superioris temporis Episcopis Aberdonensibus vel a quibusvis aliis hactenus fuerunt concessa, donata, vel quovis modo attributa, seu quaecunque dictum Collegium vel personae antehac fundati possident, possederunt, seu quovis modo possidere possint. Quae omnia regia nostra authoritate eidem Collegio membrisque in eo erigendis perpetuo mansura approbamus, ratificamus, et pro nobis, nostrisque successoribus in perpetuum confirmamus. Quo vero haec nostra sive majorum nostrorum liberalitas recte collocata intelligatur atque hi redditus a nobis nostro Collegio collati rite ad reipublicae Chris- tianae commodum impendantur, Volumus ut in hac parte resectis et amputatis superfluis omnibus et inutilibus quae vel ad personas et Collegii membra, vel ad alia officia muneraque pertinent, et iis omnibus antiquatis, quae vel nostris his temporibus non conveniunt, vel cum clara Evangelii luce (qua nunc per Dei gratiam regnum nostrum illustratur) minus congruunt, hoc nostrum nunc tandem reformatum et renovatum literatorum Collegium viginti duobus ordinariis vel residentibus personis constituatur, Gymnasiarcha quem Principalem vocant, quatuor Regentibus, quorum primus erit Subprincipalis, Praeceptore Grammatico, Oeconomo, duodecem pauperibus studentibus, duobus Servis, altero Principalis, altero Subprincipalis, et Coquo quorum singulos in suis muneribus obeundis sedulos esse volumus, et pro laboribus honoraria ac stipendia percipere, quo majori alacritate suis officiis invigilent, ac primum quidem omnes viginti duas personas, Preceptore Grammatico excepto, collegialiter vivere, hoc est intra septa Collegii simul et cibum sumere et dormire volumus. Gymnasiarcham autem, quem Principalem vocant, pium et probum hominem esse imprimis oportet, cui totum Collegium et singula illius membra subesse oporteat; cui in singulas Collegii nostri personas jurisdictionem committimus ordinariam. Is n sacris Uteris probe institutus, ad aperienda fidei mysteria et reconditos Divini Verbi thesauros idoneus, linguarum etiam gnarus et peritus sit oportet, imprimis vero UU 338 APPENDIX.

Hebraice et Syriace, cujus Professorem esse instituimus (linguam enim sacram ut par est promovere inter subditos nostros cupimus ut scripturarum fontes et mysteria rectius aperiantur). Itaque dicto nostro Gymnasiarchae committimus, quo sedulitatis exemplum toti Collegio sua diligentia subministret, ut in dies alternos horam saltern unam praelegendo impendat, quo tempore maxime erit opportunum, alternatim et per vices praelectionem Theologicam seligat ad explicandum Scripturarum recessus, alternatim vero linguam ipsam sacram auditoribus explicabit, cujus praelectioni

Regentes omnes et duorum supremorum [sic] interesse volumus ; die autem Sabbatino immunem a praelectionibus esse concedimus, quoniam totius septimanae ratio ei ab auditoribus exigenda est, et opera danda formandae ad Machariae parochii populum concionis (nam cum Collegium nostrum ex decimis et proventibus illius Ecclesiae partim sustentetur, exiguum esse duximus ut qui temporalia ministrant spiritualia percipiant, nec pane vitae quod est Dei verbum defraudentur) curam itaque quoad poterit diligentissimam adhibebit Gymnasiarcha ut tunc populum pascat et in recta vitae et morum disciplina contineat singulisque diebus dominicis adhortetur ad pietatem. Resideat vero in dicto Collegio neque inde pedem moveat ad longinquiorem aliquam profectionem, nisi re cum Rectore Academiae, Decano Facultatis et caeteris suis Collegis Regentibus communicata et venia impetrata graviori aliqua de causa, et ejusdem dicti Collegii commodo, nec ultra triduum, venia non impetrata absit. Quoties vero dictum Gymnasiarchae munus quovis modo vacare contigerit, Regentes qui pro tempore fuerint ejusdem vacationis denunciationem dicti Gymna- siarchae Electoribus ilico facere tenebuntur, ut illi certiores facti alium virum gravem et idoneum qui id muneris obeat sufficere possint, cujusquidem Electionis legittimum tempus erit intra sexaginta dies a denunciatione vacationis dicti muneris. Quod si subscripti Electores distulerint Electionem Gymnasiarchae, tum numerus eorum major, praescripto tempore sexaginta dierum jam exacto, electionem absolvet, idque intra quadraginta dies post exactos priores sexaginta. Examinatio et Electio dicti Gymnasiarchae ad Praefectum seu Primarium novi seu Theologici Collegii in Academia Andraeana, Cancellarium Universitatis- Aberdonensis qui est Episcopus Aberdonensis, Rectorem Universitatis, Decanum Facultatis, Subprincipalem Collegii, tres reliquos Regentes ejusdem Collegii, ita ut omnes tres unum tantummodo habeant suffragium, ministrum Ecclesiae Novae Aberdoniae, Gymnasiarcham Collegii Edinensis. Et quemcunque hi omnes aut eorum pars major, una cum Cancellario et uno ex duobus dictis Gymnasiarchis Andraeano et Edinensi, consentientibus votis in unum elegerint,reliquis absentibus et ad diem indictum ubi legittime admoniti fuerint,

non comparentibus, illius rata erit Electio. At si nullus praedictorum Gymnasiarch- arum duorum adfuerit et consenserit, irrita sit Electio. Quamquidem examinationem, electionem et admissionem procedere volumus Edicto publico valvis Collegii Aber- donensis et Ecclesiarum tarn veteris quam novae Urbis per Regentes affixo supra praemonitione triginta dierum ad minimum. Insuper dicti Regentes suo edicto

