PREFACE.
Or Graduates and of Officers, only meagre and broken records
are preserved in the archives of the Scottish Universities. Such
works as Anthony à 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 annalist 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 Edinburgh (Edinb., 1808-21) give
the Register of Graduates in Medicine, 1705-1821. This list is
continued to 1845 in Nomina eorum qui Gradum Medicinae
Doctoris in Acad. Jac. VI. Scot. Regis, quae Edinb. est, adepti
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

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 Munimenta 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 under-
stood 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 New 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 Academiae 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-

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.
xvii
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 know-
ledge 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.

RECTORS.¹
Elphinstone's Confirmation of the King's grant of
the patronage of Slains. (King's Coll. Muniment Room, Old Chest, i. 1.)
1501.2 Mr. Andrew Liell.
Elphinstone's publication of two Bulls by Pope Alexander VI. (O. C., xliii. 8.)
¹ No directions as to the method of electing the Rector are to be found in Pope Alexander
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 Universität" 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.) "Rector . . . eligatur per omnes
Academiae suppositos in quatuor nationes ita ut Aberdoniae dioecesis propter frequen-
tiorem numerum in duas nationes secetur, Marrensem 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 vocatur. Harum nationum singuli sint
Procuratores, qui Rectorem ejusque Assessores eligant." 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 (16th 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. Cf. election of 1856.
2 In the list of Rectors given in Fasti Aberd., p. lxxvi., is found the name of Mr. William
Strathauchin, under date 1499. The sole authority for this entry seems to be a marginal note
(“Mr. Gul. Strathachin Imus Rector et Vicarius perpetuus B. M. ad Nives") in Professor
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%.

Professor of Divinity in the same. Mr. Middleton held Rectoral meetings on
5th November, 10th November, 1762; 21st March, 25th April, 10th May, 1763.
On 21st March, the Principal and Masters unanimously acknowledge Mr.
Middleton as Rector (see under "Civilists," 25th April, 1763); and Messrs.
Forbes, Wilson, Innes, and Gordon, as Assessors. On 25th April, the Rector
and Assessors consider a long Report from Messrs. Forbes and Wilson, who
had been appointed on 21st March a Committee "to revise the Minutes of
College Meetings, and other papers that may show the usual forms of pro-
ceeding in Rectoral Visitations ". (See Evidence of Commission of 1826-30, IV.
169.) The Court "find the Institution of the Rectorall Court necessary for the
preservation of the College, and find that in all time comeing the annuall
election of a Rector shall proceed without Procuratores Nationum chosen to
join in the said election . . . and with regard to the Procuratores in general,
find that previous to every election where these are entitled to vote by the
Foundation of the College, their election shall not be for a year, or for any
stated time, but pro re nata”. This finding was approved by the Chancellor,
Lord Deskford, 10th May.

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.

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.

Two previous minutes were considered at this
"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 consider-
able 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 convened
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.

"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 nomina-
tion 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 any
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 ac-
cordingly.

Elected for four years by the Graduates. At a conference held on 6th April,
1856, between the Senatus and a deputation of the Graduates of the University,
an agreement was entered into in conformity with a scheme adopted by the
Senatus on 20th April, 1855, and sanctioned by the Chancellor, to the effect that
in future the Lord Rector, two of the four Assessors, and the four Procuratores
Nationum should be chosen by the Masters of Arts of the University (not hold-
ing mere honorary degrees), and that the Senatus should confirm the election
so made. It was further agreed that Graduates should keep their names on the
Register of the University by annual payment of 2s. 6d., or by a single life pay-
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.

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 Iodocus 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 Collegii Aberdonensis,' 5th
June, 1516. He subscribes the Foundation, 10th June, 1531. As to Boece's
pedigree, see Lord Hailes, Vol. II. p. 161, Note. Hector Boece says, l. 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, 1549, nominated William Cranston (O. C.,
xliii. 12); but the latter never acted. Bisset again resigned into the hands of
Pope Julius III., who, 20th February, 1553, nominated Alexander Anderson
(O. C., xliii. 12).
1553. Mr. Alexander Anderson.
Previously Subprincipal: also parson of Tyrie and rector of Kinkell. "In
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, being 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. Com-
mendable was he in one thing; for, when some of the reformers would have
taken away the lead and bells, repulit vim ferro." Middleton.

