Library; donor of the silver “poculum” for the use of the KSS; bequeathed £1000 towards the erection of the new Dormitory, and £1000 towards the completion of Peckwater Quadrangle, Christ Church; m. 1st, 1 Oct 1698 Anne, dau. of John Packer, Shellingford, Berks.; m. 2nd, 15 Jun 1701 Anne, widow of Henry Bull, of Oxford and of Shapwick, Somerset, and dau. of John Luffe DM, Regius Professor of Medicine, Oxford; d. 22 Jul 1710.

By his will dated 5 May 1708 (proved 21 Jul 1710), he left £1000 to the Dean and Chapter of Westminster upon trust that the same should be laid out in erecting a building for the King’s Scholars for the time being in Westminster School in such place as should be directed by the Dean and Chapter. He desired that Sir Christopher Wren (qv) and Henry Aldrich (qv), Dean of Christ Church, should be consulted “in contriveing and designeing” the building. He also gave the two-handled silver Poculum which is still used in College Hall on great occasions (this was lost at some point, and repurchased for the School in 1952).
