The Cyclopedic Law Dictionary
The name of an act passed in the reign of Queen Anne, which restrained Protestant dissenters from educating their own children, and forbade all tutors and schoolmasters to be present at any conventicle or dissenting place of worship. The queen died on the day when this act was to have taken effect (August 1, 1714), and it was repealed in the fifth year of Geo. I. Wharton.
