To all to whom these presents shall come greeting Whereas our most noble and Preamble renowned Predecessors King Henry the eight late King of this our Realm of England in his Princely wisdome deeply considering and by the example of forein well governed States and Kingdomes truly understanding how profitable beneficial and acceptable it would be unto the whole body of this Kingdome of England to restrain and suppress the excessive number of such as daily professed themselves learned and profound practisers in the Faculty of Physick whereas in truth they were men illiterate and unexperienced rather propounding unto themselves their private gain with the detriment of this Kingdome then to give relief in time of need And likewise duly considering that by the rejecting of those illiterate and unskilful practisers those that were learned grave and profound practisers in that Faculty should receive more bountiful reward and also the industrious Students of that profession would be the better encouraged in their studies and endeavours For these and many other weighty motives Recital of the Patent of incorporation causes and considerations our royal and Princely Predecessor King Henry the eight by his Letters Pattents bearing date at Westminster the three and twentieth day of September in the Tenth year of his reign of his especial grace and Princely favour did erect found and establish a Colledge Comminalty or Incorporation of Physitians in the City and Suburbs of London and for seven miles every way in distance from the same to be remain and have existence for ever and by the same Letters Pattents our aforesaid noble Predecessor did further give and grant unto John Chambre Thomas Linacre Ferdinando de Victoria Nicholas Halsewell John Francis and Robert Yaxley then learned discreet and profound practisers in the said Faculty of Physick in the foresaid City of London That they and all of the said Faculty of Physick of and in the foresaid City of London should for ever from thenceforth be in name and deed one Body Comminalty and Colledge And further by the said Letters Pattents did give and grant unto the said Colledge and Comminalty full power ability and authority for ever annually to elect and make one of the said Colledge or Comminalty to be President of the said Colledge Corporation and Comminalty And that the said President so elected and made and the said Colledge and Comminalty should have perpetual succession and a common Seal for the behoof and benefit of the said Presideut Colledge and Comminalty and their Successors for ever And also by the said Letters Pattents did further give and grant unto the said President Colledge and Com. minalty and their Successors divers and sundry other liberties priviledges immunities power ability and authority not only to and for the benefit advantage and commodity of the foresaid President Colledge and Comminalty and their Successors but also for the more certain and easier discovery speedy restraint and certain repressing of the before mentioned unskilful and illiterate practisers in the said faculty of Physick as aforesaid As by the foresaid Letters Patents remaining of record amongst other things therein contained more plainly and fully it doth and may appear Which said Letters Patents and Confirmed by Parliament 14. H. 8. all and every Grant Article and other thing contained and specified in the same were by Act of Parliament made in the xiiii year of the reign of our said noble predecessor King Henry the eight approved granted ratified and confirmed and clearly authorised and admitted by the same good lawful and available to the said body corporate and their successors for ever and that the best construction that might be invented should be made thereof and of every part and parcel thereof for the best benefit behoof power and authority of the foresaid President Colledge and Corporation of Physicians as aforesaid And further by other several Acts of Parliament divers and sundry other Priviledges liberties By other Acts. ability power and authority are and were established ordained given and granted unto the said President Colledge and Corporation of Physicians and their successors as by the said several Acts of Parliament thereof made more fully and at large it doth and may appear Sithence the making of which said Letters patents and several Acts of Parliament we do nevertheless daily find that divers enormities and abuses not as yet sufficiently provided for and New Abus●s reformed do abound and increase to the apparent damage of us and our loving Subjects of this

which words as it appears by all other Acts passed in the same Roll and as Mr. Clayton one of the keepers of the Parliament Rolls told me in all other Acts made it manifest were passed by the King himself being personally present in Parliament Upon farther search at the Rolls I found the Act of Parliament its self and had it exemplified under the Seal Dec. 18. 1658. So that the Charter its self is in one Roll and the Act of Parliament in another distinct Roll. Now as to that objection that these words le Roy le veult are not subscribed to this Act concerning Physicians I answer that neither were these words subscribed to some Acts preceding this nor to any that followed it And at the end of all this Roll 't is said the King having heard all the Acts recited and read did confirm them and commanded the Parliament to see them all observed Rastals and Poultons Statute Books our Charter and Exemplification have all of them per Nomina Praesidentis Collegii seu Communitatis c. But in Bonhams Case in Cooks Reports 't is per Nomina Praesidentis Collegii 'T was the opinion of two of our Councel that Et would make a variation and nonsuit consequently They both said that for the Tithes of London and Magna Charta there was nothing extant but prescription If a Statute be special particular or private as this of the Colledge is then if any man will have benefit by or make use of it or will charge another upon it he must plead and shew the Statute at large vide Shepard in folio pag. 917.

