Historique
Matriculated 1764; 3rd Wrangler, 1768 and Chancellor’s Medalist. Fellow and Tutor, 1782, but later apparently a non-resident Fellow, who was primarily an author. Apart from publishing studies on civil liberties, gaming and duelling, suicide, happiness (a reply to Tom Paine’s Rights of Man), Egyptian mummification, and the promotion of Christianity in India, he also wrote a tragedy, The Captive Monarch in 1794, and a novel, Edington in 1796).
His younger brother Samuel was President of the College, 1778-1786, but is not the subject of a College portrait.
