Note 68 — 1. OF THE COLLEGE OF PHYSICIANS.
Reading edition
Chambre and Linacre were in holy orders, a circumstance which has been cited against the present bye-law of the College, that no priest can be admitted; it must be remembered that it is the policy of the present day to restrain the clerical encroachments, which constituted a leading feature of the Papal usurpation; our Inns of Court observe the same rule.
