	Oscott (St. Mary's College)
		Oscott (anciently Auscot) is a hamlet in the Perry Barr township, in the parish of Handsworth, about four miles north of Birmingham, and at the extreme south of Staffordshire.
		The first three boys entered in May, and the establishment was formally opened in November as a college for boys and ecclesiastics under the joint management of a committee of laymen and the bishop of the district.
		The roll of students declined steadily, and notwithstanding the enthusiastic celebration of the golden jubilee of the new college in 1888, the venerable institution was closed in July, 1889, to be opened in the September following as the ecclesiastical seminary for the Diocese of Birmingham.

	CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: Nicholas Cardinal Wiseman
		In 1840 Gregory XVI raised the number of English vicars Apostolic from four to eight; and Wiseman was nominated coadjutor to Bishop Walsh of the Central District, and president of Oscott College.
		He had worked under the cardinal both in Rome and at Oscott, and they were intimate friends; but their differences of character and temperament were so marked that Errington foresaw from the first, if Wiseman did not, that the new relation between them would be one full of difficulty.
		One of his last public utterances was an indignant pastoral published in May, 1864, in which, with his unfailing loyalty to the Holy See, he protested against the enthusiastic welcome of Garibaldi in England, and especially against the adulation paid by Anglican bishops to a man who had openly avowed his sympathy with Atheism.

	Cotton College - Religioni Ac Bonis Artibus
		Cotton College life lurched along with hardly much support, Old Parkers in particular not getting involved in fund raising which they were expected to embrace as in years past.
		Though 'Thosses' would help Cotton College become more self sufficient, this being the aim of every President and Headmaster before Manion, debts were incurred and it was decided to create The Cottonian Association, a body to raise funds to pay off the debts.
		Archbishop Grimshaw was a good friend to Cotton and he gave permission for this extension, which gave the college a boost and its biggest population, 225.
