 under their Common Seal, could practise in London or within 7 miles compass of the same.

Quest. 2. Whether, by Graduates, Graduates in Physick onely are to be undetstood?

Resp. They resolved That the exception in the Statute of 14. H. 8. cap. 5. of Graduates in the two Universities, is to be understood onely of Graduates of Physick and of no others. And all resolved, That by that exception those Graduates may practise in all other places of England out of London and 7 miles of the same without examination; But not in London nor within the said Circuit of 7 miles.

Quest. 3. If Graduates not admitted to practise in London practise there, whether, for evil practice or misdemeanor therein, they be not subject to the Corporation and Government of the College?

Resp. They all agreed, That they are subject to the Government and correction of the College by an express Clause of the said Charter enacted which giveth to the President and College Supervisionem Scrutinium, Correctionem & Gubernationem as well of all persons using the practise of Medicine within the City &c.

Quest. 4. If they may not practise without admission of the College (as their Letters Patents plainly import) Then whether such Graduates are not subject to the examination, without which there were never any admitted; and without which the admission cannot be approved; because every Graduate is not absolutely good ipso facto?

Resp. It was resolved by all That all that practised or should practise Physick either in London or within the compass of seven miles of the same, must submit themselves to the examination of the President and College if they be required thereunto by their authority notwithstanding any licence, allowance or privilege given them in Oxford or Cambridge either by their degree or otherwise.
