Note 397 — Chapter V · UNIVERSITY MEN AND NATIONAL MOVEMENTS

There had been a previous meeting at Lambeth Palace in which Turner, White, Tenison (then rector of S. Martin’s) and Compton, the suspended Bishop of London, took part. All were Cambridge men except Compton. At a consultation of London clergy Tillotson, then Dean of Canterbury, Sherlock, Master of the Temple, Stillingfleet, Archdeacon of London and Dean of S. Paul’s, and Patrick, Dean of Peterborough, supported Edward Fowler (an Oxonian) in a declaration that they were unable to publish the Indulgence. Every one of these men was from Cambridge.