Sanctandraeanos, Glasguenses, Edinburgenses admoneant, ut si qui sint idonei ad munus capessendum, praesto sint ad diem condictum Quo neque favore neque ; partium gratia sed virtute et eruditionis praestantia consummetur. Praeferatur

tamen peregrinis ab Electoribus, si quis in gremio Collegii Aberdonensis repertus THE NOVA FUNDATIO. 339

fuerit idoneus ad hoc munus capessendum, Regentium gradibus servatis. In tota hac electione Gymnasiarchae, atque etiam aliorum praeceptorum dicti Collegii, ut nemo sibi suffragari possit, et ad seipsum eligendum suffragium ne

habeat, aut si unus aliquis et idem duas fortasse aut plures dictorum Electorum

personas sustinebit, volumus ut eo casu unius tantum suffragii jus habeat ; neque ulli Electorum jus ehgendi aut ferendi suffragia concedatur nisi solenni more prius juranti se bona fide in toto examine et electione absque affectu et personarum respectu versaturum. Quoniam eruditum hominem quaerimus cujus humeris onus totius Collegii incumbat, eique insuper Ecclesiae Macharianae curam demandamus, isque neque labores sustinere neque sumptibus sufficere possit nisi honestis praemiis invitetur, idcirco prae victu et honorario ei et famulo sue constituimus in praesen- tiarum pro ratione reddituum, quos jam habet Collegium, viginti quatuor bollas

farinae avenariae seu hordei, et ducentas mercas monetae Scotiae ; et ubi quid accreverit redditibus Collegii, transactis damnosis locationibus vel alio quovis modo, tum primum superaddentur praefato Principal! aliae viginti quatuor bollae farinae avenariae seu hordei, ita ut in anona percipiat tres chalderas seu quadraginta octo bollas, quibus integre perceptis ex supra dicta summa ducentarum mercarum detrahentur ex annuo salario dicti Principalis triginta tres mercae quinque asses aut solidi et sex denarii, si aliter Collegii sumptus ferre non possint. Et sic quidem Principalem nostri Collegii, quem pro totius vitae suae curriculo eligimus, vitam instituere volumus, qui si negligens fuerit in suo munere, et si quae sint ei per specialem electionem injuncta non impleverit, neque resipiscere velit, cum ter admonitus fuerit per Cancellarium, Academiae Rectorem, Decanum Facultatis, Collegii

Regentes, vel eorum majorem partem, sed si in malos mores proclivis fuerit, iisdem auctoribus exauctorabitur quos prius in electione locum habere decrevimus. Quatuor insuper Regentes putamus dare et commodo Gymnasii fore necessaries, qui juventuti instituendae praesint et Principali auxilientur, quorum unus proximus post Principalem Subprincipalis dicitur cui quarta classis commissa est. Hie ut Principalis ad vitae suae spatium in eo munere permanebit, de quo postea. Horum quatuor Regentium primae et infimae classi praefectus Graecae Linguae institutionem profitebitur, addita enarratione quam facillimorum et optimorum authorum utriusque linguae, eosdemque frequenti styli exercitio, sex primis mensibus Latinae compositioni, reliquis sequentibus Graecae inscriptioni assuefaciet. Proximus praecepta inventionis, dispositionis, et elocutionis quam possit facili methodo suos auditores sequenti anno docebit, usumque praeceptorum ex optimis utriusque linguae authoribus praeceptis adjunget, adolescentesque tum scribendo tum declamando exercebit, ut in utriusque linguae facultate pares ad Philosophiae praecepta capes- senda magis idonei evadere possint. Tertius Arithmeticae et Geometriae Rudimenta, selectionem ex Aristotelis Organo Logico, una cum ejusdem libris Ethicoji/ et Politicoi; e Graeco contextu enarrabit, quibus et librorum Marci Tullii de Officiis ad mores melius reformandos et linguam Latinam locupletandam explicationem adjunget. Eligentur autem hi tres Regentes vel eorum aliquis, quoties vacare ejusmodi locum contigerit, per Universitatis Cancellarium, Rectorem, Decanum Facultatis, Collegii Principalem, Subprincipalem, Novae Abredoniae Ministrum, tres Regentes 340 APPENDIX. ejusdem Collegii (ita ut omnes tres tantummodo unum habeant suffragium); aut sin minus omnes adesse una possint, volumus ex praenominatis electoribus quatuor, i.e., numerum qui quatuor suffragia compleat, ad minimum interesse, et ex his quatuor Principalem Collegii una cum Ministro Novae Abredoniae, alioquin irritam fore electionem. Licebit unicuique horum trium in sue officio permanere quamdiu assidui et diligentes fuerint, modo nihil faciant quod exauctorationem mereat. Unicuique horum Regentium pro annuo victu et sallario, prout Collegii reditus nunc se habent, unam chalderam farinae avenaticae, una cum quadraginta septem libris et septem decern solidis monetae regni nostri assignamus. Ubi autem quid accreverit Collegii redditibus, vel exactis damnosis locationibus, tum superaddi unicuique horum volumus octo bollas farinae avenaticae seu hordei, et de summa quadraginta septem librarum et septem decern solidorum detrahi septem libras et septem decem solidos, ita ut unusquisque horum trium tunc temporis habeat pro victu et sallario viginti quatuor bollas farinae avenaticae vel hordei et quadraginta libras. Quartus Regens, quem Subprincipalem nominamus, quique in eo munere quamdiu vixerit durabit, vir erit pius, modestus, doctus. Physiologiam omnem, eamque de natura animalium utpote inprimis necessariam de Graeco Aristotelis contextu enarrabit. Geographiam etiam et Astrologiam profitebitur, nec non gene- ralem etiam Cosmographiam et temporum a condito mundo supputationem, quae res ad alias disciplinas et Historiarum cognitionem non parum lucis adfert, quibus sub anni finem sanctae linguae praecepta, una cum eorundem nonnulla praxi adjunget. Hujus electio erit penes Cancellarium Universitatis, Rectorem, Decanum Facultatis, Principalem Collegii, Ecclesiae Novae Aberdoniae Ministrum, tres Regentes ejusdem

