Directed to the severall Heades of Houses , respectively ; at the beginning of Michaelmas Term .1678 . SIR ,

I do most earnestly desire you to assist me in removing the neglect of wearing the Vniversity Habits at Solemn meetings according to the Statutes : which is generally complained of . Especially the neglect of Hoods at St. Maries at Latine Sermons and Sunday mornings in the Term time . And

That you would now bring your whole House to the Latine Sermon on the first day of this next Term , and require of the Batchelors of Divinity , and Masters , to appear then in their Hoods : Giving them notice of it some time before hand , that they may not excuse it by want of warning . And let them be admonished to come to St. Maries on the Sunday mornings in Term afterwards in Habits required : Which is according to the Oath at the time of their first taking their Degrees .

That you would admonish all Batchelors of Arts to wear their Hoods at the same times at St. Maries , under the Penalties of the Statute . And let them know that the Gallery keepers shall have express orders to admit none into the Gallery without their Hoods . And further that I shall desire the Proctors and Pro-Proctors to exact penalties of such as after this warning shall neglect to appear in their Hoods and Caps at such times .

JOH. NICHOLAS Vice-Can .