Cujacius, and, being made Licentiate, returned to Scotland, 1566, in order to

ministers and lay elders to reform the College, and expel the malignants. 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,

other well-disposed persons, whose names are written in a register called ' Album
Amicorum Col. Regii Aberdon'." Middleton.

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." Orem.

(probably as Subprincipal taking place of Middleton) of 1652-53, and 1656-57.

unacceptable to the country. The class of students which Mr. Middleton
takes up in 1649 amounts to 49, but dwindles down to 13 when it comes into
the hands of Mr. Rule in 1652. Mr. Rule came into the College by violence
and without minding forms. . . . He went to England where he served as a

Angus; Alexander Ker of Meanie, Aberdeen; Patrick Smith of Inveramsay,
Moray. "He was one of the masters who in the year 1714 presented and
forcibly intruded as Minister of Old Machar one Mr. John Sharp, an Episcopal
Minister, in opposition to the Presbyters of Aberdeen, who were carrying on
the settlement of Mr. Alexander Mitchel, Minister of Belhelvie, by a popular
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
or half a year's imprisonment for the share he had taken in it; the hardship
of which brought on his death, some time probably in the year 1714, before the
Queen's death in August." Gordon.
1714. Mr. Alexander Fraser.
Senior Regent and Professor of Greek. Often designated "of Powis ".
Died January, 1742.

son, Old Aberdeen, Mar; Baillie Andrew Burnet, chyrurgeon in Old Aberdeen,
Angus; Mr. John Kinderly, student, Lothian. "He died in the year 1766"
(Gordon), having held College offices for 54 years. See under "Regents," 1764.
1764, November 5. Mr. Roderick Macleod.
Senior Regent, in place of Mr. Alexander Burnet, demitted. Procurators:
as in election of Mediciner on same day. See under "Principals," 1800.
1800, June 10. William Jack, M.D.
Senior Regent. Voted for by Dr. Gerard, Mr. Ogilvie, Dr. Dauney, Sir Alex-
ander Bannerman, Dr. Jack, and four Procurators (James Forbes of Seaton,
SUBPRINCIPALS.
43
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 them-
selves 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 18th 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 11th July, 1816, Lord Ordinary Pitmilly 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 has prevailed, must furnish the rule for determining the 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 Philosophy 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

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 recog-
nised as statutory. The dispute gave rise to much bad feeling. (Cf. under
"Rectors". Min. of 2nd December, 1816.) Dr. Macpherson married, 1st, 6th
October, 1803, Ann Marcia Charters, and had issue, Martin, Samuel Charters;
and 2nd, 25th September, 1809, Christina Macleod, and had issue, Isabella,
William, Anne Maria, Christina, Janet, Hugh Martin, Margaret, Roderick
Donald, Norman, Arthur George and Lucy Jane. Died 12th March, 1854.
1854, April 7. David Thomson, M.A.
Regent. Procurators: Robert Grigor, Moray; Rev. David M'Taggart, Mar;
Rev. Robert Smith, Angus; Dr. Peter Redfern, Lothian. The electors "did
unanimously record their sympathy with Dr. Hercules Scott, whose services as
Regent, during a very long period, they highly appreciated, but whose infirm
health rendered him unable to discharge the onerous duties of Subprincipal ".
Married, 14th September, 1843, Helen Stuart, and had issue, David Meliss,
Mary Esther, Catherine Emma (m., 1877, George Sandeman), Annie, Helen
Madeline, Isabella Marjory, Edmond Stronge and Charles Harald. Died 31st

Nova Fundatio was prepared and presented to Parliament, an. 1584. . . . During
its subsistence there was no Grammarian in the College. Some student of
Theology living without the College was put in for a time to officiate for a
trifling salary. He enjoyed none of the privileges belonging to the Professors
of Humanity, by Bishop Elphingston's Fundation. The person thus employed
commonly succeeded to the first vacant Regency that happened during his

