Excerpt from The Riot at the Great Gate of Trinity College: February 1610-11
The title Sir, which I have always expanded, is the translation Of the Latin word Dominus, which was applied to a Bachelor, just as Master Magister) was applied to the next higher degree; and, as William Cole, the antiquary, points out in a letter written to the editor Of The Gentleman's Magazine, 4 April, 17811, the Christian name is never used in the University with the addition of Sir, but the Surname Yet, when Bachelors of Arts get into the country, it is quite the reverse; for then, whether curates, chaplains, vicars, or rectors, they are constantly stiled Sir or Dominus, prefixed to both their names, to distinguish them from Masters of Arts, or Magister.

Excerpt from The Riot at the Great Gate of Trinity College: February 1610-11
The document here printed, called A Byll of Complaynt exhibited by the Fellows and Schollers of Sᵗ Ihons Colledge agaynst certayne iniuryes and outrages committed agaynst them by the stagekeepers of Trinity Colledge att ther two last comedyes, forms part of the Acta Curiœ, or Records of the Vice-Chancellor's Court, a long series of which is preserved in the Registry of the University of Cambridge. The case was heard on 11 February, 1610-11, and following days, the Minutes of each days proceedings being taken down by the Registrary, James Tabor, M.A. of Corpus Christi College, who held that office from 1600 to 1645. Mr Tabor was one of the most accurate and painstaking officers that the University has ever had; but his period was not distinguished for good handwriting, and his own was one of the worst. Further, it is evident that in taking down these Minutes he was writing against time, while the witnesses were speaking; and, unfortunately, he did not make a fair copy of his record when the case was over. We find instead a curious medley of depositions properly attested, notes for future use in court, and lists of witnesses who could depose to particular points. Moreover, there are some remarkable repetitions. The case far S. John's College is stated twice, once at full length, and once in a brief summary; and even the sentence appears in two forms, one of which is much fuller than the other.
