Disgrifiad | Concerning the two brothers John and Edward Kenrick, who were ordained Ministers following instruction at Richard Frankland's Academy, variously at Rathmel alias Ranthmel near Giggleswick, co. York (1669 - 1674); Natland near Kendal (1674 - 1682); Calton "in Craven"(1683); Attercliffe (1684 - 1689); and Rathmel again, from 1689 to 1698 when Frankland died, having had 146 students in all. Edward Kenrick entered 22 March 1693. According to Oliver Heywood, quoted in this letter, John Chorlton set up a "teaching University" in Manchester, in 1699, admitting 19 students. Following Frankland's death, a Mr Jollie established an academy at Attercliffe which lasted until his death in 1714. A note in another hand (?Samuel Kenrick's) refers to an inscription in a book (Field's Cambridge Edition of the Septuagint, 1665) now possessed by the said S K, including John Kenrick's name, and referring to the mention of the dates of the two brothers' ordination in the life of the Rev.