Covenanter; nevertheless he subscribed the King's Covenant, 15th January,

He was turned
out by the English, along with Principal Guild; upon which only 16 of his
32 students [entrants of 1647-48] remained at the College [graduates of
1651-52: Mr. John Strachan]. After the Restoration he was made Civilist,
which he demits anno 1669, and became Humanist, in which last office he
died. Having acquired the Hebrew language from a Jew that happened to
come to the country, the College gave him a salary of [300 merks] with the
title of Professor of Hebrew, in order to induce him to teach the students that
language, which he continued to do, along with the Humanity, till his death.
7th January, 1693, Mr. Patrick being 80 years of age, the Masters nomi-
nate his son, Mr. Thomas Gordon, as his Colleague, and find and oblige them-
selves to declare him his father's successor at his death, etc., and to grant him
a presentation, etc. [This minute not now extant.] Note, this Mr. Thomas
Gordon had been a Regent in Glasgow College; was an active person in oppo-
sition to the Revolution, for which he underwent a trial for his life before the
Court of Justiciary; was confined by them a prisoner to his father's house, his
confinement afterwards enlarged to the county, afterwards taken off altogether.
He was the first collector of the Bishops' rents of Aberdeen. He collected
crops 1695, 1696, 1697." Gordon.

Graduates of 1650-51 (apparently succeeding Patrick Gordon) and 1654-55.
In 1659, Mr. Patrick Sandilands, Subprincipal, graduates "magistro Joanne
Strachano regente in Gallias contendente". Rector of the Scots College in
Rome, 1670. "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 they 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. And thereafter, the said Mr. Strachan went abroad and
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." Orem.

Son of the Mediciner: in place of Mr. George Skene, deceased. Two candi-
dates appeared on 10th January to compete for the vacancy in consequence of
the programme issued under the ordinance of the Commissioners of Visitation : ¹
and philosophy in each university and college were fixed, and not ambulatory as now he is;
do therefore appoint and ordain that hereafter the said teacher of the Greek tongue be fixed,
and continue still to teach the same in the said first class to all that shall come to learn under
him from year to year, as constant master of the said Greek language, which he is hereby
appointed to begin to teach at and after the first day of November through the whole year,
untill the rising of the class by the ordinary vacation; so that in all that space he is to teach
only the Greek grammar and proper Greek authors, without teaching so much as any Structura
Syllogismi, or any thing else belonging to the course of philosophy, which is only to be com-
menced the next year thereafter; and this act and ordinance to take effect after the first of
November next. Likeas, for the encouragement of the said fixed teacher of the Greek, it is
hereby appointed that no scholar bred at schools in Scotland shall be admitted to learn philo-
sophy, or any part of the course thereof, in any of the colleges and universities, unless that he
have learned his Greek, at least for the ordinary year under the said fixed Greek master, and
report an authentic certification thereon; and this provision to take effect for and after the
year 1701, and no sooner. And for the better executing this act it is farther enacted, that if
there be at present any vacancy of any of the four ordinarily called masters or professors of
philosophy in any of the said colleges and universities, the same shall be supplied in the
ordinary manner by a fixed Greek master, who is to remain as said is, leaving the other three
to ascend with their philosophy classes as use is; and where there is no vacancy, the said
fixed Greek master is for this time to be chosen by the faculty (that is the meeting of the
rector, the professors and masters of each of the said colleges and universities) out of the
masters, as the said faculty shall determine, which they are hereby ordained to do betwixt
and the first day of October next. And the Greek master that shall be chosen hereby is
ordained to obey without reclaiming, with this provision nevertheless for his encouragement,
that it shall be in his option, upon any vacancy that happens of any of the said three philosophy
masters in his college or university, to betake himself to his place without any new trial; in
which case the vacancy of the Greek master shall be supplied by one to be fixed as above.
And the commission ordain letters and charges to be direct on this act as effeirs, and that the
same be furthwith printed and sent to the several universities and colleges, that none may
pretend ignorance."

