Suffice to say, Sir Eyre Coote MP was caricatured by Cruikshank for paying older boys in the Mathematical School for a session of mutual flagellation in 1815; and being caught by the school nurse. https://images.app.goo.gl/PFx6mPeLtssVEY346
Sems mild compared to a very well konown public school where, somewhere around 1910, petrol was poured over a pupil and was set alight. He did survive, scarred for life. By comparison bullying at CH was nothing much.
