lines, who, although the reason why he could not tell, has put himself on imperishable record, as not at all loving Dr. Fell.
Dr. John Fell's rooms were, it is so said, in Beam Hall, where Latin church-services were secretly held in the time of the Commonwealth.
He was buried in the Cathedral, and his monument is in the west bay of the nave.
John Locke appeared at Christ Church in 1652, when, and where, he does not seem to have been a very hard student. He evidently preferred the reading of light romances, and the frequenting of the society of pleasant and witty companions, to the cultivation and strengthening of his understanding.
He continued to live in Oxford for some time after his graduation, lecturing on Greek and Rhetoric and on Moral Philosophy. Later he obtained a Medical Studentship, but he never received his degree of M. D. from Christ Church. And in 1684, for alleged "seditious demeanor," he was requested by Dean John Fell to step down and out. Curiously enough, he was expelled not as John, but as "James" or as "Joseph" Locke; his name, as well as his misconduct, being regarded in a Pickwickian sense. It made no difference to the wise Judges what Nathaniel Daniel, or Daniel Nathaniel, did. He was wrong, anyway!