Dr. Urquhart and Mr. John Gordon, son of the minister at Clunie. Professor
George Gordon objected to Dr. Urquhart, “ 1º Because the Bursars of Theologie
by the Fundatione are inhibited to studie or practise medicine, which notwith-
standing the said Dr. James doeth, and is also by ane act of the Colledge in
his favours allowed to be ane assistant to his father in the professione of
Medicine if imployed by the principall's advyce. 20 That the said Dr. James is
knowen to be of principalls and sentiments contrarie to the established Govern-

therof, and frequenting a form of worship performed by ministers discharged
and disallowed by law, so that it is most dangerous to trust the Educatione of

Dr.
Urquhart, however, expressed his willingness to resign his assistantship to his
father, and to take the usual oaths. Whereupon the masters "put in ane hatt

or head of philosophie, one of which the competitors were appoynted to draw,
each of them one, and to have a discourse and sustain theses therupon. And

Culrain. These four drew by lot on 12th March the subjects De rerum possibilitate
et impossibilitate; De prima morum regula; De principiis corporum; De origine
fontium fluviorum: each to form the subject of a discourse of half-an-hour's
length to be impugned by the others. On the 17th Simsone was elected by a
majority, four (including the Principal) to three (for Burnet) of the seven electors
(Principal, Subprincipal, Humanist, Civilist, Mediciner, and two Regents); the
professors of Mathematics and Oriental Languages came to the meeting "with-
out being called," and "would needs give their votes in favours of Mr. Burnet,”
who thereupon came in accompanied by several of his friends and continued
"with great rudeness to interrupt the proceedings". The five dissentients
subscribed a presentation to Burnet; but the Principal administered the oaths
to Simsone.

¹ Under the early foundations the Principal had to be a graduate in Divinity, and to
ecture on Theology every lawful day. The Commissioners of Visitation of 1619 reported
"that the principall [Rait] had not acquytit himselff in teaching as is prescryvit by the
fundatioun, as haifing the yeir preceiding taught no thing but sum few preceptis of the Hebrew
gramer and for practise thairof onlie the first psalme ". (O. C., xxiii. 4.) As an outcome of this
report, Bishop Patrick Forbes, Chancellor of the University, and one of the Commissioners
of Visitation, in the same year, 1619, induced the Moderators of the Presbyteries within the
Diocese of Aberdeen to unite with him in founding a Professorship of Divinity in the Univer-
sity; endowing it with 10,000 merks Scots, and retaining the patronage in their own
hands. (Pref. to Prof. John Forbes' Theses, 1620; and Contract of Sale of Cairntradlin,
O. C., lii. 12.) In 1626, the money was invested in the purchase from William Forbes of
Cragievar, of the lands of Cairntradlin; and, in 1642, a charter under the great seal con-
firmed the said lands to Professor Adam Barclay and his successors in the Chair; and pre-
scribed the mode of election of future professors, which is still adhered to :-
"Videlicet ut Professor omni tempore affuturo eligetur vir omni virtutis genere imbutus

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-

got 40l. fixed upon the town of Aberdeen, and 10l. 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 40l. if the parliament
would give them the Old Town, Seaton and Spital, which was granted them.
And so they fixed 40l. 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 Fraser, 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 40l.; but this contract they made allenarly of themselves, with-
out 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

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." Orem.
"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 grave-
stone with an inscription over him." Gordon.

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, 9th 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
£190. 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.

¹ The Scottish Universities Commissioners (1858) by an Ordinance (No. 6, Aberdeen, No.
2) constituted three Lectureships, under Dr. Murray's bequest, to be held respectively by the
Professors of Systematic Theology, Church History and Biblical Criticism. 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.
LECTURERS IN MEDICAL SCHOOL.'

