VICE-CIIANCELLOMS COURT, 1114RCII 24.
TBt ATTORNILT-teItLAL V. TIM .11CINVille costekar.
Tills was a question affecting the right of appointing
a Master to Tonbridge Free School. The right was
claimed by the Corporation of Lincoln College and All
Souls, Oxford. This establishment was founded in the
seventh of Edward the Sixth. By the grant of its founder,
the right of instructing the Skinners' Company to ap-
point
a Master was vested in the College " Beatee Ma-
Tier, Cl Ootniunt Sandorum Lincolnii, Oxon." Now there
was no College at Oxford answering to that name. The
college of All Souls was called " Collegiunt aninzarum
ownium. The whole difficulty arose from the wording
„i•the grant; the Master reported that he could assign
;;) any par:icular College this right, as the description
id no; answer any of the Colleges of the University.
• Mr. HOKNE now applied to the Court on bithalf of
All Souls, to have the right declared for that College.
However doubtful the wording of the grant might
have been, this College had certainly been used to en-
joy this right. In proof of this, he cited Sir William
Blackstone and two old topographical works, where it
was taken for granted that this right was vested in that
College. He also referred to entries in the register of
Oa College, to chew that the Founder of the Free
School had connexions with All Souls. In this register
his name was marked with an aster isk, to denote that
he had a brother a member of All Souls. Upon this
evidence then of reputation, independent of the ....olds
of the grant, the Court was called upon to pronounce
in favour of All Souls.
Mr. resnisurou appeared for the College of All Souls, and Mr.
Gnaw for Lincoln Co:lege.
The N'icic.Cu.suexxl.,:ft asked what the Attorney-General said
to this?
fr.. !TART said that there was no objection on the
part of the Crown to the motion. It was proper, how-
ever, to state that the right now claimed had not been
exercised by either of
,the Colleges for two centuries;
this, in fact, it had passed from thenr into other hands.
ILe Vice-CitA:sext.z.ou said the question was to the repudiation
of the right.
IIAILT said he did not understand that the Colleges h.id re-
pudiated the right now claimed. They had merely not exercised it.
'1;:e VICE-ChIANCELLOR said, that as there was DO
(.I,:rction from any other parties, he had no difficulty in
eeciaiing that this right ought to rest in the College of!
All Souls. NVith regard to cost's, the order of the Court
was, that all the costs should be laid out of the fund.
