History
Appointed College Porter in 1872 (with a salary of £100 pa, plus grass fines and half the gate fines, and increased by £10 pa in 1876), though he had already been employed by the College for many years, as he was given a gratuity of £15 in 1869, in consideration of long service (B/441, pp 221, 228, 232, 240). Fleet probably died in office in 1885, when James Stearn was appointed Head Porter.
