	Henry Chichele - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		There is therefore no foundation in fact for the account (copied into the Dict.
		It is clear from Chicheley's position in the list, with eleven fellows and eight scholars, or probationer fellows, below him, that this entry does not mark his first appearance in the college, which had been going on since 1375 at least, and was chartered in 1379.
		He must have come from Winchester College in one of the earliest batches of scholars from that college, the sole feeder of New College, not from St John Baptist College, Winchester, as guessed by Dr William Hunt in the Dict.

		A dedicated team of sub-editors and researchers worked under Stephen and Lee, combining a variety of talents from veteran journalists to young scholars who cut their academic teeth on dictionary articles at a time when postgraduate historical research in British universities was still in its infancy.
		While much of the dictionary was written 'in house', the DNB also relied on external contributors, who included several respected writers and scholars of the late nineteenth century.
		The DNB was soon extended by the issue of three supplementary volumes, covering subjects who had died between 1885 and 1900 but who had not been included in the original alphabetical sequence.

	Reginald POLE (Cardinal)
		It may be found printed in QUIRINI'S great collection, Epistola Reginaldi Poli et aliorum ad se (5 vols., Brescia, 1744-57); upon these materials was founded the History of the Life of Reginald Pole by PHILIPPS (Oxford, 1764), which still retains its value.
		A more modern biography is that of "MARTIN HAILE" (Miss Mary Hallé), The Life of Reginald Pole (London, 1910); compare also ZIMMERMANN, Caridnal Pole (Freiburg, 1893); ANTONY, The Angelical Cardinal (London, 1909); LEE, Reginald Pole (London, 1888); an admirable account of Pole by GAIRDNER is given in Dict.
