[167] Jeremy Collier’s _Ecclesiastical History of Great Britain_, first published in two volumes folio in 1708, 1714.

[168] Lieutenant-Colonel J. Lyons Nixon, L.G.

Hurrell Froude — Part 171

[169] [If they had had the _whole body_ of the English Church in agreement with them. The sort and amount of alteration which the writer probably contemplated may be seen in _Tracts for the Times_, Via Media.] Note, _Remains_, i., 348. So sure was Newman of R. H. F.’s posthumous approbation.

Hurrell Froude — Part 171

[170] Thomas Fowell Buxton, 1786-1845, M.P., knighted in 1840, prison reformer (brother-in-law of Mrs. Fry), and William Wilberforce’s successor as head of the Anti-slavery party in England.

Hurrell Froude — Part 171

[172] A ‘Z’ stood, in Tractarian, for an ‘Establishment man.’

[173] Thus in the _Remains_, but ‘if,’ by a misprint, in The Newman _Correspondence_, ii., 33.

[174] Keble was eleven years older than Froude, nine years older than Newman.

[175] Founded by a bequest to the S.P.G. of Christopher Codrington, 1668-1710, the munificent Fellow of All Souls, Oxford; licensed by Queen Anne; opened as a Grammar School in 1742; but not a Collegiate institution for West Indian clergy, as originally intended, until 1830.

[176] To ‘battel’ is a verb purely Oxonian by origin. Battels are a man’s College accounts for supplies from kitchen and buttery, or else all College accounts, inclusive of board, lodging, tuition, rates, and sundries.

[177] _The Arians of the Fourth Century; their Doctrine, Temper, and Conduct, chiefly as Exhibited in the Councils of the Church between A.D. 325 and A.D. 384_, by John Henry Newman, M.A., Fellow of Oriel College. London: Rivingtons, 1833. The book is dedicated to Keble. The review is in _The British Magazine_ for January, 1834, v., 67. Mr. T. Mozley thinks that _The Arians_ is the landmark of Newman’s progress from Low Church to High Church.

[178] There are two brief papers and a poem signed ‘C.’ in _The British Magazine_ Supplement, Dec. 31, 1833, in vol. iv. The matter referred to is probably that dealing ‘Apostolically’ with Confirmation and First Communion. The Editor has not been able to identify ‘C.’

[179] This still exists, the tallest, (a huge tree in Froude’s time,) being over one hundred feet high.