1819, October 18. Dr. Robert White: Institutes of Medicine.
Resigns 29th June, 1820.
1 The origin and nature of the joint Medical School is made clear by the following
extract from the Minutes of King's College :-
"6th July, 1818.
"Said day the Medical Committee gave in their report, which was approved of, and
the tenor whereof follows:-Aberdeen, May 16, 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, 16th 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.
"1. 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.
1820, August 28. Dr. Patrick Blaikie: Surgery.
In place of Dr. Barclay, deceased.
1823, August 16. Dr. Alexander Ewing: Anatomy.
In place of Dr. Skene, now Professor of Medicine, Marischal College.
1826, November 6. Mr. Alexander Fraser, M.A.: Midwifery.
1827, April 9. Dr. William Knight: Botany.
Appointment made by Marischal College, where Dr. Knight was Professor
of Natural Philosophy. He had taught Botany voluntarily since 1823.
1828, December 6. Dr. James Torrie : Institutes of Medicine.
1830, April 16. Dr. Alexander Ewing: Surgery.
In place of Dr. Blaikie, deceased.
May 14.
Dr. William Pirrie, M.A.: Anatomy and Physiology.
November 20. Dr. William Laing, M.A.: Clinical Medicine.
The last four appointed by Marischal College: approved by King's.
1831, January 19. Dr. John Geddes: Institutes of Medicine.
In place of Dr. Torrie, resigned.
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.
"9. 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."

¹On 11th 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. Gregory,
selected as his department Institutes of Medicine and Practical Chemistry,' but changed to
'Materia Medica,' instead of former, 1st October.

the said Dr. Urqwhart to examine him and prescribe such tryalls as are usuall,
and conferre the said degree on him with all the ordinary solemnities, provided
he obtained the consent of the Chancellour of the Universitie thereto. And, the
Doctor declaring that he had already procured the said Chancellour's consent,
it was appointed that the said Mr. Androw should be examined privately in the
afternoon in the Principall's chamber by the said Doctor, in presence of the
Rector and all the masters, in all the parts of Medicine, and also should give
in an answer in write to a Casus Medicus presently proposed by the Rector,
and sett down in write to be delyvered to him by the said Doctor.
"The same day, at foure o'clock in the afternoon, conveened the Rector,
Principall and masters as was appointed, and also the said Mr. Androw Brown
who gave in an answer in write to the paper which was delivered to him in the
forenoon, with which the Rector and all the masters declared themselves weell
satisfied, judging that he hade sett down his thoughts very pertinently and
intelligibly concerning the case proposed to him. 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. Whereupon, by the unanimous consent and advice of all the masters,
immediately the Doctor created him Batchellour and Licentiate in Medicine,
and appointed that, to-morrow at two o'clock in the afternoon, the degree of
Doctor should be also publickly conferred on him in the common schoole, with
all the ceremonies and solemnities usuall and requisite in such cases, and that
all the Doctors of Divinitie and Medicine in the two towns, and other persons of
note ordinarily called in such cases, should be invited to be present at the said
solemnity. And it was further appointed that the said Mr. Androw should give
a publick specimen in presence of all these persons in a short discourse, de
febribus, and also should, according to former Acts, pay to the Principall the
soum of fyve pounds sterling, for the use of the Bibliotheck, to be employed in
buying books of medicine thereto; which the said Mr. Androw was weell
satisfied to doe, and did accordingly." Min., 25th June, 1685.

the said Mr. Androw having hade (as was appointed) before his inauguration a
short discourse, de febribus, and after his inauguration another large discourse
concerning the principles of medicine, closing with thanks to the University for
the said honour conferred upon him. And, afterwards, an ample written patent
was delyvered him, subscrybed by the Rector and all the masters in the Uni-

¹ The Album [C.] eorum qui, etc. (see p. 97), continues the record of M.D.'s down to 17th
April, 1818, but, as the transcript in Album [E.] ends, and as the new Album [H.] of Graduates
in Medicine (see Preface) begins, with Dr. Thurston's name, it has been thought as well to
abandon here the Latin entries of the older volume, and to take subsequent names directly
from the original record, the Minute Books of the Senatus, compared, for the period 1800-
1818, with Album C. and Album H., and for the period 1818-1860 with the latter.

tions as he may have undergone.
2. “If the Candidate is in practice, he shall state how long he has been a
practitioner, in what department of practice, and where.
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:—
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
Science; that his moral character is irreproachable; that he is in our judgment well qualified
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
"That
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
constitution of the University remains what it is ".

