'Nomina ac cognomina eorum qui ad construendam Novarum Scholarum fabricam vel pecunias numeratas vel aliud aliquod munificentiae genus subministrarunt', a register of names and amounts of donation from Jan. 1612/3 to 1618 (almost entirely in one hand), with additions to about 1620, and alphabetical index.
The public bodies outside Oxford who contributed were eight London City Companies (Goldsmiths, Fishmongers, Grocers, Haberdashers, Mercers, Skinners, Salters, and Vintners), the deans and chapters of Durham and Worcester; Gray's Inn, the Middle Temple, the Inner Temple, the corporation of Sandwich, and the clergy of several dioceses and archdeaconries.
Pp. 99-134 are blank. At p. iii is a French note apparently written by 'Le Baron de Collonoy', when at Oxford on Nov. 15, 1703.
