[1] At a meeting of the Master and Fellows on 7 March 1799 [MCGB/4/2/1] it was reported that the College had been defrauded to a very considerable amount by the late Butler, Edward Mills. They resolved to use all legal means to recover the amount of that fraud.

[2] In 1901 the cook William Swannell died and the College resumed control of the kitchen and Buttery. A.S. Ramsey was appointed Steward and Jack French was Butler and Kitchen Manager.
