Excerpt from Early History of Balliol College And I wish to express my gratitude to the friends who have, from time to time, always most readily, helped me with the translations of the Mediaeval Latin in most cases writing entire trans lations for me. All suchhelp, in tasks where I, unaided, must have failed, has been invaluable. Especially my thanks are due to Mr. W. M. Geldart, Scholar of Balliol College, who has translated for me Dervorguilla's Statutes, and the Statutes of Sir Philip de Somervyle. And to Mr. G. W. Wheeler, m.a., of the College, and Assistant at the Bodleian Library, who has given me liberal help with the Latin Register.
