  John Fell (clergyman) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Fell was made prebendary of Chichester, canon of Christ Church (July 27, 1660), dean (November 30), master of St Oswald's hospital, Worcester, chaplain to the king, and D.D.

In November 1684, at the command of the king, Fell deprived John Locke, who had incurred the royal displeasure by his friendship with Shaftesbury, and was suspected as the author of certain seditious pamphlets, of his studentship at Christ Church, summarily and without hearing his defence.
Fell had in former years cultivated Locke's friendship, had kept up a correspondence with him, and in 1663 had written a testimonial in his favour; and the ready compliance of one who could on occasion offer a stout resistance to any invasion of the privileges of the university has been severely criticised.
