From 1398 to 1432 he was also Master of Corpus Christi College, Cambridge, where he endowed a loan chest in which college members could deposit valuable objects as security for loans taken from the chest which would be sold if the loan was not repaid.^[2] The extant chest is kept in the Parker Library, Corpus Christi College.^[4] He was buried in St Bene't's Church, which was formerly used as the college chapel.^[2]

In 1413 as Chancellor he was sent by Henry V to Rome during the Western Schism as part of a delegation to tell the two Popes that unless one would step down, the King would recognise neither.^[5]