Collegii, ita ut hi tres unum tantum habeant suffragium; aut si minus una omnes adesse possint, volumus ex praenominatis electoribus quatuor, i.e., qui quatuor suffragia tenant, ad minimum interesse, et ex his quatuor Principalem Collegii una cum Ministro Novae Aberdoniae, alioquin irritam fere electionem; fietque ejus electio infra mensem a die vacationis edicto publico a Principali affixo super valvis Collegii et Ecclesiarum Novae et Veteris Aberdoniae. Quoniam vero hujus quarti Regentis qui et Subprincipalis dicitur, opera et laboribus, Colophonem philosophico studio imponi volumus, ac pileo coronatos adolescentes ad graviora studia alacrius conten- dere, quin etiam Procuratio Gymnasii ejusque cura et disciplina ad eum praecipue pertinebunt in Principalis absentia qualicunque vel distractione propter Ecclesiae Macharianae administrationem et curam, eidem cum suo famulo pro annuo victu et sallario assignamus, ut Collegii redditus nunc se habent, viginti quatuor bollas farinae avenaticae et octoginta libras monetae regni nostri Scotiae, ubi autem quid accreverit redditibus Collegii, exactis damnosis locationibus, tum superaddentur illi aliae viginti quatuor boUae farinae avenaticae seu hordei, et ex praedicta summa 80 lib. detrahentur 13 lib. 6 solidi et 8 nummi, ita ut praedictus subprincipalis habeat tunc temporis pro annuo victu et sallario tres chalderas farinae avenaticae seu hordei et 66 lib. 13 solidos 4 nummos. Quatuor autem hos Regentes nolumus (prout in Regni nostri Academiis olim mos fuit) novas professiones quotannis immutare, quo factum fuit ut dum multa profiterentur, in paucis periti invenirentur; verum volumus ut in eadem professione THE NOVA FUNDATIO. se exerceant, ut adolescentes qui gradatim ascendunt, dignum suis studiis et ingeniis praeceptorem repenre queant. Quod si e re Gymnasii fuerit, idque Gymnasiarchae, Subprincipali, Rectori, Cancellario, Decano Facultatis visum fuerit, aut ex his tribus nimirum Principali, Subprincipali, Decano Facultatis, tres reliqui Regentes, ex eorum decreto, mutare inter se provincias possunt : Qui etiam Authores juventuti proponendos singulis annis praescribent, ita tamen ut omnes authores iis Unguis quibus primum scripserunt, studiosis enarrentur. Volumus etiam praefatos nostros Regentes eorum curae commissos docendo, scribendo, declamando, disputando, quam diligentissime in palaestra literaria exerceant, praesertim vero duarum infimarum classium studiosos quotidianae compositioni assuefieri, horamque unam quotidie ad minimum hac in re consumere. Item post exactos primos octodecem menses, studiosos omnes singulis mensibus, publicis declamationibus tam Graece quam Latine dili-

genter exercere ; utque hac pia emulatione magis inflammentur studia, studiosos omnes in decurias distribui, et singulo quoque mense ita censuram agi ut doctissimus quisque ceteris omnibus praeferatur. Ad haec volumus neminem in studiosorum numerum in primum ordinem admitti, nisi qui diligenti exploratione per Decanum, Principalem, Subprincipalem, tres Regentes, Praeceptores utriusque Scholae Gram- matices, aut eorum alterum, ad id juratos omnes, dignus eo ordine censebitur. Singulis quoque annis ordinum promotiones per gradus progressionis fieri volumus, ita ut primi ordinis studiosi ad secundum transeant, secundi ad tertium, tertii ad quartum, quarti denique, absoluto studio philosophico, laurea magisterii donentur. In quibus gradibus hoc diligenter caveatur, ne quisquam indignus promotione in superiorem ordinem transeat, nisi justo examine per Decanum Facultatis, Princi- palem, Subprincipalem, tres Regentes, Magistros Scholarum Novae et Veteris Aberdoniae aut eorum alterum, ad id juratos publice omnes per eos habito. Siquis autem per eos promotione indignus censebitur, in eodem quo prius permanebit ordine, donee dignus promotione ad superiorem per eos judicabitur. Has examinationes et promotiones et in Collegium nostrum admissiones, singulis annis Calendis Octobris inchoare volumus. Singulis diebus Dominicis in singulis classibus lectionem sacram ex novo Testamento proponi volumus, ita ut primae classi Evangelium Divi Lucae, secundae Acta Apostolorum, tertiae Epistolam Divi Pauli ad Romanos, quartae Epistolam ad Hebraeos sui praeceptores mane hora sexta perlegant, hora vero quarta pomeridiana eandem praelectionem a suis quisque discipulis exigat. Potestas autem emendandi et corrigendi dictos Regentes erit penes dictum Principalem et Subprinci- palem, quibus etiam potestas erit eosdem Collegio ejiciendi, si postpositis eorum officiis, ter, ut dictum est, admoniti resipiscere noluerint, cognita tamen causa et adhibito consilio Rectoris et Decani Facultatis. Porro paupertatis habita cura, et quod multi prae inopia a bonis Uteris deterrean- tur, adjunximus duodecem pauperes studentes quos Bursarios vocant, iisque singulis assignamus pro annuo victu et ex redditibus dicti Collegii triginta libras. Eos paupertatis nomine commendatos esse volumus, quibus parentes et amici prae inopia victum et amictum suppeditare non queant, eosque ingenii praestantia et grammaticae facultatis peritia, bonisque moribus valere. Electio, admissio et collatio dictorum Bursariorum erit ad hanc formam. Principalis, vel ipso absente Siib-

