Scope and content
Refers to the new edition of the Graduati Cantbrigiensis and points out there are some errors with the entries for Whay, John Buckner, William Nelson, Perceval Spencer, F. J. Robinson, Charles Fox Townshend. Also suggests that the actual academic degrees assigned to many people are incorrect. Suggests that by using all available books, university records and college archives that he might want to consider overseeing the creation of a College history of Jesus, particularly with biographical entries of its Bishops and eminent men. Says it's remarkable that Masters' work is the only one to include information about members of Colleges in any detail.
