<p> derived by Spelman, Vossius, and others from Sax. Bidel, which signifies a crier; thus bishops, in many old Saxon MSS., are called the "Bedells of God," praecones Dei. The name is now applied in [[England]] almost exclusively to the bedells of the. universities, who carry the mace before the chancellor or vice-chancellor. Martene says that the inferior apparitors, who cited persons to court, were also called bedells. — Landon, Eccl. Dict. 2, 121. </p> <p> (See [[Beadle]]). </p> | |||

<p> [[Bishop]] of Kilmore and Ardagh, born in Essex; studied at Cambridge; superintended the translation of the [[Old]] [[Testament]] into Irish; though his virtues saved him and his family for a time from outrage by the rebels in 1641, he was imprisoned at the age of 70, and though released, died soon after (1571-1642). </p> | |||