Roberti Maitland, cujus opera facta est accessio Decanatus ad hoc nostrum Collegium, debetur, cujus cognatos et cognomines iniquum esset praeterire, quin et eorum pauperum imprimis ratio habenda est, ex quorum parochiis sumptus annui nostro Collegio suppeditantur, et id quidem caeteris paribus ut aliis praeferantur. Rectoris, Decani, Gymnasiarchae, Regentium et Electorum cura erit providere ne divites loco pauperum admittantur, neve fuci alvearia depascantur, sed eos tantum in Gymnasium recipere qui Patriae ornamento et Ecclesiae usui esse poterunt. Hos autem pauperes nostros humilitatis et obedientiae exemplar esse volumus, et per omnia praeceptoribus morem gerere, quod ni fecerint, potestatem facimus dicto Gymnasiarchae et Praeceptoribus eos puniendi, et pro ratione delicti usque ad eorum ejectionem e dicto Collegio inclusive, si propter eorum contumaciam id promeriti fuerint. Hi longis togis induti sint, praecincti zona pellicea alba ad quatuor digitos lata, et horum erit hebdomadatim et vicissim omnium in Collegio dormientium cubicula, hora quinta circumire nempe matutina, studiosos ad studia excitare, lumenque hyeme afferre, nec non alia tenuiora ministeria in aula prandii aut coenae tempore (ut in ferculis et dapibus mensae imponendis et aqua ministranda) obire, et ejusmodi alia quae sine studiorum suorum

dispendio a Gymnasiarcha caeterisque Praeceptoribus illis injungentur ; quin et ut Janitorum vice vicissim fungantur, donee proventibus Academicae auctis, certus aliquis ad hoc officium eligatur. Horum ad Collegium ingressus Calendis Octobris sit, permaneantque in studio literario et Gymnasii sumptibus ut dictum est alantur, totis quatuor annis, quod tempus idoneum judicamus ad studium philosophicum consummandum et lauream adipiscendam, quibus exactis novi Bursarii provideantur, donee iterum ad metam decurrerint. Oeconomum autem et Provisorem hominem bonum et industrium requirimus, cui salus Collegii imprimis curae sit. Hie initio suae administrationis cautionem pracstabit, res Collegii salvas fore, seque bona fide administraturum. Penes eum erit omnes proventus et redditus Collegii qualescunque colligere, diem dicere debitoribus, convenire in judicio nomine Collegii, et caetera legitime peragere. Ejus erit tempestive ex praeceptorum arbitrio Collegio providere in iis quae ad victum pertinent et fori quotidie curam agere in iis emendis quae ad Collegii sustentationem pertinent fructus et redditus Collegii perceptos, Principali, Subprincipali, tribus praeceptoribus, adeoque omnibus fundatis personis, distribuere tempestive quodcunque in hac nostra fundatione assignamus, et bona fide exsolvere ad certos anni terminos respective (prius tamen subducto pretio victus dictarum fundatarum personarum) summam THE NOVA FUNDATIO. 343 pecuniarum ad duos anni terminos, per duas aequales partes ad festum Martini in hyeme et festum Pentecostes. Annonam autem quotannis ante Calendas Martii nec prius Principali aut Subprincipali quam infimis fundatis personis satisfiat, omnibus sine discrimine, pro rata cujusque parte mature debita adjuncta et stipendia persolvat. Quorum omnium singulis septimanis Principali, Subprincipali, et reliquis Praecep- toribus rationem reddere tenebitur, ne qua in re minima fraus fiat fundatis personis,

qui etiam negligentiam Economi et incuriam si ulla fuerit arguent et castigabunt, ad haec etiam adhibitis, ubi representaverit, Rectore et Decano Facultatis in consilium, qui de remedio in omnibus CoUegii imminentibus damnis mature provideant. Electio autem Economi fiat ad earn formam quam in eligendis tribus inferioribus Regentibus praescripsimus, qui in eo munere ad minimum per tres annos permanebit.

Et quia hujus partis sunt tempestive providere in iis quae ad victum pertinent omnium membrorum Collegii, ut justo et equabili pretio commodius id praestare possit, volumus ut singulis annis Calendis viz. Octobris, ex consilio Rectoris, Decani Facultatis, Principalis, Praefecti, et Ballivorum novae et veteris Aberdoniae, adjunctis una aliis quatuor ex Senatu novae Aberdoniae, pretia pro cibariis omnium fundatorum Collegii, turn etiam aliorum convivarum in Collegio qui non sint ex fundatione, pro ratione caritatis et vilitatis eorum quae ad victum pertinent, estimentur et consti- tuantur, simulque quis dapium et fercularum numerus, quae potus, et panis mensura, qualitas, quisque tractationis modus praescribatur. Quorum consilium hac in parte dictum nostrum Oeconomum observare et sequi volumus, et quia crebro solent fieri pretiorum commutationes, ne quid damni vel nostro Collegio vel dicto Economo, volumus ut ter singulis annis Calendis viz. Februarii, Maij, et Augusti postea idem Oeconomus, ex consilio Rectoris, Decani Facultatis, Principalis, et Magistrorum Collegii, adjunctis duobus civibus seu Ballivis seu consiliariis Novae Urbis Aberdoniae, mensuram prius pretio constituto pro cibariis augere vel minuere pro rerum caritate et vilitate possit. Quoniam autem variis curis et occupationibus distrahi Provisorem nostrum oportebit, propter ea quae necessaria ad recipiendos Collegii proventus ab

