), IV. 7, S. 3 Rashdall, I. 339. 72 UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI STUDIES [176 The history of the university of Oxford from the middle to the end of the thirteenth century and beyond is largely a record of continued struggles between town and gown, of royal interfer- ence, and of grants of privileges to the university. This history, however, is of the greatest constitutional importance. In 1244, for example, the first important encroachment by the chancellor of the university upon the rightful functio...ns of the municipal government is found; consequently, this date is significant as marking a new stage in the development of the chancellor's jurisdiction. 1 Up to this time the borough of Oxford had been just as fully in possession of its rights and liberties as, for in- stance, the borough of London. But in 1244 there was a riot and an attack upon the Jewry because of some extortion practiced upon the clerks. Forty-five of the rioters were placed under ar- rest by the civil authorities and it was only at the urgent request of Robert Grosseteste, bishop of Lincoln, that they were trans- ferred to the jurisdiction of the chancellor by order of King Henry III.
