appointed, or shall afterwards become a Fellow of the said College, and where such Public
Lecturer or Professor shall have been permitted by this Board to continue in such office to
the time of his resigning his Fellowship, such Public Lecturer or Professor shall be allowed
to hold his Lectureship or Professorship for such time, and no longer, after the resignation
of his Fellowship, as shall appear to the Provost and Senior Fellows of the said CollegB to
be expedient for enabling them to provide that the Lectures to be given by such Public
Lecturer or Professor may be continued with the least intei-ruption by his successor.


Provided always, that this Order shall not be construed to extend to continue any such
Public Lecturer or Professor in his office, in any case, for any time exceeding six calendar

And it is further Ordered, That if any Public Lecturer or Professor shall be removed
from his Fellowship in Trinity College, the office of such Public Lecturer or Professor shall

of this Board the time that any Public Lecturer or Professor appointed by this Board shall
have resigned, or shall have been removed from his Fellowship.

last, in like manner as other grants to Trinity College. And it appearing to the Board that
the allowance for Exhibitions are of a very long standing. Resolved, That it be inserted in