The entries of Masters in Album C are continued down to the graduation of 1811, but
the Regenting system terminated in 1800; and, as with Doctors of Medicine (supra, p. 144), it
has been thought better to abandon here the Latin entries of the older volume. Cf. Inventory
of Records in Preface. From 1800 to 1832, only the County of birth is recorded; from 1833
onwards, the Parish. Names of Honorary Graduates are taken from the Senatus Minutes.

THE NOVA FUNDATIO.
Quanquam Almae Matri aedes suae intactae, et Archiva quoque integra
manserint," writes Professor John Ker in his Donaides, p. 18, "haud leve damnum
passa est sub instauratae religionis tempus: abrogata optima celeberrimi Elphin-
stonii Institutione Universitatis primaeva, et substituta Institutione nova (Funda-
tionem Novam vulgo vocant) quae prodiit An. 1592,¹ sub hoc titulo, Collegium 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. Aberd." 2
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. Itisnow printed from the copy in Professor Knight's Collections, vol. v., collated
with the copy in Professor Gordon's Collections, vol. ii. Compare the First Book of Disci-
pline, "Of the Erection of Universities," and the terms of the other post-Reformation
foundations: "Buchanan's Reformation" of the University of S. Andrews, 1579 (printed
in the Evidence of the 1826-30 Commission, vol. iii. p. 183); the "Erectio Regia" of the
University of Glasgow, 1577 (Evidence, vol. ii. p. 239; Munimenta Univ. Glasg., vol. i.
p. 103); the Charter of the University of Edinburgh, 1582 (Evidence, vol. i., App. v. ;
Crauford's History, p. 1; Bower's History, vol. i. p. 389); and the Charter of
Marischal College and University, 1593 (Evidence, vol. iv. p. 235; Fasti Acad. Maris-
call., vol. i. p. 39).
It is not now possible to give a complete account of the origin of this Founda-
tion or to reconcile the contradictory statements made as to the extent to which its
provisions were enforced. An attempt has been made below to bring together such
scattered references to it as occur in contemporary documents.

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

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

majestie 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 majestie 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 new 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,

superiour powers. Wpon this narrative his majestie 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

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 colledge 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

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 se-
cretlie destroyed and burnt be privat persones hawing no publict warrand, we offer
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."

king, 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 majestie 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 philosophie,
wha wer 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.
(6
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
subscriptiones 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 oeco-
nomous ane cuike and tue boyes, neuir mentionat in the true fundatione, and that
with exclusion of so many professores and bursers, far moir necessarie foundit
memberis of the universitie.
"3. The bodie of this alledgit new fundatione hes neither day dait place nor
witnesses, and being called by the producers a chartour of fundatione and new gift,
yet it hes no seall nor ordeinit to be seallit, and is nether 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 lyke judgement may be
giwen upone that copie of the act of counsell alledgit subscriuit be his majestie at
Aberdene 1592, which wes ane tyme of gryt troubles and confusione in this land,
and wes done, sine cause cognitione et partibus non auditis, if ewer it was done.
"4. And for the alledgit aid and subscription of the generall assemblie, 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 veritie that ther wes no generall assemblie holdin at Edinburgh that yeir, bot
at Dundie onlie, quhair thair wes no such act maid, as may be cleirlie prowen by
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 same to 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, forsameikle
334
APPENDIX.
as the alledgit 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 soone 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 visita-
tione 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 school 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 safelie 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 the producers transgressioun; haueing ther admissiones
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 destroyit
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 sall 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
inhabiles: it is referrit to the judgement of those whome it concernes."

