Transcript

Madam,

I have been this morning at Billingbeare to pay my duty to your Ladyship and should have done it before you had left the country, but was obliged to go to London the day after you came from bath, & I did not return from London till Wednesday last. However, I had the pleasure of hearing from Mr Watts, that your Ladyship was perfectly well.

I should not have presumed, Madam, to have ventured upon this application if your late kind readiness to serve my brother when the livings of Wargrove & Waltham were vacant, had not encouraged me to do what I fear you will now blame me for. But the desire of assisting a brother who is deserving of every thing I can do for him, must be my excuse.

In short, Madam, the Mastership of Magdalen College in the University of Cambridge is now vacant, as I am informed, by the death of Dr Chapman. I know your Ladyship designs this piece of preferment for a young gentleman, who for some years to come will not be capable of holding it. The request therefore which I have now to make to your Ladyship is, that you would be so kind as to present my brother to this dignity in the University, in trust only 'till the person you design it for, is of age to take it. Whatever security your Ladyship shall require for my brother's performing the terms you shall please to impose upon him, will be most readily and thankfully complied with.

Mr Aldworth, at whose house I write this, begs leave to present his best respects to your Ladyship & to join with me in this request, which give me leave to say comes from a family, who claim an immemorial right to you Ladyship's favour and protection. I must desire your Ladyship will present my duty to my vey good Lord and that you will believe me to be with the most perfect esteem and regard,

Madam,
Your Ladyship's most obliged and most humble servant Charles Hayes

Letter from John Crayter to the Countess of Portsmouth [Visitor] advising her about her choice as Barton Wallop as Master.

Transcript

Madam,

Tis not material where the person was educated whom you intend for the Mastership of Magdalen College, unless the Statutes require him to be a Cambridge man, which is not very probable. The gentleman must get a copy of Dr Chapman's nomination, for your Ladyship's guide, which he must present to the person who is to admit him, who i presume will be the Vice-Master or Senior Fellow.

I Heard the news in the corner of a coffee house, & immediately recollected your Ladyship's intentions for Mr Barton Wallop; but the College was supplied with two or three Masters before I could get half was in my letter to my Lord. There must be a bond of resignation when required, this I am persuaded my Lord will pitch upon a man of honour, where honesty and integrity will be the best security. I go to Town in a few days, & if your Ladyship can get the nomination dispatched I shall be glad to give the new master all the assistance in my power before I go into the north which will be about the latter end of this month. I am with compliments to my Lord,

You Ladyship's
most obliged and most obedient humble servant
John Crayter

The Society present their most dutiful respects to your Ladyship & beg that you will be pleased to order your Steward to et m know as soon as you have nominated a Master of this College, tht we may be in readiness to receive & to pay all proper respect to the Gentleman you shall please to appoint. I have the honour to be,

Madam,
Your Ladyship's most obliged & most obedient humble servant,

Letter from the Countess of Portsmouth to George Sandby about the the Mastership

Transcript

I believe Sir you'll be a little surprised at receiving a letter from me, but an incident has happened that I wished you to be apprised of. You may probably have heard that the Mastership of Magdalene College in Cambridge is vacant by the death of Dr ____ & I believe you know the presentation is in my gift & that I always designed it for Mr B[arton] W[allop] but as he is too young to take it, my next thought must be to fix on a person to hold it for him that is worthy to fill such a preferment and to do honour to the College & be an example worthy his in me & action & indeed I do not know anyone so likely to answer these purposes as yourself, & therefore if you think the Mastership worth your acceptance on the terms mentioned I must beg to see you as soon as possible that the vacancy may be filled immediately

Letter from George Sandby to the Countess of Portsmouth accepting the Mastership and the terms by which he was to give it up to Barton Wallop after a set number of years or on request.

Transcript

Madam,

It is the greatest pleasure to any man, of feeling, to have the esteem of those he most esteems, and therefore, I must be happy in your Ladyship's kind, and little thought of, offer to me of the Mastership of Magdalene College. If I have the honour to be placed there I shall discharge the trust as well as I can, and show a most faithful execution of it in my last act, by the delivery, of it back again into the hand of my noble benefactress. Your Ladyship is pleased to name a term of years for my holding it; but where a grandson of Lord Portsmouth's is concerned, you need only say to thy servant go! - and he goeth.

The post day at Bungay is not still Saturday but I will try that this shall meet the Yarmouth bag, that your Ladyship may know my intention of setting out from hence upon Sunday in the afternoon as soon as I have performed my duty. I will give my bones one day's rest in Fleet Street; so that if your Ladyship has ay instructions or orders for me, I can receive them there, on Wednesday, before I personally say, that I am,

Madam,
your Ladyship's most obliged & most obedient servant G. Sandby

madam,

At the same time that I acquaint your Ladyship of my being in the place, I must acquaint your Ladyship that I am leaving it again, & propose to do myself the further honour of writing to you hereafter. I got there upon Sunday evening; & by that means, so as to have my Doctor's Degree upon my back the next day. HIs Grace of Newcastle received me very civilly & I believe that it will be my turn, soon, to be his Vice-Chancellor. That will be the employment of one year; & it will be the employment of every one, to acknowledge myself,
