The framework of the annals may be by John Somer: the entries are short and scattered--some being later than the middle of the 15{th} century--and in different hands. Several refer to Bridgwater, e. g. _ad annos_ 1241, 1411. _Ad. an._ 1433 is the entry: ‘E(clipsis) solis universalis 17 die Junii in festo S. Botulphi secundum fratrem som.’ His astronomical and astrological writings are frequently quoted: Bodl. Laud. Misc. 674 (sec. xv), fol. 24; _Regulae ad sciendum nati vitam secundum Jo. Somer, Ord. Minorum_; fol. 24{b}: ‘Hoc receptum inveni scriptum de propria manu J. Somour de ordine Minorum.’ See also fol. 42{b}, ... and fol. 99{b} of the same MS. Bodl. Digby 88 (sec. xv), ‘An extracte of freer John Somerys Kalender, of ille days in the yere,’ fol. 62{b}. Cf. Digby 119, fol. 25{b}. =Hugh Karlelle= (Carlisle) and =Thomas Bernewell=, Oxford Minorites, were among the Doctors of Theology who condemned Wiclif’s twenty-four conclusions at the council held at Blackfriars, London, on May 21st, 1382[1552]. =William Woodford= or =Widford= was one of the most determined opponents of the Wicliffites. Wadding’s desire[1553] to claim this ‘extirpator of heretics’ as a fellow-countryman has led him to identify William Woodford with the comparatively unknown Friar William of Waterford. There is no ground for this identification, and dates make it almost impossible[1554]. In his earlier days at Oxford, probably when he was B.D., Woodford was on friendly or even intimate terms with Wiclif. When the two were lecturing on the Sentences, they carried on a courteous interchange of arguments and opinions on Transubstantiation[1555]. Woodford’s earliest extant work, of which the date is known, was composed in 1381; it consists of theological lectures under the title, ‘_72 questiones de Sacramento Altaris_,’ in answer to Wiclif’s ‘Confession,’ and was written in great haste; these lectures were delivered, perhaps at the Grey Friars London, within five weeks of the publication of the ‘Confession[1556].’ He does not seem to have been D.D. at this time. On the subject of his inception, a curious piece of information has been preserved in a MS. of the 15th century; ‘when he was going from London to Oxford to incept in theology he fell among robbers, who took from him £40[1557].’
