Those who have this mark * are such Ancient Members of the College who had taken their Degree of Doctor before the Year 1659.

A short Account of the Institution and Nature, of the College of Physicians, London. Published by themselves, 1688. 1. The FELLOWS ARE Doctors of Physic, chosen out of the Candidates, who have been always limited to a certain Number, and are now confined to the Number of Fourscore, by His present Majesty's (King James') Graciouses Charter: Out of these are chosen the Precedent, Elects, Censors, and other Officers of the College, who, with the rest of the Fellows, are solely concerned in the Governing Part of the College, and have a Voice in the making and rescinding any Statutes, Orders, or By-Laws, relating to Physic and the Practice thereof. 2. CANDIDATES Must be Doctors in Physic, admitted to that Degree in one of our Own Universities, must not be Foreigners, and aught to have practised Physic Four Years before they are admitted into that Order; out of these, as the Seminary, the Fellowships are filled up, as they become vacant, in a perpetual Succession. 3. HONORARY FELLOWS Are such Doctors in Physic, as by reason of their being Foreigners, or having taken their Degrees in some University beyond the Seas, are not incorporated into either of Ours; or, for some other reason (having not been Candidates) are not of the Number of those who have Votes in the Affairs of the College. 4. LICENTIATES Are such other Persons Skilled in Physic, who by reason of their being Foreigners, or their not being admitted Doctors in one of Our Universities. or for their not being Eminently Learned, or by reason of their too great Youth, or such like Causes, are not capable to be Elected into the Number of the Candidates; yet may, notwithstanding, be serviceable to the Public, in taking Care of the Health of the King's Subjects, at least in some particular Diseases. NOW, of all these several Ranks and Degrees of Practisers in Physic, none of them is confined to any certain Number but the Fellows and Candidates; so that the Rest being wholly unlimited; no Person can be excluded out of the College, or debarred from Practice, but such as are so wholly illiterate and unskilful, that they dare not adventure to submit themselves to the Examination and Judgement of the Precedent and Censors of the College, either as to the Goodness of their Medicines, or their own Skill in all, or any Part of Physic; though the Precedent and Censors be Men strictly sworn to do justice to all Persons, who shall present themselves, or their Medicines, to their Scrutiny and Examination. From hence it manifestly follows, That the College of Physicians is very far from being a Monopoly, since it cannot reject any of the King's Subjects, who are duly qualified for the Exercuse of all, or any Part of Physic. Dr. BADGER's QVERIES to the Monopoly and Pretended College of PHYSICIANS. I. WHether this present Medley of Physicians, who call themselves the College, hath not justly forfeited their Charter, having notoriously violated the Fundamental Statutes of their own Society? And whether the late King James' Gracious Charter, as they call it, by Virtue whereof they have hitherto acted, even under this Government, could if Recorded, justify their Illegal and mad Proceed? II. Whether those who have taken the Degree of Doctor in foreign Universities, but were never Incorporated into one of ours, are capable of being Candidates by their Statute of Candidates, Chap. 11. P. 78. and whether those who are incapable of being Candidates can be chosen Fellows, Chap. 12. p. 93? III. Whether any, who are once entered into Holy Orders, can be admitted into the College of Physicians by their Statute of Fellows, Chap. 12. p. 100 And whether it be decent for a Preacher to meddle with women's Businesses and Diseases, ibid. p. 99 And whether it be a good Plea for a Sacrilegious Deserter of the Ministerial Function, being admitted into the College, to allege, That Presbyterian Orders are no Orders? iv Whether the Sacrilegious Deserters of the Ministry, and others, who are not qualified to be Candidates, or Fellows of the College, according to the Statutes, are fit to be entrusted with the Power of governing and enacting New Statutes to exclude others, who are duly qualified; and secure themselves in their Usurpation, to the Prejudice of our Universities, and the manifest Corruption of the Practice of Physic, tending to the Destruction of Mankind? V Whether it be not contrary to the Oath of the Precedent, to admit those into the College, who have not taken the Degree of Doctor in one of our Universities; or, who have formerly entered into Holy Orders, since this Admission is plainly contrary to the Statutes which he is sworn to observe, Ch. 2. of the Precedent, p. 15? VI Whether the Precedent and Censors, who are strictly sworn to do Justice to all Men, be not manifestly guilty both of Injustice and Perjury, in denying Admission into the College to those who are duly qualified, according to the Laws of the Land and their own Statutes? And whether from hence it does not plainly follow (according to their own way of arguing, in the said short Account of their Institution) That this pretended College of Physicians is a Monopoly, since they reject the King's Subjects, who are duly qualified for the Practice of Physic? VII. Whether their dealing with Dr. John Badger be not a plain Instance of Injustice and Perjury; who being examined (in 83.) three several times in Latin, according to their own Statutes, Chap. XVI. p. 119. and having since Regularly commenced Doctor of Physic in 1687, according to their Direction, and upon their solemn promise of granting his Admission into the College was nevertheless rejected and denied Admission, though the Precedent, at the same time, did acknowledge that there was all the Reason and Justice in the World for it? And whether their Statute of Exclusion (New-Stat. No. 16) made three Months after he presented himself to them for his Admission, was not contrived on purpose against him, contrary to their Faith and Promise? The Statutes of the College of Physicians, London, in Latin and English, are to be Sold at the Printing-Press, under the Royal-Exchange in Cornhill. LONDON, Printed in the Year, MDCXCVI.