eodem impenduntur, quae illi in rationibus deduci aequum est, ei salani nomine assignamus et annumeramus pro praesenti statu reddituum Collegii, sex bollas farinae avenaticae et sexaginta sex libras tredecem solidos et quatuor nummos, auctis autem Collegii redditibus, exactisque damnosis locationibus, pro annuo salario percipiat ex Collegii redditibus decern et sex bollas farinae avenaticae et quinquaginta libras monetae regni nostri Scotiae. Volumus Praeceptorem Grammaticae virum esse bonum et doctum et apprime versatum in Latina et Graeca literatura turn carmine quum soluta oratione Cujus ; electio erit ad eam formam quam praescripsimus in electione trium Regentium. Non astringetur ut collegialiter vivat, sed pro suo arbitrio vivat ubi commodior vivendi

occasio illi erit oblata, sive in Collegio, sive extra septa Collegii. Providebit Gymna- siarcha sumptibus Collegii Scholam commodam extra Collegium m gratiam juniorum illius curae commissorum, una cum cubiculo intra septa Collegii dicto Scholae Gram- matices magistro. Huic praeceptori pro annuo stipendio assignamus et annumeramus ex redditibus Collegii quinquaginta libras, cum accessione quinque mercarum quibus olim gaudebat. 344 APPENDIX.

Coquus etiam idoneus eligatur per Principalem, Subprincipalem, Regentes et Provisorem, qui praeparandis cibariis et excolendo horto Gymnasii inser\-iat. Huic pro laboribus et victu allocamus triginta libras; olera suis sumptibus suppeditabit in usum membrorum dicti CoUegii curabitque ; hortum et deambulacra munda fore

in usum magistrorum dicti Collegii ; commoda reliqua horti suis usibus applicare licebit. Reparationi Collegii (ut aedificia sint bene tuta) quotannis ex primis ejusdem fructibus quadraginta ad minimum libras monetae regni Scotiae, quas in aerarium seponi jubemus, et ubi quod exactis damnosis locationibus vel morte possessorum earum rerum quae ad Collegium pertinent, aut alio quovis modo redditibus Collegii accreverit, primam ejus partem reliquae reparationi et necessariis sumptibus per Oeconomum in colligendis Collegii fructibus et redditibus faciendis impendi volumus. Reliquam omnem honorariis Principalis, Subprincipalis, Regentium, et Oeconomi accrescere pro rata cuique quotannis distribui ex consilio Cancellarii. Rectoris. Decani Facultatis, et Ministri Novae Aberdoniae. Et quo liberius quisque in hac Academia suo officio invigilare possit, ca\emus ne quis magistrorum aliquid aliud publicum munus extra septa Collegii sibi accersat, praeter quod in hac nostra fundatione et erectione injunximus, adeo ut neque Rectoris neque Decani Facultatis munere quisquam eorum fungatur. Quod si cuivis fundatarum personarum uxorem ducere contigerit, ca\ emus ne uxor ejus, filiae aut famulae intra septa Collegii nostri \'ersentur, nedum ullo modo habitent aut pernoctent. Quo autem hoc nostrum Gymnasium et literarum cultura et morum elegantia magis efflorescat, uberiores fructus haec nostra Institutio proferat, volumus tarn omnes Collegii nostri fundatas personas quam confluentes studiosos severa morum disciplina contineri, et ne intermissione studiorum et moribus et Uteris damnum inferatur, omnes consuetas olim a studiis vacationes aboleri penitus. Vetamus etiam ne in promotionibus ad quemcunque gradum ulla sumptuosiora convivia agitentur, quicquam admittatur, quod praescriptam in Gymnasio disciplinam quovis modo vel possit removere vel solvere. Imprimis autem cavemus ne quisquam studiosorum, Praeceptoribus exceptis, arma quaevis seu ad inferendam seu ad propulsandam injuriam apta, utpote loricam. thoracem ferream, cassidem, chirothecas ferreas, gladium, pugionem, machaeram, frameam, sclopos et id genus armorum habeat, aut quovis modo iis utatur in Collegio

aut extra Collegium ; sed scalpellis tantum cultellisque cibis scindendis commodis solummodo utantur. Qui contra fecerit primum damno et confiscatione armorum per Principalem aut Subprincipalem aut Praeceptores mulctetur, secundo delinquens ex

