Marginal Notes but according to the matter treated in the several Paragraphs and Pages in some of which he will find some rectifyings of what by chance was mis-printed I must likewise here give satisfaction to the Reader why I have added an Appendix to the whole and thereby plead my excuse why this Treatise hath been so long Printed in the greatest part before it was Published The Reasons of which are these in short Being desirous to obtain an exact account from the Registers of St. Mary Magdalen College concerning Dr. Haddons being Elected upon King Edward the 6ths Mandate knowing the case was exactly Parallel to this in hand I made application to the late Bishop of Oxford and the Vice-President but the Sickness and Death of the first and the taking away of some Keys where the Registers were preserved hindred me from recieving satisfaction from the one or other So that being unwilling to stop the Printing I was forced to pass by that Instance with a Reference to treat of it after and when by applying my self to the Learned Mr. Wood Author of the Antiquities of that University I could get no other satisfaction than appears by his Letter I have Printed I begun to despair of retriving it and so resolved to have closed all without it Yet being very unwilling to neglect any thing I could do in a matter of such Importance I applyed my self to the Right Reverend Bishop Giffard from whom after his Lordships arrival I had small encouragement but at last after repeated sollicitations by his Lordships directions and the industry of a Learned Gentleman and Conference with Mr. Wood the Register was found but so late as the matter could not otherwise be Inserted but in an Appendix I will not trouble the Courteous Reader with the distinct Reasons why other matters are there likewise inserted but only in general that some of them being committed to some hands that had mis-layed them or taken them with them upon some removals from Town I could not retrive them when the matters were Printing which they related to and some few of them have come to my knowledge since Writing of the rest so that the Candid Reader must be desired to place them according to the Notes in the Margents directing for that purpose Lastly I must desire the Reader will not peruse this by parcels or come to the Reading of it with prejudice assuring him the Author is free from passion and private design and hath endeavored to adhere to the Laws for which purpose he hath shewn the whole to some of the eminentest in that Profession and hath had Approbation accordingly N.