Annal. 1. cap. 67. Anno 1614. October 4. the Colledge being charged with Arms Sir William Paddy pleaded the priviledge of the Colledge before Sir Thomas Middleton Lord Major and a full Court of Aldermen and Sir Henry Montacue Recorder alledging that in former times by vertue of their Charter and Acts of Parliament they have been exempted from this service and that 1. The Statute 14. H. 8. confirms not only all Grants Articles and other things contained in the said Letters Patents but also for enlargement of farther Articles for the said Colledge are to be interpreted available to the said Colledge in as large and ample manner as may be taken thought and construed by the same 2. In Anno 32. H. 8. they and every of them of the said body corporate or fellowship and their successors shall at all time and times be discharged to keep any watch or ward in London or the Suburbs of the same Here observe the word any which in true right of construction was to be extended as if that clause had been in more words expressed 3. In the Act for the Chirurgeons in the first entrance there are these words It was thought expedient by the wisdome of the land to provide for men expert in the science of Physick and Chirurgery And therefore when it followeth in their Act of Parliament that the Chirurgeons by express words are exempted from the bearing of armour it may truly be inferred that Physicians are exempted as before from any watch or wards as also Physicians here recited in the preamble should receive a greater or at least the same immunity especially since Physicians are by their Science and Act of Parliament Chirurgeons without farther examination and approbation to be had from the Bishop of London whereunto mere Chirurgeons are subject An Alderman objects that by the words of this Act of Parliament viz. bearing of Armour were to free their persons but not to exempt them from the charge of the service Answer That the difference 〈…〉 and wearing of arms was such that the very Etymon of the word bearing as in many other cases comprehended both and therefore should give immunity for both 4. In all foreign or domestick wars Physicians do attend the Armies in person and for this produceth the regigister The Recorder then perusing every branch of the Statutes recited and the reasons urged and opening every part thereof at large did conclude that the Acts of Parliament did extend to give to

the Colledge as much immunity as in any sort to the Chirurgeons Whereupon the Court desired a Catalogue of the Members of the Colledge in number then 41. which was immediately done that others not of the Colledge might not delude them and so claim priviledge Hereupon ordered a dispensation of the Colledge from bearing of Arms and also a precept then awarded by the Major and Court to commit all other Physicians or Chirurgeons refusing to bear or find arms who were not by the Colledge allowed or Chirurgeons licenced according to form L. 2.

This Warrant ought to be made by advice of his Councel 3. They ought to minister no other Physick then that is set down in writing 4. That they may use the aid of those Chirurgeons named in the Warrant but of no Apothecary but to prepare and do all things themselves c.

THat whereas they were by the former Act enabled to keep Courts and Convocations and thither to convent and there to punish offenders but had no certain place limited now they have power to purchase a Hall peculiar for that purpose 2. Whereas they are by the former Act inabled to purchase only 12 l. revenue to the said Colledge now they have power by the Letters Patents to purchase to the value of 100 Marks per annum 3. Whereas the Colledge is authorised of old by suite to recover from all practisers in Physick without approbation from the Colledge 5 l. a moneth By the last Letters Patents they are authorised to punish such offenders contempt in not coming to the Colledge upon the President and Censors Warrants or in refusing to answer being come by a Fine of 40 s. and imprisonment till they have paid the same And for practising without License upon conviction they may fine the offenders in 3 l. and imprison them for seven daies and untill they have paid such fines 4. Whereas of old the Colledge might punish evil practitioners in Physick within their Limits by a Fine of 20 l. By their new Grant they may examine for Witnesses against them upon oath Chirurgeons and Apothecaries and Druggists And the Servants and Attendants upon the Sick and no others and fine them 20 s. for refusing to come or answer before them and upon conviction they may fine evill Practisers in Physick 10 l. and imprison them for 14. daies and until they pay the same Fine 5.