disciplina Gymnasii in publicis scholis verberibus castigetur, quod si tertio banc legem violaverit, tanquam indignus studiosorum numero ejiciatur. Praedictae quoque omnes personae fundatae intra septa G3'mnasii et vescantur et dormiant; siquisautem Bursariorum venia nonimpetrata,ut dictum est, extra Collegium dormierit, et admonitus et castigatus non resipiscat, beneficio Bursae statim privetur. Studiosorum vero reliqui qui cubiculis intra septa Collegii fruuntur, in iisdem cubent et pernoctent, si secus fecerint cubiculis suis removeantur: iidem extra Collegium THE NOVA FUNDATIO. 345 victitantes nunquam nisi destinatis horis ad cibum capiendum extra Collegium reperiantur. Si extra cubaverint ad sextam statim matutinam ingrediantur, nec ante nonam Collegio exeant, reversis a jentaculo ante decimam, ante duodecimam non licebit exire, post prandium vero qui in Aberdonia veteri victitant hora prima, qui vero in nova ante secundam pomeridianam Collegium repetant et ingrediantur, in eoque commorabuntur ad sextam vespertinam, nisi ludendi venia omnibus concedatur, turn autem simul egressi ab aliquo Praeceptorum (qui hebdomadatim banc curam sustinebunt) et deducentur et una reducentur, neque ludendi tempus ultra duas horas ab egressu e Collegio protrahetur, ita ut possint opportune ad lectiones redire, hinc etiam praeceptori banc curam injungimus ut hora quinta matutina et nona vespertina omnia cubicula invisat. Volumus etiam studiosos omnes summa Concordia pacifice inter se vivere, neminem alteri injuriam verbo vel facto inferre, Latino aut Graeco sermone uti, ab inhonesto et impudico sermone, ab execrationibus, devovationibus, omnibusque blasphemiis abstinere ; horis sacris, concionibus, precibus, sacris lectionibus, et Scripturarum interpretationi, quam prophetiam vocamus, praescriptis quam diligentissime interesse ; in omnibus denique quae ad disciplinam Collegii pertinent, legibus morem gerere, quae a Gymnasiarcha ex consilio collegarum latae sunt vel in posterum ferentur; quibus et potestatem fecimus statuta honesta ad disciplinam nostri Gymnasii sartam tectam conservandam, prout occasio tulerit, et pro re nata condendi et constituendi. Qui vero ad Magisterii lauream jam promoti, adhuc tamen intra Gymnasium vivere constituerint, ejusdem disciplinae legibus subsint, studiorumque rationem

Principali et reliquis ejus Collegis reddant, quod si extra Gymnasium degentes lectionibus tantum publicis vel privatis interesse cupiant, cum omni modestia, nec ullo male exemplo ingrediantur et egrediantur, et reliquorum studia quovis modo remorentur, risusve exemplo noceant ; si secus fecerint, Collegio prohibeantur. Quia hactenus damnosis locationibus Gymnasium nostrum plurimum detrimenti accepit, statuimus et ordinamus nullum locationem sive emphyteosin vel feudifirmam, sive in annos plures vel pauciores, aut agrorum aut decimarum, aut aedificiorum aut quarumcunque rerum, validam et ratam fore quae non habeat expressum assensum et consensum Cancellarii, Rectoris, Decani, Principalis et Regentium simul congrega- torum, testificatum et approbatum singulis ipsorum chirographis et sigillo communi dicti Collegii, una cum subscriptione ministri Novae Aberdoniae alioque irrita sit ; deinceps locatio. Et ut hae omnes diligentius observentur, ordinamus ut hoc nostrum Collegium ter quotannis per Cancellarium, Rectorem, et Decanum Facultatis utpote Calendis

Februarii, Junii et Octobris invisatur et lustretur, ut si quid sive in doctrina sive in disciplina seu redditibus neglectum vel corruptum fuerit, eorum admonitione et consilio emendari et corrigi possit. Imprimis vero de fidei et religionis professione diligenter inquiratur, et cum hie sit Satanae astus ut omni modo conetur juventutem ab evangelii professione denuo ad papismi tenebras (a quibus per Dei gratiam nostrum regnum liberatum est) abducere, stricte mandamus ut singuli qui in hanc Academiam fuerint cooptati, fidei XX 346 APPENDIX. profassionem edant, earn nimirum quae a verbo Dei petita et transcripta a nobis in regni nostri conventibus edita et publicata est, idque semel ad minimum quotannis. Imprimis vero dum admittuntur in Collegium, singuli apud Principalem Albo Univer- sitatis inscribantur, Rectori et, dum ad gradum aliquem promoveantur. Decano Facultatis fidem et religionem puram palam profiteantur, in eaque professione se mansuros sincere polliceantur. Admissi in Academiam studiosi, non tantum in studiis diligentes, in moribus probos, sed erga Praeceptores et publicos ministros CoUegii nostri gratos se praebeant; itaque studiosorum quisque Praeceptori proprio Minervale persolvet ex arbitrio et estimatione Praeceptorum, ita ut procerum et insignioris nobilitatis liberi, sex libras, inferioris ordinis nobilitatis filii quatuor libras, agrico- larum filii et mercatorum mediocrium atque artificum quadraginta solidos numerare jubeantur; ab his tributis pauperes omnino sint liberi ; Communi Apparitori singuli quatuor solidos in anno. In examinationibus et promotionibus singuli in commune Collegii aerarium haec conferant, in primo gradu primique anni examinatione sex solidos octo denarios, in secundo tredecim solidos quatuor denarios, in tertio viginti solidos, in quarto et ultimo triginta solidos, ita ut ab his omnibus pauperes sint immunes. Qui vero pauperes sint habendi, praeceptorum judicium et estimatio erit. Quia vero multa in hac nostra Academia Rectori ejusdem et Decano Facultatis permisimus, volumus ut singulis annis hi Magistratus eligantur. Rector sit vir gravis pius juris et aequitatis consultor et peritus ; ei sit in omnes Academiae inscriptos quos suppositos vocamus, ordinaria jurisdictio, celebrioribus Academiae conventibus, praesertim in electionibus, juxta ea quae praescripta sunt intersit, easque actiones, absente praesertim Cancellario, moderetur, eaque omnia gerat, agat, et exerceat, quae Rector Andreanae vel Glasguensis Academiae, lege more et consuetudine gerere agere vel exercere posse vel debere intelligitur. Eligatur per omnes Academiae suppositos in quatuor nationes (ita ut Aberdoniae diocesis propter frequentiorem numerum in duas nationes secetur, Marriensem et Buchanensem, Marriae Gariocha adjungatur, quod superest a Doverna amni Buchaniae cedat) reliquum regni quod ad septentrionem montis Grampii est, Moraviensis nationis nomine contineatur; ultra montem Grampium ad austrum vergens Angusiensis natio dicatur. Harum nationum singuli sint Procuratores, qui Rectorem ejusque assessores eligant. Electus Rector jurabit se fideliter et diligenter eo munere usurum, jus aequabile omnibus citra personarum respectum ullum bona fide administraturum. In electionibus eadem fide ex animi sententia et in commodum reipublicae et ecclesiae suffragium laturum, et Academiae commodis, salva pietate licet, obnixe fauturum, neque unquam ilium scientem aut volentem repugnaturum, denique Rempublicam banc literarum ornaturum et aucturum, Decanus Facultatis iisdem comitiis eligatur, sed per Rectorem, Cancellarium, Gymnasiarcham, quatuor Regentes et novae Aberdoniae ministrum, ita ut Gym- nasiarcha cum ministro novae urbis semper ejus electioni intersint. Hie sit pius, literatus, nec tantum in humanioribus quas appellant disciplinis, sed etiam in omni philosophia versatus, qui annuis examinationibus et promotionibus intersit et praesit, ut ab examinatoribus jusjurandum fidelis operae in his praestandis exigat. Curam doctrinae et diligentiae praeceptorum habeat, videat ne ejus rei neglectu Academia ;

