^{page 244 note a} This document represents the membership of the College as it stood early in 1600. Dr. Thomas Worthington had assumed the government of the College in succession to Dr. Barrett in August of the preceding year. Rayne, Neville, Butler, and others mentioned as “divines not priests,” were ordained priests April 1, 1600. Curtes, however, described as “priest” and Clarkson “divine, not priest” were according to to the Douay Diaries (p. 17) ordained priests together Feb. 26, 1600. Dr. Kellison, lecturer on scholastic theology, here entitled “Vice President,” had previously acted in that capacity for Dr. Barrett, at Rheims, in 1589.
