==References == | <p> A celebrated Roman [[Catholic]] college in East Lancashire, 10 m. N. of Blackburn; established in 1794 by certain [[Jesuit]] fathers who, after the suppression of their seminary at St. Omer, in France, by the Bourbons, took up their residence at [[Bruges]] and then at Liège, but fled thence to [[England]] during the Revolution, and accepted the shelter offered them at [[Stonyhurst]] by Mr. Weld of Lulworth; there are about 300 students, and upwards of 30 masters; a preparatory school has been established at Hodder, a mile distant; in 1840 was affiliated to the University of London, for the degrees of which its students are chiefly trained; retains in its various institutions many marks of its French origin. </p> | ||