quid detrimenti capiat, in electionibus incorruptum suffragium et e republica ferat, ea denique omnia exerceat quae in Andreana Academia ad Decani Facultatis liberalium artium munus officiumve pertinere intelliguntur. Jurat se fideliter eo munere usurum, bona fide et citra personarum respectum juxta Assessorum et Examinatorum judicia, et ex sui animi sententia, in promotionibus et gradibus pronunciaturum, Collegii et Academiae commoda, quantum salva pietate licet, pro- moturum, ea denique omnia diligenter acturum quae Academiae Andreanae vel alterius cujusvis laudabilis Academiae Decano ex officio incumbere intellexerit, et e republica Christiana et literaria esse certe cognoverit. Volumus denique hoc nostrum Collegium et Academiam Aberdonensem omnibus immunitatibus et privilegiis quae a majoribus nostris aut nobis aut aliis quovis modo concessa sunt ulli aliarum Academiarum in regno nostro aut alibi ubicunque gentium gaudere et frui, modo dictae immunitates et privilegia huic nostrae Erectioni non repugnaverint.

Outline of the Nova Fundatio.

King James VI., deeming it the duty of a sovereign to remove such abuses as arise within his kingdom, especially in connection with the instruction of youth; and desirous of extending to the King's College of Aberdeen the reformation which has been instituted in the Universities of S.

APPENDIX III.

ACADEMIC OATHS AT KING'S COLLEGE.

The oldest form of Oath that has been preserved is appended to Dunbar's Foundation of 1531. It was taken by entrants, and runs as follows: " Ego A. B. tactis sacris Dei evangeliis juramentum presto corporale me omnem obedientiam et reverentiam debitam universitatis cancellario ejusdem rectori et collegii hujus principali exhibiturum omnia statuta et constitutiones que in primeva coUegii hujus fundatione continentur in quantum cum vera et orthodoxa religione in ecclesia hac palam proposita et stabilita consistere possunt (nisi forte aliter cancellario universitatis aliisque legitimis superioribus in quibusdam permittere visum fuerit) inviolabiter observaturum singula dicti collegii jura et privilegia defensurum ejusdemque commodum et utilitatem in omnibus juxta posse meum procuraturum. Ita me Deus adjuvet." In the " Leges Veteres de novo promulgatae anno 1641 " appear two modified forms of the Matriculation Oath, from which the reference to " vera et orthodoxa religio " has been removed. " Ego A. B. collegio regio Aberdonensi nomen me dare profiteor, meque honestis et salubribus ejus legibus sedulo et fideliter obtemperaturum, commoda ejusdem in quibus salva pietate et officio licet, pro virili procuraturum, nunquam denique illi licite agenti adversaturum sed obnixe fauturum quantum tenuitatem meam divina gratia juvet sancte promitto, spondeo, stipulor." " Ego A. B. collegio regio Aberdonensi nomen me dare profiteor, sicque divinum numen mihi propitium opto, ut ego honestis ejusdem legibus obtemperaturum praeceptoribus ejusdem debitam reverentiam et obedientiam exhibiturum ejusque commodis in quibus licet obnixe fauturum me sancte coram Deo polliceor, promitto juro et spondeo, Deumque ultorem si sciens et volens fefellero non recuso." In a somewhat later undated edition of these "Leges," the Oath does not occur; but there is the following note : " Solebant studiosi in hasce leges jurare, sed non desideramus juramento astringere. Sed est juramentum quod praestare solebant studiosi: " Ego A. B. academiae Aberdonensi nomen me dare profiteor, meque honestis ejus legibus jam latis sedulo obtemperaturum, praeceptoribus ejusdem debitam reverentiam et obedientiam exhibiturum, ejusque commodis in quibus licet, obnixe fauturum me sancte polliceor, spondeo, juro. Amen."

