The _Proctors_, or _Procurators_, exhibit their proxies for their clients; and make themselves parties for them, and draw and give pleas, or libels and allegations, in their behalf; produce witnesses, prepare causes for sentence, and attend the Advocates with the proceedings. These are also admitted by the Archbishop’s _fiat_, and introduced by two senior Proctors. They wear black robes and hoods lined with fur. The terms for the pleading and ending of causes in the civil courts, are but little different from the term times of the common law. The order as to the time of the sitting of the several courts, is as follows. The court of Arches having the pre-eminence, sits first in the morning. The court of Admiralty sits in the afternoon on the same day; and the Prerogative court also sits in the afternoon. See ARCHES, PREROGATIVE _court_, &c. DOCTORS COMMONS LIBRARY. This is a spacious room, containing a great number of books of all sorts, more particularly on civil law and history. It was greatly increased by the addition of the whole library of Sir John Gibson, Judge of the Prerogative Office, given by James Gibson, Esq; one of his descendants; and it must be continually improving, as every Bishop, at his consecration, gives at least 20_l._ and some 50, towards purchasing books for it. _Maitland._ DODDINGTON _street_, Leather lane, Holborn.† DODD’S _alley_, Nightingale lane, East Smithfield.† DODD’S _yard_, Nightingale lane, East Smithfield.† DODWELL’S _rents_, Barnaby street, Southwark.† DOG _alley_, 1.
