The Grey Friars in Oxford
Little, A. G. (Andrew George)
Franciscans -- Great Britain
=David Carrewe=, S.T.P., in 1452 received 6_s._ 8_d._ under the will of
Richard Browne, alias Cordon, LL.D., Archdeacon of Rochester, &c., and
benefactor of the friars of Oxford and elsewhere[1661]. This Carrewe is
probably identical with the Friar =David Carron=, S.T.P., who, in 1448,
was with Friar Nicholas Walshe, S.T.B., appointed commissioner to elect a
Provincial of the Minorites in Ireland on the deposition of William
O’Really: their choice fell on Gilbert Walshe, a relative of Nicholas, but
O’Really was afterwards reinstated by the Pope[1662].
=John Foxholes= (co. York) on April 14th, 1451, was allowed to count
opponency from Michaelmas term to Easter as his complete opposition, on
condition that he should preach one Latin sermon in addition to those
which he was bound to deliver by the University statutes[1663]; this was
equivalent to a supplication for B.D.
We venture to identify John Foxholes with =John Foxalls= or =Foxal=,
Minorite, who lectured at Bologna and some other University[1664]. In 1475
he was appointed Archbishop of Armagh by the Pope, but died in England
within a year or two, probably without having visited his diocese[1665].
He was the author of several works[1666]--
_Expositio Universalium Scoti._ _Inc._ ‘Creberrime instantiusque rogatus.’
Printed at Venice, 1508 and 1512, under the name _Joannes Anglicus_.
_Opusculum super libros Posteriorum._
MS. Paris:--Bibl. Nationale, 6667 (A. D. 1501).
Printed at Venice, 1509 (?).
_Opusculum de primis et secundis intentionibus, juxta mentem Scoti,
Mayronis, Aureoli, Boneti, et Antonii Andreae._ _Inc._ ‘Quoniam materia de
primis.’
MS. Florence, _olim_ Bibl. S. Crucis (_nunc_ Bibl. Laurent.?).
_Expositio super metaphysicam Antonii Andreae._
MS. _olim penes Waddingum_[1667].
=John Sunday=, on May 17th, 1453, was allowed to count ‘opposition in each
of the schools’ for about seven months, together with eighteen additional
oppositions, as equivalent to the statutable opposition of one year[1668].
On June 10th, he was admitted B.D.[1669] On February 5th, 1453/4, after
finishing his lectures on the Sentences, he supplicated for D.D., and
grace to incept was conceded under certain conditions[1670].
=Richard Treners=, S.T.B., obtained a grace on December 2nd, 1454, to
substitute one additional Latin sermon after taking his degree (of D.D.)
for two responsions before the degree[1671].
=William Goddard= the elder, ‘Doctor Oxoniae Disertissimus,’ succeeded
Thomas Radnor, according to the Register of the Grey Friars of London, as
thirty-eighth Provincial Minister[1672]. Radnor was minister in 1438, and
it is probable that Goddard was not his immediate successor. At any rate,
the latter was a leading man among the friars, and probably provincial
minister between 1450 and 1460. Bishop Reginald Pecock wrote a letter
addressed _Doctori ordinis fratrum minorum Godard_, in which
