Thus Master Robert Brooke, the fourth of the “schoolmasters,” is said to have refused to sign the Solemn League and Covenant, and to have flogged some of his boys for Parliamentary proclivities. He was ejected from his office in 1643. At the Restoration, though not fully restored, he was given “two chambers in cloisters and a pension of £30 a year.” After his death these two chambers were knocked into one and it became BROOKE HALL. *Brook-jumping*, _subs._ (Rugby).—_See_ HOUSE-WASHING. *Brosier* (or *Brozier*).
