MEMORANDA OF I^^STRTJMENTS, 



AUTHORISING THE BUILDING AXD EXDOWilENT OF 



WHITTINGTOX'S COLLEGE/ 



FE03I DrGDALE, ETC. 



The Instrument of Heniy, Archbishop of Canterbury, the Papal 

 Legate, granting permission to proceed in the combined foundation of 



a "VSTiite never appears to have taken an active part in the executorship. 

 5 In a deed dated 10th Aug., 1 Henry VI., 1423, WUliamBabyngton is described 

 as Chief Justice of our Lord the King, of the Common Bench. (Rot. 153 m, 7.) 

 JEe was made a Knight of the Bath on the coronation of Henry YI. Tindal's 

 continuation of Eapin. 



c The Ordinances and Charter of Foundation of "Whittington's College are given 

 in externa, in Latin, in Dugdale's Monasticon, so that they need not be repeated 

 here. They are extremely interesting, as enabling us to trace the pedigree of our 

 hero, and also as exhibiting many of the manners and customs of that day.
