To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
in 146 1, but the Guild of Barbers existed long before that period. A century before, on account of the great demand for their services in cases of accident, they were excused from serving on juries. In 1376 they grappled with the question of unqualified practitioners by passing bye-laws prohibiting any one to set up a shop who was not approved by two masters and sworn before the Mayor. Fortunately, the Company possesses a very ancient document, dated 1388, which shows the constitution of the G...uild at that early period, and is of great historical importance. This strange mixture of shaving and surgery was not without inconvenience to the good citizens of London, and in 141 5 an attempt was made to prevent ignorant barbers from injuring His Majesty's subjects. Then came the incorporation of the Company, the preamble of whose Charter, granted by Edward IV. in 146 1 , is especially interesting. It recites that the Freemen of the Mystery of Barbers of the City of London, using the mystery or faculty of Surgery, had for a long time exercised and sustained, and still continued to exercise and sustain, great application and labour, as well about the curing and healing wounds, blows, and other infirmities, as in the letting of blood and drawing of teeth ; and that, by the ignorance and unskilfulness of some of the said barbers, as well freemen of the said city as of others, being foreign surgeons, many misfortunes had happened to divers people by the unskilfulness of such barbers and surgeons in healing and curing wounds, blows, hurts, and other infirmities ; and that it was to be feared that the like or worse evils might thereafter ensue unless a suitable remedy was speedily provided in the premises.
