have been the first time that such a complaint was made.
Indeed it appeared that from the earliest periods objections
were made to the regulations of the university and the

be (Lord Durham) fully concurred; but he could Dot
go along with the noble baron in apprehending danger
to the universities or to the church from the re'' ,
moval of the disabilities under which the Dissenters'
laboured. The noble baron was liberal; he would give
every thing required to the Dissenters but from a fear',.-
of some danger arising out of an attempt to carry bil .'
