          By his will dated 6 Sep 1757 (proved 4 Jul 1761) he devised certain lands and tithes to the Dean and Chapter of Christ Church, Oxford, upon trust after payment of outgoings and of certain expenses in connection with the property, to pay the surplus income to “all those scholars equally share and share alike as shall be yearly chosen at the publick Westminster Election out of St.Peter’s College at Westminster to Christ Church in Oxford”, subject to certain conditions as to forfeiture by non-residence. By the Ordinances attached to the Christ Church (Oxford) Ordinance Act 1867 the income was directed to be applied, with other funds, towards the maintenance of the Westminster Junior Studentships.
          According to E,G.W.Bill, op.cit., p.105, n.2, “In 1761 Richard Frewin … bequeathed an estate near Ramsbury, Wilts, for the benefit of the Westminster Students during the period between election and admission. It proved an uncertain source of income and was sold in 1775 for the sum of £2000, which was invested in South Sea Annuities”.