NOVA FUNDATIO OF KING'S COLLEGE.
Jacobus sextus Dei gratia Scotorum Rex, Omnibus et singulis vere Christianis
salutem.
Cum ad pii principis 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,
tụm 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 hanc 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 literis et moribus
recte instituendis seminarium partim nunc primum instituendum et fundandum
partim reformandum et restituendum omnino vero ordinandum et instituendum

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 sus-
tentandis nullo pacto sufficere valeant, operae praetium duximus huic nostro
Gymnasio novis proventibus a nobis munifice aucto, eam legem praescribere quae
Dei gloriae, Ecclesiae 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, quae-
cunque 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 annuis 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, pro-
ventus, aedificia, terras, hortos, ecclesiasticas mansiones et glebas, earum proventus,

parochialis sancti Macharii, rectoria et vicaria ejusdem, vocaturque Decanatus
Ecclesiae Cathedralis de Aberdeene. Item omnes decimas, firmas, annuos redditus,
proventusque Ecclesiae de Furvie, quae vocatur rectoria et vicaria de Furvie. Item
omnes decimas, redditus, proventus, emolumenta, aedificia, hortos, terras, mansiones,
glebas, et cetera quae olim pertinuerunt ad fratres Carmelitanos de Banff. Item,
omnes decimas, redditus, proventus, emolumenta, aedificia, hortos, terras, ecclesias-
ticas mansiones, glebas, et caetera Ecclesiae Divi Petri quae vocatur Ecclesia de
Spittal, seu Succentoria de Aberdeene. 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 Ioannem 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 tem-
poribus 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 pauperi-
bus 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 literis probe institutus, ad aperienda fidei mysteria et reconditos Divini
Verbi thesauros idoneus, linguarum etiam gnarus et peritus sit oportet, imprimis vero

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 saltem
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 tam 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

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 uniuş tantum suffragii jus habeat; neque.
ulli Electorum jus eligendi 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 suo 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 Principali aliae viginti quatuor bollae
farinae avenariae seu hordei, ita ut in anona percipiat tres chalderas seu quad-
raginta 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 admoni-
tus 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 necessa-
rios, qui juventuti instituendae praesint et Principali auxilientur, quorum unus proxi-
mus post Principalem Subprincipalis dicitur cui quarta classis commissa est. Hic ut
Principalis ad vitae suae spatium in eo munere permanebit, de quo postea. Horum

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 suo 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
decem 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

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 tenent, 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 bollae 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

se exerceant, ut adolescentes qui gradatim ascendunt, dignum suis studiis et ingeniis
praeceptorem reperire 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 linguis
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 uram 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,
donec 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 literis 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 Sub-

principalis, publico programmate valvis Collegii affixo, viginti dies ante Calendas
Octobris, omnibus beneficium expetentibus denunciabit, ut ad eum diem se sistant
examini per Rectorem, Decanum Facultatis, Novae Aberdoniae Ministrum, Princi-
palem, Subprincipalem, tres Regentes quibus concedimus unum suffragium, juratos
omnes, quique diligenti exploratione habita, paupertatis et doctrinae nomine eo bene-
ficio maxime egere, eoque maxime digni reperiantur, in Bursariorum album inscri-
bantur; habita tamen ejus privilegii ratione, quod piae memoriae Episcopus Gulielmus
Elphinston sui cognominis pauperibus duobus in prima Collegii erectione reservavit.
Nil quod aliud privilegium aliis quibusvis erga hoc nostrum Collegium beneficio
merito debeatur, quale illud est quod familiae et cognomento Mri. 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 corum 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, donec 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,
donec iterum ad metam decurrerint.
Oeconomum autem et Provisorem hominem bonum et industrium requirimus,
cui salus Collegii imprimis curae sit. Hic initio suae administrationis cautionem
praestabit, 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 tem-
pestive 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 praeceptori-
bus, adeoque omnibus fundatis personis, distribuere tempestive quodcunque in hac
nostra fundatione assignamus, et bona fide exsolvere ad certos anni terminos respec-
tive (prius tamen subducto pretio victus dictarum fundatarum personarum) summam

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 con-
silium, qui de remedio in omnibus Collegii imminentibus damnis mature provideant.
Electio autem Economi fiat ad eam formam quam in eligendis tribus inferioribus
Regentibus praescripsimus, qui in eo munere ad minimum per tres annos permanebit.
Et quia hujus partis sunt tempestive providcre 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, tum 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 salarii nomine assig-
namus 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 decem 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 tum 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 in 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.

