Cases of Ministers suspended or deprived by the Court of High Commission, February 18, 1634, to May 19, 1636.
IT has been so often said that the High Commission deprived ministers in large numbers, that I have thought it worth while to draw up a list of all cases of deprivation or suspension during the period of two years and three months, for which the Act Books have been preserved (State Papers Domestic, cclxi., cccxxiii.). It should be remembered that these years begin very shortly after Laud's accession to the archbishopric, and they are therefore exactly the years in which the action of the Court would be likely to be most vigorous. The names in capitals are those of persons in respect of whom the sentence was wholly remitted. Those in italics are those of persons who subsequently, before May 19, 1636, received permission to continue the exercise of their ministry any where but in the cure held by them at the time of their deprivation or suspension.
1. Deposed from the Ministry.
1634. Mar. 3. Reginald Carew, for attempt to commit a rape.
June 26. THEOPHILUS BRABOURNE, for promulgating the opinion that Saturday should be observed as the Sabbath.
2. Deprived of Benefice and suspended from the Ministry. 1634. Oct. 9. Anthony Lapthorne, for omitting large parts of the service, and reviling his parishioners and the neighbouring clergy.
Richard Murray, for acting as warden of a collegiate
church without taking the prescribed oath, and for dilapidating the property entrusted to his charge. Edmund Lyneold,' for refusal to conform.
Stephen Dennison, for personal abuse of his parishioners.
He was at first deprived of his benefice, but the sentence was changed to suspension on his expression of readiness to confer with his bishop. The result must have appeared in the succeeding volume, which has been lost.
3. Suspended from the exercise of the Ministry.
John How, for praying that the Prince 'might not be brought up in Popery, whereof there is great cause to fear.'
Nov. 6. Francis Abbott, making a disturbance in church, and reviling his parishioners and the neighbouring clergy.
