WARDEN MORE was certainly not the "Dr. Edwardus Morus, Anglus," who matriculated at Wittenberg in April, 1539, nor was he the Englishman (name now unknown) who stayed at Wittenberg as Luther's guest in November, 1538, and the following months. The point is settled by the College account roll of 1538-9, which runs from Sept. 14, 30 Hen. VIII., to Sept 12, 31 Hen. VIII. Here is a translation of some of the entries under "Custus necessarii cum donis " : For expenses of sir Warden and sir Rythe and others with them riding to London in the month of November [1538], as in food, drink, botage and other necessaries, as appears by book, £4 os 24d, For expenses of sir Warden and sir Rythe and others with them riding to London in the month of February [1538-9] on business of the mons It appears, by the "allowances for comset out week by week in the account roll, that served in the College hall, which are in that year the following were weeks throughout which More was absent the only weeks; 2nd quarter, 7th and 8th weeks; from the College: 1st quarter, 4th and 11th 3rd quarter, 7th to 12th week (inclusive). These absences are explained by the entries quoted above, and it is clear that he did not go to Wittenberg. It may be added that he never had a doctor's degree (he was only a bachelor of divinity), and that he was bound by the statutory oath of a warden not to absent himself from the College, except on College business, for more than two ously) in any one year. months (either continuously or discontinu 66 66 his journeys from Winchester, was a Fellow John Rythe, who accompanied him on of the College.

In the Register of Fellows in our 'Liber Albus' his Christian name was first entered as 66 Willelmus" and then corrected by the same hand to 66 Johannes." This but was written up from 1532 onwards by part of the register is not contemporaneous, Thomas Larke (Fellow, 1560-82), who, as our accounts and other records show, omitted dates to admissions. Rythe, the Fellow, several names and sometimes gave wrong was identical with scholar elected in 1522, to whose name in our Johannes Ryth," a Register of Scholars there is the marginal note (probably Larke's), ham: socius Winton." He was instituted "vicarius Gillingvicar of Gillingham, Dorset, on Feb. 9, 1541-2, upon the death of Warden More, for More had been holding this living since April, 1527, and had been presented to it by monger, Dean of Chichester (see Hutchins's another Wykehamist, Dr. William Flesh'Dorset,' iii.

The date of More's death is stated in our great precision: Liber Albus' with Decembris hora a prandio 2a subitanea 66 obiit 1541 penultimo morte sed senectute bona, intestatus: Hardy, i. 263) and in 1547 (Dallaway's sepelitur in choro."

In the 'D.N.B.' Kirby (Annals,' p. 229) stated that More (vii. 199) there is an account of Robert gave the College its "Election Cup," an Buckenham (D.D., 1531) which ignores his error which was unfortunately repeated in connexion, if any, with the Archdeaconry Sir Charles Jackson's History of English of Lewes.

A copy account of his adherence to Rome of White's letter accompanying the gift,(L. & P.,' vol. vii., Nos. 805, 807), and dated from "Bugdeane" (Buckden, Hunts) next year, while abroad, he was helping Aug. 20 (1555), and signed "Jo.

The word "botagium," which I trans. lated above merely as botage," is said in D'Arnis's Lexicon' (1890) to signify "præstatio pro vino quod in botis seu vasis vinariis distrahitur," which apparently means ment for (or duty on) wine sold in butts or wine-jars," but it seems to me just possible that the word, as used in the above passage and elsewhere in our accounts, is equivalent to "batillagium," and means boatage or boat-hire." The Warden and his party rode from Winchester to Brentford, and frequently went thence by boat to Queenhithe, to put up at Trumper's Inn," a house which the College owned in Little Trinity Lane. 66 66 pay William Tyndale, which ended in Tyndale's horrible death at Vilvorde. Though the fact is not mentioned in the 'D.N.B.,' Buckenham and Phillips were attainted for treason by our Parliament of 1539 (* L. & P.,' vol. xiv., Pt. I., No. 867, p. 402), but I cannot say whether either of them, being caught in this country, suffered the penalties of attainder. Dallaway (p. 143) said :— The entrance to Chichester-house, from the South-street, leads through Canon-gate, which was greatly repaired by Edward Moore, Warden of Winton College.

Winchester College. H. C. The Easter progress ("progressus Pasche") was one of two progresses which the Warden used to make annually, to visit the College estates. It generally took him to Harmondsworth in Middlesex, where the manor then belonged to the College, and it was perhaps from that neighbourhood that More rode to Parliament " towards the end of April or early in May, 1539, and attended Convocation as Archdeacon of Lewes, to give his opinion or vote on the Six Articles" (see 'Letters and Papers (Hen. VIII.), vol. xiv., Pt. I., Nos. 860 and 1065(4)). These documents (to which MR. WAINEWRIGHT referred) prove that More was then still Archdeacon of Lewes. In ADAH ISAACS MENKEN (12 S. ix. 273, 313, that capacity he had been summoned to 374, 477, 519; x. 32, 79, 97, 115).-With Convocation in November, 1529 ( ́ L. & P.,' courtesy to SIR WILLOUGHBY MAYCOCK, vol. iv., Pt.
