Excerpt from A Memoir of Gabriel Goodman, D. D., Dean of Westminster During Forty Years of the Reign of Queen Elizabeth, the Restorer of the Wardenship of Ruthin: With Some Account of Ruthin School, and the Names of Its Most Eminent Scholars, Etc, , Also, of Godfrey Goodman, D. D., Bishop of Glocester From the Year 1624 to 1655, Nephew of the AboveThe Statutes of Ruthin School are given in the Appendix, because they are of general interest, describing the system of Classical Education existing at the period in which they were drawn, and also because they are so creditable to the scholarship of Dean Goodman Who composed them. It may seem a deficiency that those of the Hospital are omitted, (though a faithful general account of their contents is given in the narrative) which is the case, not from any objection to making them known, but because they are not of the foregoing description, and to prevent the Book becoming too voluminous and expensive, thus defeating the intention of dedicating what profit might accrue from the Publication to the use of the twelve Poor Pensioners of the Dean's Hospital attached to the W-ardenship.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
