==Leoline Fellows== [[File:Leoline Jenkins tomb.jpg|thumb|right|His tombstone in the [[chapel of Jesus College, Oxford]]]] In his will, Jenkins stated: "It is but too obvious that the persons in [[Holy Orders]] employed in his [[Royal Navy|Majesty's fleet]] at sea and foreign [[Plantation (settlement or colony)|plantation]]s are too few". To address this, he established two Fellowships at Jesus College, whose holders should serve as clergy "in any of his Majesty's fleets or in his Majesty's plantations" under the direction of the [[British Admiralty|Lord High Admiral]] and the [[Bishop of London]] respectively. The last such fellow, [[Frederick de Winton]], was appointed in 1876 and held his fellowship until his death in 1932. This category of fellowship was abolished in 1877 by the Oxford and Cambridge Universities Commission, without prejudice to the rights of existing holders such as de Winton.<ref>{{cite news|title=The Rev.