The Graduation Oath, however, survived to a recent period. As mentioned in the Preface, no Album of Graduates is extant of earlier date than that [A] beginning 350 APPENDIX.

in 1600. On the initial fly-leaf are engrossed two variants of the Oath taken by Masters at that period. " Ego A. B. coram omniscio et omnipotente Deo, religionem reformatam, ct fidem in ecclesia hac Scoticana nunc palam propositam, ab omnibus et singulis pontificiorum et aliorum quorumcunque haeresibus erroribus hominum inventis ac cultibus idolatricis longe abhorrentem, unicam solam orthodoxam (prout in puro Dei verbo, foedere national! Scoticano, trium nationum Scotiae Angliae et Hiberniae solenni confederatione, fidei confessione publica, et catechismo breviori et prolixiori,

partibus uniformitatis, continetur) ad extremum usque vitae halitum, sincere (si Deus dederit) me professurum, spondeo, voveo, jure. Insuper academiae huic almae parenti (cui hanc ingenii culturam debeo), nutritia uti potero liberaliter me relaturum promitto quod si fidem sciens et volens fefellero, arcanorum cordis reces- ; suum scrutatorem, Deum ultorem et vindicem non recuse. Ita me Deus adjuvet." " Ego A. B. coram omniscio et omnipotent! Deo, religionem et fidem in ecclesia Scoticana ex puro Dei verbo palam propositam, ab omnibus pontificiorum et quorumcunque aliorum haeresibus longe abhorrentem, unicam et solam orthodoxam, ad extremum usque vitae halitum, sincere et ex animo professurum me, spondeo, voveo, juro. Insuper academiae huic almae parenti (cui hanc ingenii culturam debeo), nutricia uti potero, liberaliter relaturum me eadem fide solenniter promitto. Quod

si fidem sciens et volens fefellero, arcanorum cordis recessuum scrutatorem, Deum ultorem et vindicem non recuse. Ita me Deus adjuvet." A greatly modified form seems to have been in use in 1642 {Album E). " Juramentum quo sese astringunt academiae regiae Aberdonensis alumni, priusquam laurea magisteriali donati fuerint, anno 1642. " Ego A. B. siquidem non solum beneficium educationis in literis et cursu philosophico, sed etiam alimenti et sustentationis in collegio regio Aberdonensi hucusque habuerim, pro quibus beneficiis officium gratitudinis realiter me debere agnosco : Idcirco solenniter jam juro, et fideliter per Dei maxime nomen promitto, voveo, spondeo, quandocunque me Dominus vel in patria vel extra eandem potentem reddiderit, me in gratitudinis debitae signum secundum posse pro beneficiis predictis in me collatis liberaliter relaturum in Dei gloriam et academiae hujus emolumentum, sciensque et volens, nullum ingratitudinis signum contra eandem unquam expres- surum. In quibus si fidem fefellero meipsum (quod absit) infamem et perjurum agnosco, Deumque, quern antea testem, tunc judicem et vindicem non recuse." But the Oath as given in Middleton's Appendix to Spotsuvod (1677), p. 26, resembles rather the earlier form. " Ego A. B. coram omniscio et omnipotenti Deo, religionem et fidem solam et unicam in orthodoxam ecclesia Scoticana palam propositam professurum me, et ab omnibus pontificiorum et aliorum quorumcunque haeresibus longe abhorrentem, spondeo, voveo, juro. Insuper universitati huic, almae parenti, cui hanc ingenii culturam debeo, liberaliter relaturum me nutritiam quam potero, eadem fide solemniter promitto. Quod si fidem sciens et volens fefellero, arcanorum cordis recessuum scrutatorem Deum ultorem et vindicem non recuse. Ita me adjuvet Deus." The Oath administered to the students at King's College on obtaining the — — ;

ACADEMIC OATHS. 351

Degree of M.A. (circa 1837) was in the following terms (First Report of the Aberdeen

Universities' Commissioners of 1836-37, p. 75) : " Ego coram omniscio et omnipotente Deo, doctrinam et fidem Christianam quousque Dei verbo palam proponitur ab omnibus haeresibus longe abhorrentem, publice profiteer. Insuper academiae huic almae parenti, cui banc ingenii culturam debeo, nutricia (uti potero) liberaliter relaturum, solemniter promitto."

The corresponding Oath taken at Marischal College ran thus : " Ego testor Deum omnipotentem, me puram religionem Christianam profiteri Papae Romani tyrannidem abhorrere, omnesque Romanas haereses odio habere. Deinde huic academiae, cui ingenii culturam debco, benevolentiam, quam potero, me relaturum, sancte promitto."

Regarding these Oaths, the Commissioners reported (p. 25) : —

" The Oath differs in the two Universities. In Marischal College it is directly calculated to exclude Roman Catholics. In King's College the terms of the Oath are more general, and therefore less exceptionable. We humbly recommend that both of these Oaths should be abolished. It is an important feature of the Scottish Universities that no religious test is required from the students, but that their Colleges are equally open to all classes, whether Churchmen or Dissenters, and we can see no good reason why the same principle should not be extended to Graduates. We differ widely from those who are of opinion that religious instruction should be excluded from such seminaries, and we intend to offer to your Majesty some suggestions on this subject in a future Report ; but we do not think that the interests of religion can be promoted by the injustice of excluding any class of your Majesty's subjects, either from the instruction or the honours of an University, on account of their religious creed."

The Reports of the 1836-37 Commissioners gave rise to no legislation ; and in the Ordinances of the Commissioners under the Universities (Scotland) Act of 1858 no reference can be found to the taking of an Oath as a necessary preliminary to graduation. But the Senatus of the United University introduced a modified form. " Ego A.

Insuper almae matri academiae, cui ingenii culturam atque hos honores academicos debeo, me benevolentiam quam potero liberaliter relaturum sancte promitto. Ita me Deus adjuvet." In i865 a Royal Commission was appointed to inquire " what oaths, aflfirma- tions " altered — and declarations may be dispensed with or ; and reported, inter alia : " Aberdeen.

1810. The List of Persons, etc., printed in 1856 (Pref, p. xv.) gives two entries " Milne, John, Aberdeen.

Milne, John Duguid, Aberdeen : Advocate, Aberdeen." Neither in Album C nor in Album D is there any trace of two John Milne's in this class. The transcribed list of M.A.'s in Album E has "Joannes Milne, Aberdonensis, Joannes Milne, Aberdonensis," apparently a blunder of the copyist. INDEX OF PERSONS.