APPENDIX.
Coquus etiam idoneus eligatur per Principalem, Subprincipalem, Regentes et
Provisorem, qui praeparandis cibariis et excolendo horto Gymnasii inserviat. Huic
pro laboribus et victu allocamus triginta libras; olera suis sumptibus suppeditabit
in usum membrorum dicti Collegii; 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, cavemus
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, cavemus ne
uxor ejus, filiae aut famulae intra septa Collegii nostri versentur, 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 tam
omnes Collegii nostri fundatas personas quam confluentes studiosos severa morum
disciplina contineri, et ne intermissione studiorum et moribus et literis 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 hanc
legem violaverit, tanquam indignus studiosorum numero ejiciatur.
Praedictae quoque omnes personae fundatae intra septa Gymnasii et vescantur et
dormiant; siquis autem Bursariorum venia non impetrata, 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

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,
tum autem simul egressi ab aliquo Praeceptorum (qui hebdomadatim hanc 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 hanc 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 diligen-
tissime 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 laŭream 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 malo 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
hic 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

professionem edant, eam 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 studioși, non tantum in
studiis diligentes, in moribus probos, sed erga Praeceptores et publicos ministros Collegii
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) re-
liquum 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 elec-
tionibus eadem fide ex animi sententia et in commodum reipublicae et ecclesiae
suffragium laturum, et Academiae commodis, salva pietate licet, obnixe fauturum,
neque unquam illum scientem aut volentem repugnaturum, denique Rempublicam
hanc 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. Hic sit pius,
literatus, nec tantum in humanioribus quas appellant disciplinis, sed etiam in omni
philosophia versatus, qui annuis examinationibus et promotionibus intersit et praesit,

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. Juret 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

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. Andrews and Glasgow, and of providing

of the churches of Glenmuick and Abergardaine, Slains, Furvie, Aberluthnot and
Snaw; the lands of Drumlagair, Bannakettle, Adiell, Beryhill, Collynie and Andett;
annual rents from the barony of Balhelvie; the waters of Bamf; the lands of Ord,
Mombray, Blairshinnie, Udach, Pettie, and the Hospital of S. Germains; the lands

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 col-
legii hujus principali exhibiturum omnia statuta et constitutiones que in primeva
collegii hujus fundatione continentur in quantum cum vera et orthodoxa religione in
ecclesia hac palam proposita et stabilita consistere possunt (nisi forte aliter can-
cellario 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 prae-
ceptoribus ejusdem debitam reverentiam et obedientiam exhibiturum ejusque com-
modis 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:—
66
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

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, et
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 nationali 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, juro. Insuper academiae huic almae
parenti (cui hanc ingenii culturam debeo), nutritia uti potero liberaliter me re-
laturum promitto; quod si fidem sciens et volens fefellero, arcanorum cordis reces-
suum scrutatorem, Deum ultorem et vindicem non recuso. Ita me Deus adjuvet.”
Ego A. B. coram omniscio et omnipotenti Deo, religionem et fidem in ecclesia
Scoticana ex puro Dei verbo palam propositam, ab omnibus pontificiorum et quorum-
cunque 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 recuso. 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, quem antea testem, tunc judicem et vindicem non recuso."
But the Oath as given in Middleton's Appendix to Spotswood (1677), p. 26,
resembles rather the earlier form.
(6
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 solem-
niter promitto. Quod si fidem sciens et volens fefellero, arcanorum cordis recessuum
scrutatorem Deum ultorem et vindicem non recuso. 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 profiteor. Insuper academiae huic almae parenti, cui hanc 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 debeo, 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 sugges-
tions 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. B. coram omniscio et omnipotente Deo, religionem Christianam,
quousque in sancto Dei verbo palam proponitur, publice profiteor. 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 1866 a Royal Commission was appointed to inquire "what oaths, affirma-
tions and declarations may be dispensed with or altered; and reported, inter alia :—
"Aberdeen. Oath taken by Graduates in Arts and Medicine to be abolished."
No action followed on this, however, until, on 7th Oct., 1887, the University
Court, on the motion of the Lord Rector, Emeritus-Professor Bain, approved the
abolition of Graduation Oaths, retaining, however, a Declaration in the case of
Medical Graduates.

apparently a blunder of the copyist.
