In the following list of Scholars, we do not deem it necessary to go farther back than the Restoration. At that period it was found that none of the persons then in possession had any legal title either to Fellowships or Scholarships: and accordingly the Fellows were appointed immediately by the King, and, after their own admission, proceeded to the election of Scholars. The names of those who were afterwards Fellows are marked thus (*); and their subsequent preferments will be found in the list of Fellows. The election of Scholars in the year 1660-1 is recorded in the College Register in the following words: "Mar. 7, 1660. Cum scholares, nobiliora Collegii membra, juxta statuta ejusdem prædicti eligi debeant Die Lunæ proxime post Dominicam Trinitatis; cumque temporum iniquitas legalem scholarium electionem (quam res Collegii necessario nunc exigunt) ante nostram in Præpositum et socios seniores Collegii prædicti admissionem protinus impediverit. Nos, Præpositus et Socii Seniores prædicti, necessitatibus Collegii prædicti consulentes, unanimi consensu assensu eligimus, et in scholares prædicti Collegii iisque commeatum (in quo nos Præpositus, &c. ipsos omnes tanquam scholares prædicti Collegii comperimus) cæteraque jura atque emolumenta ad scholares prædicti Dean of Derry. Collegii pertinentia, ex quo celebrata fuit prædicta nostra admissio (scil. 22do die Jani. A. D. 1660) decrevimus; sed ea lege ut hæc in exemplum non traherentur, et ut nisi Honoratissimi Visitatores approbent et confirment plane sint irrita— "In Dei nomine Amen. Nos quorum nomina subscribuntur præsens instrumentum, perlegimus, et quæ in eo continentur dià τὴν ἐνεστῶσαν ἀνάγκην quantam in nobis est ratificamus simul et approbamus: ita tamen ut in damnum vel prejudicium Collegii exemplo inusitato in posterum minime trahatur. 1663.
