16. =Roger de Marston= or =Merscheton=[1048] was D.D. of Oxford and lecturer to the Franciscans before 1290. Some questions on which he disputed, perhaps before he became doctor, are preserved in a MS. at Assisi[1049]. He subsequently lectured at Cambridge as twelfth master of the friars[1050]. According to Ehrle, Marston’s theological and philosophical teaching bears strong resemblance in some respects to that of Peter John Olivi[1051]. He became thirteenth Provincial Minister perhaps at the great Chapter of Paris in 1292, certainly between 1285 (when W. of Gainsborough was appointed) and 1299 (when Hugh of Hertepol was Provincial). He is said to have been warden of Norwich and to have died in 1303[1052]. He was buried at Norwich[1053]. 17. =Alan de Wakerfeld=[1054] was at Oxford in 1269, when he represented his convent on several occasions in the controversy with the Friars Preachers[1055]. He was not yet lector. 18. =Nicholas de Ocham= occurs in the Assisi MS. as Hotham, Master Nicolaus de Hotham, and Frater N. de Ocham minor[1056]. He lectured at Oxford towards the end of the thirteenth century. Except the _quaestiones disputatae_ at Assisi, it is doubtful whether any of his works are extant[1057]. Leland says: Catalogus eruditorum Franciscanorum Nicholai Ochami meminit; cujus et depraedicat libros; _Commentarios_, videlicet, _in Sententias Petri Longobardi_, et opus, cui _De Verbo_ titulus. Scripsit libellum _De latitudine oppositionum_, ingeniosi iudicium astrologi[1058]. Cf. MSS. Paris:--Bibl. Nat. 14565 f. 173 b (sec. xiv). ‘Fratris Nicholai minoris replicationes;’ and Cambridge:--Caius Coll. 319, ‘Nicholai super 2 et 3 sententiarum, in 3 libris.’ Another Friar Nicholas Minorite, (called by Sbaralea[1059], ‘Specialis’), flourished about the same time as, or soon after, N. of Ocham, and wrote a chronicle on the Franciscan contest with the Pope, A. D. 1321-1328 (MS. Bibl. Nat. Paris, 5154: Extracts in Böhmer’s _Fontes Rer. German._ IV, 588 seq.) 19. =Walter de Knolle= was afterwards twenty-third master at Cambridge[1060]. 20. =Hugh de Hertepol= or =Hartlepool= was a friar and a man of importance in Oxford in 1282, when Devorguila appointed him to be one of the two proctors to whom the government of the new college of Balliol was entrusted; the statutes of 1282 are addressed to ‘Friar Hugh de Hertilpoll and Master William de Menyl[1061].’ It was probably some years later that Hugh became S.T.P. and lecturer to the Franciscan convent. His disputations seem to have been considered valuable and several of them are preserved[1062]. He disputed ‘in the vesperies before the inception of Friar John de Persole (i.e. Persora, his successor) at Oxford[1063].’
