To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The Virginian cedars were not his only benefac- tion to his college. In 1720 he contributed <£300 to- wards the purchase of the advowson of Ufton Nervet in Berkshire, in the valley of the Eennet to the south- west of Reading ; and he gave £85 17s. for laying out the gardens of the college, and £109 13s. 6cL towards the improvement of the college fabric. Nor was even this all, as we shall find. Dyer's withdrawal from Oxford to Devonshire was a trial to Hearne, and his THE EIGHTEENTH CENTURY 138 death speedily followed it. Hearne laments over his old friend : "A very healthful man, a great walker, and had not he married in his old age, but lived in Oxford after his old way, he might have lived much longer, and been a very great benefactor to his college ; but the broils in the college forced him to retire." To these broils, which disturbed the last half-dozen years of Carter's tenure of the Provostship, we must presently turn. In the summer of 1717 the peace of the college was shaken by a murder, one commoner named Bull having stabbed another.
